As-Built Documentation Services in Brooklyn

Most Brooklyn buildings have been altered many times since they were built, and the drawings on file with the city rarely match what is there. As-built documentation records the actual conditions in AutoCAD or Revit so an architect can design and file with confidence. Post an as-built job on ScanBid NY and compare bids from vendors who document Brooklyn buildings.

As-builts for brownstones and rowhouses

A renovation of an attached house starts with existing plans, sections, and elevations that show real floor-to-floor heights, stair positions, party wall thicknesses, and any rear extensions. Vendors typically scan the house and draft from the point cloud, which catches out-of-square rooms and sloped floors. The set goes straight to the architect for the DOB alteration filing.

Landmark elevations and facade documentation

In Brooklyn's historic districts, exterior changes require measured elevations for the Landmarks Preservation Commission, and buildings over six stories need facade records for Local Law 11. Scan-based elevations show every cornice, lintel, and window in its actual position. The same drawings support restoration bids and repair quantities.

Pre-drywall as-builts for owners

During a gut renovation, the vendor can document the house at rough-in and produce plans that show where the new plumbing, electrical, and ductwork actually run. The owner keeps those plans with the house so a future leak or change does not mean opening finished walls to search.

Multifamily and mixed-use buildings

Owners of walk-ups and mixed-use buildings in Bushwick, Sunset Park, and Flatbush need accurate unit plans for leasing, capital planning, and filings. Documenting the whole building once replaces years of partial sketches. Common areas, cellars, and roofs are included so the set is complete.

Who posts this kind of job

Typical turnaround

Fieldwork for a Brooklyn rowhouse typically takes half a day, with existing-conditions drawings typically delivered in one to two weeks and a Revit model in two to three.

How posting works here

Post the building type, the floors to document, the drawing format and level of detail, and what the set is for. Brooklyn vendors bid with their deliverables and schedule. Compare the bids, ask questions on the platform, and award the job.
