Precision Data. Informed Decisions.
At FASMA Design Group, we believe that every successful project begins with an accurate understanding of what already exists. Our Building Surveying services go beyond simple measurements; we provide a digital foundation for your project, eliminating guesswork and mitigating risk before the first line is drawn.
By leveraging state-of-the-art reality capture technology, we deliver comprehensive "As-Built" documentation that serves as the critical baseline for architects, engineers, facility managers, and property owners.

Our Process
From Physical Space to Digital Twin
We utilize a rigorous, technology-driven workflow to document existing conditions with speed and millimeter-level accuracy.
01. Field Capture (Reality Capture) We deploy advanced LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) scanners and high-resolution 3D cameras to capture millions of data points within your space. Unlike traditional manual measuring, which can be prone to human error, our scanners capture the geometry of the entire environment—including walls, exposed MEP systems, and structural variances—in a fraction of the time.
02. Point Cloud Processing Back in our studio, the raw scan data is registered and processed into a unified "Point Cloud"—a precise digital replica of your building. This data reveals surface deviations, floor flatness, and structural alignments that are often invisible to the naked eye.
03. Modeling & Documentation (Scan-to-BIM/CAD) We translate the Point Cloud into intelligent architectural models. Whether you need 2D CAD drawings for quick layouts or fully integrated 3D BIM (Building Information Modeling) assets, we convert complex data into usable, clean documentation that architects and contractors can trust.Precision Data.

Sector Expertise
Residential Architecture
Renovations & Additions without Surprise
For homeowners and residential architects, an accurate survey is the difference between a smooth renovation and a budget nightmare.
The Need: Older homes often settle over time, resulting in out-of-plumb walls and uneven floors. Standard blueprints rarely reflect decades of previous unrecorded renovations.
Problems We Solve: We accurately document the "quirks" of historic and existing homes. This ensures that new cabinetry, windows, and additions interface seamlessly with the old structure, eliminating the need for carpenters to make expensive field adjustments.
Commercial Retail Architecture
Speed & Lease Accuracy
In retail, square footage is revenue, and speed-to-market is critical. We support tenants and landlords in verifying lease lines and preparing for rapid fit-outs.
The Need: Retail shells are often delivered as "vanilla boxes" that deviate significantly from the landlord's original plans.
Problems We Solve: We provide "White Box" verifications that confirm the exact leasable area and ceiling heights. This allows design teams to order fixtures and merchandising racks with confidence, ensuring they fit perfectly upon arrival and helping the store open on schedule.
Hospitality Architecture
Documenting Complexity
Restaurants, hotels, and bars are dense with complex mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems that are vital to operations.
The Need: Renovating a kitchen or bar requires navigating a web of existing drain lines, hood vents, and gas piping.
Problems We Solve: We capture the precise locations of exposed MEP elements and structural columns. This allows for the design of efficient kitchen flows and bar layouts that maximize utility without clashing with immovable building infrastructure, minimizing costly downtime during renovations.
Technology & Value
Why Precision Reduces Project Costs
Investing in high-quality surveying upfront is one of the most effective ways to reduce costs during design and construction.
Eliminate Return Site Visits: Our scanners capture everything in the first pass. We don't need to return to the site to measure a missed outlet or beam height because it exists in our digital model.
Clash Detection & Prefabrication: By knowing exactly where existing ducts and pipes are located , we can design new systems that fit perfectly the first time. This accuracy allows for the off-site prefabrication of materials, reducing expensive on-site labor and waste.
Mitigate Construction Change Orders: Most change orders stem from "unforeseen conditions." Our technology uncovers these conditions early—such as walls that aren't square or sagging floors—allowing the design team to address them on paper, not during a panic on the construction site.
