Design, quote, and build from the record, not from another trip.
A Groundproof Record turns one visit into a shared source of truth. Every trade that touches the job measures the same walls, sees the same ceiling heights, and quotes from the same plan, without driving out to re-check. The building is captured once; everyone works from it.
Four kinds of proof, and a plan that keeps it current.
This is the work we are quoting this week. If your need does not fit one of these, ask; if we cannot do it well, we will say so and point you to someone who can.
Proof of Conditions
Start the design from measured reality instead of a Saturday with a tape. One visit gives your designer the walkthrough, the plan, and the point cloud, and turns the "can you go back and check the window height" call into a link.
- Dimensioned plan, E57 or MatterPak included, CAD and BIM on request
- Remote re-measurement while the walkthrough is hosted, or from the point cloud you own
- Pre-purchase or pre-lease documentation for buyers and tenants
Proof of Progress
A dated scan at every milestone: pre-slab, rough-in, pre-drywall, closeout. The owner, the lender, and the sub all look at the same record, and the question "what was done by the fifteenth" has a dated answer that does not need a truck.
- Scheduled visits with a short written record each time
- Side-by-side view against the previous visit
- Lender and owner share links; closeout archive of what is behind the walls
Proof of Place
A walkthrough with dollhouse and floor plan views that lets a buyer, a guest, or a customer walk the space before they arrive, and measure the room they are about to rent, book, or lease. Embedded on your website and VRBO, linked from your Airbnb listing and the MLS, published to Google Street View if you want it there.
- Listing-ready walkthrough, schematic floor plan, and still photos from one visit
- Website and VRBO embeds; Airbnb, MLS, and Street View links
- Square-footage report; virtual defurnish on request
Proof of Loss
Water, fire, wind, and hail losses documented in 3D before anything is torn out, with measurements an estimate can be built from. An independent, dated record for the owner's file and the claim, most valuable when the loss is large, contested, or spread across several units.
- Pre-demolition and post-mitigation captures
- Sketch-ready exports for estimating platforms on request
- Documentation only: we do not adjust, estimate coverage, or negotiate
Standing Proof
The record that does not go stale. Your walkthrough stays live and shareable, gets re-scanned on a schedule, and carries the tags your team needs: shutoffs, panels, assets, access points. For short-term rentals it doubles as the listing tour and the damage baseline; for facilities it gives responders a walkthrough they can open on the way, as one input to their own pre-incident plan.
- Hosted walkthrough with measurement, tags, and access control
- Scheduled re-captures: one a year for homes, rentals, and storefronts; two a year for facilities
- Responder walkthrough link for fire and EMS, on request
What each of them does with the record.
Renovators and remodelers
Scope and price from the plan and the walkthrough. Pull room dimensions, door swings, and window heights for the estimate, then send subs the link instead of scheduling five walk-throughs. Fewer surprises at demo, fewer change orders after.
HVAC, electrical, and plumbing
Route duct runs, conduit, and supply lines from a measured model. Check chase locations, panel and equipment positions, ceiling heights, and clearances from the shop; take counts and lengths off the plan; bid the job without a second trip.
Flooring, cabinetry, glass, and finish trades
Square footage, openings, and wall lengths straight from the record. Order materials against measured reality and fabricate from the DWG, with the walkthrough open when a question comes up. Verify critical dimensions before you cut.
Architects and designers
Start from existing conditions in the formats you already use: dimensioned PDF, E57 point cloud or MatterPak, DWG, or a Revit-ready BIM file. Re-measure any wall, any time, from your desk.
Builders and general contractors
Pre-construction records for the bid set, dated captures before walls close, and a closeout record the owner keeps for the life of the building. Subs, owner, and lender all look at the same job.
Owners, property managers, and adjusters after a loss
Independent, pre-demolition documentation of the loss that anyone on the claim can measure. Xactimate-ready sketches and estimating files on request, so scoping can start from the record and everyone argues from the same dated facts.
Lenders, appraisers, and buyers
See conditions, layout, and square footage remotely. Dated, shareable documentation for the loan file, due diligence, and draw support, with the judgment calls left to the professionals who make them.
Commercial brokers, hotels, venues, and premium rentals
Let tenants, guests, and event planners walk the space before they arrive. A walkthrough with floor plan and stills, embedded on the website, linked from the listing, and published to Google if you want it there.
Facility, property, and rental operators
A living record for maintenance, vendor quotes, tenant coordination, and contents inventories, with shutoffs and panels tagged and a responder walkthrough fire and EMS can open on the way.
