The most requested as-built surveys for residential properties
1. Floor Plans
A home survey always begins with an accurate floor plan, the foundation of any property’s layout. Firstly, a thorough home survey must capture exterior and interior walls, windows and doors, and any visible structural elements. For that reason, These plans are essential for creating accurate, editable, and manipulable drawings, which serve as the basis for all other property documentation.
2. Roof Plans
Roof plans provide detailed information on valleys, hips, ridges, roof pitch, and any accessories. These details are crucial for accurate precision property measurements and future renovations or repairs.
3. Exterior Elevations
Exterior elevations show the building’s appearance from all sides. In essence, these drawings depict the structure from the ground level up, giving a clear representation of the property’s exterior, ideal for planning modifications or improvements to the home survey.
4. Reflected Ceiling Plans (RCP)
A reflected ceiling plan offers a top-down view of a room, illustrating ceiling treatments, grids, and the placement of light fixtures and accessories. In particular, these plans are essential for both aesthetic and functional elements of a home’s interior.
5. Electrical Plans
Electrical plan drawings capture all visible electrical equipment, including meters, panels, transformers, outlets, data jacks, and light switches. In other words, accuracy is critical in electrical documentation to ensure the safety of the property and its occupants, making precision in these home surveys vital for long-term property management.
