Why Measured Documentation Matters in Montreal
Montreal's built environment includes a substantial volume of older commercial, institutional, and residential buildings where accurate existing-condition documentation supports renovation, retrofit, and capital planning work. Getting precise measurements before design or construction reduces the risk of encountering unknowns during execution.
Services Available in Montreal
All six services are available for Montreal and surrounding communities projects. Each engagement is scoped to a confirmed deliverable.
3D Laser Scanning
Point cloud capture for interior and exterior spaces. Registered scan data for coordination, as-built documentation, or BIM workflows.
Scan to BIM
Revit models and IFC files from point cloud data. LOD and discipline scope confirmed before the engagement starts.
As-Built Drawings
2D floor plans, sections, and elevations drafted from scan data. DWG and PDF deliverables for renovation, TI, and design.
CAD Drafting
2D CAD drawings in DWG and PDF, drafted from scan or survey data. Available as a standalone service.
3D Virtual Tours
Hosted, browser-viewable tours for remote review, leasing, facility documentation, and stakeholder access.
Drone Services
Aerial site documentation, roof imagery, orthomosaic data, and exterior site context capture.
Common Project Types in Montreal
The types of projects most commonly supported in Montreal and surrounding communities.
Older Building Renovations
Renovation projects in older Montreal commercial and institutional buildings where missing or incomplete drawings make laser scanning the first step before design begins.
Commercial Interior Retrofits
Commercial office, retail, and mixed-use retrofit projects in Montreal where existing floor layouts, ceiling conditions, and MEP systems need to be documented before tenant improvement or renovation work.
Institutional Building Documentation
Universities, hospitals, and larger institutional facilities in Montreal where complex existing conditions and renovation planning require detailed documentation across multiple floors or zones.
Industrial Facility Updates
Industrial and manufacturing facilities in the Montreal region where equipment layouts, structural conditions, and existing systems need to be documented for expansion, retrofit, or facility planning.
Point-Cloud-to-BIM Coordination
Projects where scan data is used to produce a Revit or IFC model for BIM-based design, coordination, or renovation planning on Montreal commercial or institutional work.
Heritage-Context Existing Conditions
Buildings in or near heritage-sensitive areas of Montreal where precise existing-condition data is needed before design intervention, regardless of formal heritage designation.
Typical Deliverables for Montreal Projects
File formats and scope are confirmed before the engagement starts. Common outputs for Montreal and surrounding communities projects are listed below.
| Format | Use |
|---|---|
| E57 / LAS / LAZ / RCP | Registered point cloud files for existing-condition documentation, heritage reference, or BIM coordination. |
| DWG / PDF | 2D as-built drawings: floor plans, sections, and elevations drafted from scan data. |
| RVT / IFC | Revit models and IFC files for Scan to BIM projects. LOD and discipline scope confirmed before engagement. |
| Hosted tour link | Browser-viewable 3D virtual tour for remote review or facility documentation. |
| Drone imagery | Aerial documentation for exterior and rooftop conditions where applicable. |

Requesting a Quote for a Montreal Project
Montreal projects often involve older buildings with limited existing documentation. Providing the building age, any known drawings, and the purpose of the documentation helps scope the engagement correctly.
What to send before requesting a quote
- Site address or Montreal neighbourhood
- Service needed (scanning, drawings, BIM, CAD, virtual tour, or drone)
- Project type (commercial renovation, institutional, industrial, heritage, retrofit)
- Areas to scan or document (floor count, zones, or approximate square footage)
- Required deliverables (DWG, PDF, RVT, IFC, E57, tour link)
- Existing drawings or CAD files, and approximate building era if known
- Access constraints or building management contacts
- Project timeline or deadline
Yes. On-Site Measurements supports Montreal and surrounding communities after confirming scope, access, and deliverables. Coverage includes Laval, Longueuil, Brossard, Westmount, and Saint-Laurent. Send your site location and we will confirm travel requirements.
Yes. Older buildings with limited or outdated documentation are one of the most common reasons clients request laser scanning in Montreal. Scan data can be used to produce point cloud files, as-built drawings, or Revit models depending on what your project requires.
Scan to BIM deliverables include Revit models (RVT) and IFC files. LOD and discipline scope are confirmed before the engagement starts. Scan to BIM is particularly relevant for Montreal commercial and institutional renovation projects where BIM coordination is part of the project workflow.
Our primary project coordination is in English. If you have specific language requirements, please include that in your quote request so we can discuss how to best support your project.
Include the site address, the areas to be scanned or documented, the deliverables your project requires, any existing drawings or CAD files, access constraints, and your project timeline. For older buildings, including the approximate construction era and any known documentation gaps is also helpful.
Yes. Industrial and manufacturing facilities are a common project type. Deliverables can include point cloud files for facility planning, as-built drawings for equipment layout or renovation, or CAD drafting from existing scan data.
