As-Built Documentation in Vancouver

Reliable as-built records are rare. Most projects either skip them or rely on hand-drawn approximations that don't survive contact with reality. LiDAR-based as-built documentation produces a verified, dimensionally accurate record of what's actually installed. We deliver these as-built scans for owners taking handover of new construction, for owners updating ageing records, and for engineering firms needing a baseline before retrofit. Output is point cloud plus 2D/3D extracted geometry.

What lidars typically finds in Vancouver

3D scans of historic facades and tower mechanical rooms, point-cloud capture for facade restoration projects.

Vancouver's built environment — high-rise concrete towers, wood-frame walk-ups, character single-family homes and pre-war duplexes — shapes how as-built documentation is delivered locally. Vancouver mixes 1910s heritage homes with 60-storey concrete towers, so leak investigations vary enormously between properties. Heritage neighbourhoods like Kitsilano and Strathcona tend to show old copper and galvanized failures; downtown and Yaletown towers more often have slab penetrations and envelope failures behind window-wall systems.

Who uses as-built documentation in Vancouver

Three sectors, one standard:

• Residential — homeowners, condo owners, strata councils and property managers in Vancouver use as-built documentation to identify hidden issues before they trigger insurance claims or compounding damage.
• Commercial — facility managers, building owners, retail and hospitality operators across Vancouver schedule as-built documentation as scheduled maintenance and emergency diagnostics.
• Government & institutional — municipal facilities, schools, health authorities, and engineering consultants procure as-built documentation with the documentation rigor public-sector audit and capital planning require.
