Can you annotate the door and window dimensions and label each type on the Floor Plans?

We can, but your drawing might look cluttered. In this situation we suggest you order a sash and door schedule instead.

Can you annotate finish materials on the floor plan?

We can, but your drawing will look cluttered. In this situation we suggest you order a Finish Schedule instead.

HISTORIC PRESERVATION

I’m working on an historic building. Do you do this type of work?

We have produced measured drawings for a number of historic projects.

I’m working on a project for HABS HAER. Are you familiar with this?

Yes very. Our method of data collection and documentation complies with the HABS HAER standard for recordation. We are able to print out our database and provide an organized HABS HAER report of all the field measurements taken.

HABS HAER specific projects can require any number of drawings. The drawings required depend on the historic significance of the building. Please specify the level of HABS HAER recordation necessary for your project.

I’m making changes to an historic residence and I want to make sure that we preserve all of the original materials. Can you document the building’s original materials?

We will not determine whether certain materials are original or not, but we will document everything we can see. An architect or historic preservation specialist can use our drawings to determine original vs. new construction.

We can provide you with a Sash and Door Schedule, a Finish Schedule, a Fixture Schedule, Detailed Interior Elevations w/materials annotated, Detailed Exterior Elevations w/materials annotated and/or Element Detail drawings of specific architectural features, shown close up, like a balustrade, or a portico.
