HoLDS Survey · Existing conditions

Your as-built survey.
Ready for design.

HoLDS Survey documents the existing building with measured as-built drawings and a 3D walkthrough your team can revisit from anywhere.

One professional iGUIDE capture brings the measurements and visual context together, so you can move into design with a clearer picture of what is there.

Give your team its time back.

Let us capture and document the existing space while your designers focus on layouts, options, and the work your client hired you for.

Revisit the site from your desk.

Check a room, revisit a visible detail, or share context through the 3D walkthrough. Resolve more questions without arranging another site visit.

Start from the same information.

Give the designer, contractor, owner, and trades a shared visual reference alongside the measured drawings. Less back-and-forth. Clearer decisions.

Your existing-condition survey

Draw from it.
Walk through it.

Plans tell you where things are. A visual record helps you understand the space. HoLDS Survey gives your project team both.

A starting point for real design work.

Dimensioned floor plans and editable CAD/DWG files document the visible existing layout. Bring the record into your design workflow instead of rebuilding it from scattered measurements and photos.

The site stays within reach.

Move through the captured rooms in your browser, use the measurement tools, and check visible finishes and conditions. Share the same reference with your team when a drawing alone does not answer the question.

iGUIDE sample imagery. The included walkthrough and optional editable model are separate deliverables.

Where an existing-condition survey helps

Old plans missing?
Start with the space itself.

For renovations: establish the existing layout before you redesign a kitchen, rework a floor, or plan an addition. Give your designer a measured starting point and a visual record of the home.

For tenant improvements: document the unit before fit-out. Help your team assess the layout, coordinate remotely, and plan around visible existing conditions—even when the original drawings are out of date.

A few practical questions

Before your Survey.

How quickly can I get my Survey drawings?

Our standard complete Survey package allows up to 7 business days after capture for drafting and HoLDS review. We confirm your delivery date when we confirm the scope. Commercial spaces, larger properties, editable 3D models, and urgent deadlines need a project-specific timeline.

Is the 3D walkthrough the same as a Revit model?

The included iGUIDE walkthrough lets your team navigate the photographed space in a browser and use its measurement tools. An editable Revit or 3D DWG model is a separate deliverable. Tell us your software, required elements, and level of detail so we can include the right model in your quote.

Can you survey an occupied home or commercial unit?

We confirm access and site readiness with you before booking. The capture needs clear access to the spaces and visible features in scope. For tenant improvements, tell us about operating hours, tenant access, ceiling access, and any areas that must be excluded.

Are these permit drawings or a legal land survey?

HoLDS Survey provides measured existing-condition documentation to support your design team. Permit design, engineering, property boundary certification, and concealed-condition investigation are separate services. Your project team should verify critical construction and fabrication dimensions on site.
