As-Built Drawings in DeSoto, TX
DeSoto As-Built Drawings, Measured on Site
Trusted by Leading Brands and Industry Leaders
What you get
DeSoto sits a short drive from the two Dallas buildings we documented in spring 2025, so the nearest proof of our work is close. We have not yet published a DeSoto project itself.
In March and April 2025 we scanned a 4,635 sq ft single-level brick and wood home in Dallas's Hillcrest area, then the 2,798 sq ft James Perse store at 3337 N Fitzhugh Ave, a finished luxury retail interior. In November 2024 we documented Brown Subaru in Amarillo, 8,200 sq ft, with a Leica RTC360; the deliverables there were floor plans, elevations and sections for a renovation.
The DeSoto deliverables follow the same menu. A registered 3D point cloud is the base. On top of it: 2D CAD drawings in AutoCAD and PDF (floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, elevations and sections), a Revit model at LOD 200–300 for BIM teams, a 360° digital twin you can open in a browser, and MEP or structural elements where you need them. BOMA or REBNY area calculations are available on request.
Process: you send the address, rough square footage and the deliverables; we return an itemized quote with travel as its own line. The scan is one visit, during business hours if you like. We register the scans into one point cloud, draft from it, and you review before the final files are delivered.
DeSoto FAQ
What does it cost?
Price follows floor area, interior complexity, the deliverables you choose and travel. Point cloud and 2D CAD is the lowest tier; Revit modeling is added on top. Everything is itemized so you can decide what to keep.
How accurate is it?
Dimensions are pulled from a registered point cloud captured with Leica RTC360 and BLK2GO scanners and Matterport Pro3. Nothing is estimated from old plans or paced off; the drawings show the building as built.
Does the building have to close?
No. We scan around tenants, staff and equipment. Warehouses, churches, clinics and shops all stay in use during the visit, and we can come after hours if that suits the building better.
Will the drawings work for my permit?
Yes. The set is prepared as the existing-conditions base your architect or engineer submits. In DeSoto, building permits go to the City's Development Services Department, Building Inspection Division, 211 E. Pleasant Run Road, through the Customer Self-Service Portal; the City has adopted the 2021 International Codes and the 2023 National Electrical Code. Your design professional files the application.
Who owns the files?
You do. CAD, PDF, Revit and the point cloud are delivered to you and your consultants.
