Testimonials

We have employed Extreme Measures many times with great success. Their floor plan measuring service offers our business a valuable provision which we use every day in our operations, leasing and marketing activities. Their Planmine system allows us to access the latest building files anytime we need them.

Our work involves the development of large-scale urban projects and it's a challenge bringing certainty to pro formas and leasing commitments without accurate information. I find that including Extreme Measures early in the process is an invaluable decision-making benefit.

The layout and accuracy of the drawings created, in addition to the efficiency of their website are the major reasons why we selected Extreme Measures. We previously tried a few other competitors and none could offer us the quality of service we need.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are as-built floor plans?

As-built floor plans document a building exactly as it exists on site — its real, existing conditions — rather than the original design intent. Extreme Measures field-verifies every property with professional LiDAR laser scanners and laser distance meters, then delivers accurate CAD and PDF floor plans for leasing, property management, valuation, space planning, and operations. We've measured and drafted over 900 million square feet across 30 years of service.

What types of buildings do you measure?

Extreme Measures specializes in commercial, industrial, retail, medical, institutional, and multi-residential properties — including office buildings, data centers, warehouses and distribution centers, shopping centers, hospitals and medical offices, schools and campuses, and apartment communities. As-built floor plans generally aren't available for single-family homes or individual condominiums.

What deliverables come with your floor plan service?

Every standard order includes dimensionally accurate CAD (DWG) and PDF floor plans, BOMA area calculations, and unlimited access to Planmine, our online plan-management platform. Optional add-ons — reflected ceiling plans, parking and evacuation diagrams, and virtual tours — are available when a project needs them.

Are your measurements accurate enough for leasing and rent rolls?

Yes. Plans are built from on-site field measurements, not estimates or dated drawings, so the square footage holds up for leasing, rent rolls, and lease audits. Area calculations follow BOMA, IPMS, or whatever measurement standard you prefer — and as the official Editor and Illustrator of the BOMA standards, we make sure your numbers are defensible.

How long do as-built floor plans take to prepare?

For most buildings of 100,000 square feet or less, plans are typically delivered within 5 to 10 days of work commencing. After you order, each project moves through a set process: coordination, on-site laser measurement, floor plan drafting, area analysis, QA/QC, and delivery via Planmine. On site, our technicians capture roughly 20,000 to 150,000 square feet per day, depending on building type, wall density, space configuration, architectural complexity, and accessibility — a hospital typically takes more planning than a warehouse. Once drafting, area analysis, and QA/QC are complete, each plan is posted to Planmine for immediate retrieval.

What do as-built floor plans cost?

As-built floor plans are generally priced per square foot, typically ranging from 5 to 25 cents per square foot depending on the size and complexity of the project. Extreme Measures works with many large CRE and REIT portfolios, and we offer volume discounts and incentives for bulk contracts. Request a quote for an estimate on your property.

What is your service area, and do you charge for travel?

Extreme Measures deploys to any location across the United States and Canada, with projects completed in over 250 North American cities. Travel is typically factored into our per-square-foot price, so your quote reflects the full cost of getting technicians on site wherever your property is located.
