LocationsWhere we work.
We survey across the United States from two bases. Each page below describes the kind of work we actually do in that market and how a survey is scheduled there — not the same text with the city name swapped.
Two bases, one method
We work across the United States from Austin and New York. For a single building we mobilize from whichever base is closer; for a portfolio program we plan the sequence around travel rather than around the org chart, which is usually what makes multi-site work cheaper per building than single-site work.
What changes between markets is not the method. It is access, scheduling and building stock: what you are allowed to do, when you are allowed to do it, and what you find when you get there. Each location page describes that rather than repeating the same text with the city name swapped.
3D laser scanning in Austin, TX
Adaptive reuse, warehouse and office conversion, semiconductor and cleanroom facilities. Exterior work planned around the heat, interiors through the middle of the day.
3D laser scanning in New York, NY
Pre-war stock with no reliable drawings, occupied floors surveyed outside business hours, landmarked facades and interiors documented before alteration.
Working outside the two metros
Most of what we do sits within reach of one of the two bases, and plenty does not. Buildings elsewhere in the country are surveyed on a mobilization basis: crew and instruments travel, and travel is quoted as a line rather than hidden in a rate.
Three things decide whether that is sensible. Size, because below roughly 12,000 sq ft the mobilization dominates the cost. Sequence, because two buildings in the same region cost far less than the same two surveyed months apart. And access, because a site that can only be reached at night needs the schedule built around it rather than the other way round.
Portfolio programs are priced 10% to 20% below single-building rates for exactly this reason. Full bands are on the pricing page.
Frequently asked questions
Do you work outside Austin and New York?
Yes, across the United States. The two bases decide which crew travels and how travel is quoted, not whether we take the project.
How quickly can you be on site?
Typically one to two weeks. Controlled airspace and secure facilities add lead time on the permissions rather than on the survey itself, which is why we ask for the address early.
Can one team cover a portfolio in several states?
That is the case where this approach pays off most: one method and one data structure across every site, instead of a different record format per building.
Where is the building?
Tell us the address and what you need measured. We will say which base it runs from and what that does to the schedule.
