How accurate is the LiDAR scan?
Typically within ±1–2cm. Ideal for planning, layouts, and design. For construction-level tolerances, we can manually verify key dimensions.

Do I need to be at the property?
No – as long as we can gain access, we can complete the scan without supervision.

Can you scan large or complex buildings?
Yes – multi-storey and larger properties may require a slightly longer scan and processing time. Get in touch for a quote.

How soon will I get the drawings?
