Using advanced geospatial technologies and over 50 years of industry expertise, we provide precise, legally reliable data to support compliance, asset management, and future development.

What is an As-Built Survey?

An as-built survey is conducted after construction to document the actual dimensions, locations, and conditions of a structure as it exists on site.

Unlike design drawings, which represent planned intent, an as-built survey reflects what has been physically constructed, including:

  • Building footprint and orientation
  • Floor levels and elevations
  • Structural elements (walls, columns, etc.)
  • Setbacks and boundaries
  • Utilities and services (where applicable)

In simple terms: it shows reality, not design.
