Architectural Resource Consultants Arc

ARC has specialized in providing high quality building documentation services since 1997. We believe that owners, designers and contractors do not need to be subjected to unforeseen existing conditions or the associated costs and time delays that often accompany them. During this time, ARC has focused on perfecting the means, methods and best practices to provide extremely accurate as-built documentation using the latest in technologies such as HDS (High Definition Survey) 3D Laser Scanning and advanced photo imagery. Our mission is to assist those who recognize the complexities of existing conditions and wish to minimize their risks by proactively seeking to document such conditions in advance of them becoming an issue. By uncovering the unknown with regards to existing conditions, we save our clients both time and money while reducing their risk and liability. Some owners, designers and contractors consider the documentation of existing conditions to be an added expense. However, many have come to realize that accurate existing conditions documentation is the best insurance policy to save themselves time and money. Often one change order related to unknown existing conditions can more than pay for the cost of the survey. However, by then it’s too late. Savvy clients have come to realize that a design based on un-validated record drawings is only as good as the documentation itself. ARC is expert in building documentation and through its years of experience has accumulated the knowledge of how to avoid becoming the victim of expensive existing conditions change orders. We find and fix problems before they become expensive.
