Our company is dedicated to providing you with the most accurate drawings and square footage measurements possible with todays technology and our drive for technical accuracy.

In single story residential properties this begins with measuring the outside walls of the property and color coding the first and last walls measured in the CAD drawing. We then examine the drawing at the junction of these two measurements to determine how close the two lines come to together. The usual difference vertically and horizontally is less 1”. We then measure the garage and, once again, we are looking to ensure the junction of the first and last measurement points are less than 1” apart vertically and horizontally.

All home second, third, basements, and more are measured from the inside. In order to know where outside walls are located from room to room, we put all internal walls into the drawing. Our first check in verifying the validity of our drawing starts as we enter the first room off the hallway. We measure the depth of the wall as we enter the room and again as we exit the room. To verify the room was measured correctly we draw a short line from last door jamb toward the first door jamb. We then measure the width of the door jamb and Bluetooth it into the drawing and color the line red. This line should come very close to touching the opposite door jamb. If it does not, we re-enter the room and check all wall measurements again until we achieve an acceptable tolerance of less than 1” vertically and horizontally.

Keep in mind that there is not such thing as a perfectly straight wall and the use of uneven stone or brick exterior veneers may skew the measurements of a wall even further.
