From massive industrial builds in the DFW metroplex to high-rise commercial towers in Uptown, we deliver the precise as-built data and reality capture solutions that keep your projects on schedule and under budget.
Construction Verification: Compare as-built scan data against design models to catch deviations in real-time, preventing costly rework.
As-Built Documentation: Get accurate 2D CAD drawings and 3D models for renovations, facility management, and compliance.
Scan-to-BIM Integration: Intelligent Revit models for MEP coordination and clash detection in complex new builds and retrofits.
From Deep Ellum to Las Colinas: Certainty for DFW’s Leading Projects
In a market with over 160,000 active construction projects, speed and accuracy are everything. A single error in as-built documentation can lead to months of delays and six-figure change orders. Our 3D laser scanning services eliminate that risk. We provide a single source of truth for architects, GCs, and engineers across the Dallas-Fort Worth area, ensuring every decision is based on millimeter-accurate data.
Whether you’re renovating a historic building in the West End, coordinating a complex MEP system in a new Frisco high-rise, or planning a plant retrofit in Garland, our reality capture solutions give you the confidence to build faster and smarter. We turn complex physical environments into actionable digital assets, ready for your Scan-to-BIM and design workflows.

Proven on the Ground in Dallas-Fort Worth
We don’t just serve Dallas; we have a track record of success on major DFW projects. Our experience gives us the insight to solve the unique challenges of the Texas construction market.
Commercial High-Rise & MEP Coordination
On a recent 40-story office tower project in downtown Dallas (anonymised client), our team was brought in to perform construction verification scans after each concrete pour. By comparing the as-built point cloud against the design model, we helped the MEP contractor identify over 150 potential clashes between HVAC, electrical, and structural elements before they became on-site problems, saving the project an estimated $500,000 and preventing months of delays. How we run that process is covered in our guide to clash detection for construction.
Industrial & Warehouse Logistics
For the booming industrial sector in areas like Garland and the Great Southwest Industrial Park, floor flatness is critical. We provide detailed floor flatness analysis to ensure concrete slabs meet the strict F-number specifications required for automated robotic systems and high-rack warehousing. Our reports give you the data to validate your work and hand over a perfect slab to the client.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do 3D scanning services cost in Dallas?
Most commercial projects in Dallas are quoted per square foot; the range depends on building complexity and the required deliverables (point cloud, 2D CAD, or BIM). See our 3D laser scanning cost guide for typical ranges, or request a quote. Factors that influence the final price include the level of detail (LOD) required for Scan-to-BIM models, site accessibility, and whether you need raw point cloud data or fully developed Revit models. We provide clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees.
What is the turnaround time for a typical Dallas project?
Speed is critical in the fast-paced Dallas construction market. For most commercial and industrial projects in DFW, our field team can mobilize and complete the on-site laser scanning within 1 to 3 days. Once the data is captured, raw point clouds can be delivered within 48 hours. If you require fully developed 2D CAD drawings or 3D Revit models (Scan-to-BIM), the turnaround time is typically 1 to 3 weeks, depending on the size of the facility and the required Level of Development (LOD).
Do you service projects outside of Dallas proper?
Yes. We serve the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and North Texas, including Fort Worth, Arlington, Plano, Irving, Frisco, McKinney, and Garland. For larger projects, we service all major Texas metros. Contact us to discuss your project location.
Can 3D scanning help with data center retrofits and MEP coordination?
Yes. With the massive growth of data centers across North Texas, precise MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) coordination is essential. Our survey-grade 3D laser scanners capture existing conditions with millimeter accuracy, allowing VDC teams to perform clash detection before installation begins. This is especially critical for retrofitting older facilities with new liquid cooling systems or upgrading HVAC infrastructure, ensuring that new equipment fits perfectly the first time and preventing costly change orders.
How accurate is a 3D laser scan for construction verification?
Our terrestrial LiDAR scanners, such as the Leica RTC360, capture up to 2 million data points per second with an accuracy of 2 to 4 millimeters. This survey-grade precision makes 3D scanning the most reliable method for construction verification. By comparing the as-built point cloud data against the original design models, Dallas contractors and engineers can instantly identify deviations in concrete pours, structural steel placement, or MEP routing before the next phase of construction begins.
