FOR HOMEOWNERS

Accurate Documentation for Renovation, Insurance, and Historic Homes

Planning a major renovation? Documenting your property for insurance? Own a historic home that needs preservation records? Our 3D scanning services give homeowners the accurate spatial data that architects, contractors, and insurance adjusters need — eliminating the measurement guesswork that leads to costly surprises during construction.

Challenges Homeowners Face

Common documentation challenges we solve for homeowners every day.

Renovation Cost Surprises

Renovation projects routinely exceed budgets because existing conditions differ from what drawings show (or because no drawings exist at all). Accurate 3D documentation before design begins reduces change orders during construction.

Insurance Documentation

After a disaster, proving pre-loss property condition is critical for insurance claims. 3D scans create a comprehensive, timestamped record of your property that supports claims with irrefutable visual evidence.

Historic Home Preservation

Historic homes have unique architectural details — ornamental plaster, custom millwork, irregular room geometries — that are nearly impossible to document with manual measurements. 3D scanning captures every detail at millimeter accuracy.

Contractor Communication

Communicating renovation scope to contractors is easier when everyone can see the same 3D model. Virtual walkthroughs reduce misunderstandings between homeowners, architects, and builders.

Residential scanning is priced by square footage. We provide a firm quote before work begins — no surprise charges.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does residential 3D scanning cost?

Residential scanning typically ranges from $0.20-$0.70 per square foot. A standard 2,000-4,000 sq ft home typically costs $1,500-$5,000 depending on the level of detail needed. Matterport virtual tours start at $500 for standard homes. We provide a firm quote after understanding your project needs.

How long does it take to scan a house?

Most homes take 2-6 hours to scan, depending on size and complexity. A Matterport virtual tour of a standard home takes 1-3 hours. We schedule at your convenience, including weekends.

Do I need to move furniture before scanning?

For Matterport virtual tours, tidying is recommended for marketing-quality results. For laser scanning (renovation/insurance documentation), furniture does not need to be removed — our scanners capture the room geometry around furnishings. We will note areas obscured by large items.

Can 3D scans help with insurance claims?

Yes. Pre-loss 3D scans provide irrefutable evidence of property condition, contents, and finishes before a disaster occurs. After an event, the scan data supports claims by documenting exactly what existed and its condition. Many high-value homeowners now scan their properties proactively for this reason.

Will my architect be able to use the scan data?

Yes. We deliver point clouds in standard formats (E57, RCP) that import directly into Revit, AutoCAD, SketchUp, and other design software. We also provide 2D floor plans in PDF and DWG format. Your architect will have everything needed to begin design without additional site measurements.
