5M+ Sqft Documented
Outdated Plans Cost You Money
Regardless of the renovation, tenant improvement, or acquisition project you're working on, you'll likely start with the same question: What are we actually working with?
Too often, the answer isn't exactly good news: outdated drawings and incorrect CAD files, leaving you with no choice but to make assumptions based on incomplete information. All too often, this can result in change orders, rework, delays, and finger-pointing, all of which could be avoided if you had accurate data from the start.
When you're dealing with outdated or inaccurate files, you're likely to end up with:
Drawings that don't match reality
Disputes about square footage
Field conditions that surprise you on-site
Rework that eats into your budget
Thankfully for your budget (and the sanity of your team!), we've provided a solution to help you keep your projects on track without any unwelcome surprises or unnecessary financial expense.
LiDAR-Verified Accurate Documentation You Can Trust
HosScans captures existing conditions using advanced LiDAR scanning technology, then verifies and processes that data into usable deliverables your team can act on immediately.
Rather than simply handing you raw point clouds and wishing you luck, we offer practical, decision-ready project documentation. All our scans go through a strict quality assurance process, so we can guarantee they meet as-built drawing standards for accuracy, completeness, and consistency before they reach your hands.
Services We Offer
Every one of our as-built projects is scoped to your specific needs. When you use our as-built documentation services, here's what we typically deliver:

Square Footage Verification: Know What You're Actually Buying
Anyone in this industry knows that property records can and do lie. Original plans get outdated, and county CAD data often contains errors. When square footage has a direct effect on things like pricing, lease rates, and tax assessments, making assumptions can be an expensive risk.
Our square footage verification eliminates the need for guesswork, delivering precise, LiDAR-measured calculations of actual building area. Rather than going with what someone claims exists, we document what's actually there.

Case Study: 5,000 Sqft Discrepancy Identified Before Closing
We recently worked with a Dallas commercial real estate firm that wanted to verify square footage before acquiring a property. Our scan revealed the building was 5,000 sqft smaller than seller representations; a discrepancy masked by outdated plans and incorrect county CAD records.
The result? We were able to help the client identify a potential six-figure overpayment before closing, so they could avoid making an expensive mistake.

Our Process
We've carefully designed our process for accuracy and efficiency. When you choose us for your as-built documents, here's what to expect:
%201.png)
01
Quote and Scope
When you first reach out to us, we'll start by discussing your project goals and required deliverables, along with your expected timeline. We'll use this information to provide you with a clear quote with no hidden fees.
02
Site Scanning
Once we've agreed on the work, our team will arrange a day to arrive on-site with NavVis and Leica equipment. We're able to scan most spaces in a single visit, meaning no extended disruptions to your operations.
03
Processing & QC
The data we've captured then goes through our quality control process. At this stage, we'll verify that everything is accurate and check for completeness. We'll also flag any areas that require a second look from our team.

04
Deliverable Production
When processing is complete, we'll convert point clouds into your requested deliverables. That could be precise as-built drawings, models, measurements, virtual access, or a combination of several, depending on what you need.
05
Review & Handoff
Before we wrap up, we'll walk you through the deliverables and confirm that the detail provided is what is needed for the project. If you have any questions or additional requests, now is the best time to discuss them with us.
