Whether you’re renovating your forever home or planning a commercial project downtown, professional as built drawings serve as the foundation for any renovation or new construction project.

Worcester’s residential neighborhoods showcase over two centuries of evolution, from colonial-era structures to contemporary condominiums. This diversity creates unique documentation challenges that require both technical expertise and a deep understanding of local building practices. It is crucial to consider every aspect of existing structures, such as spatial layouts, evolving conditions, and hidden features, to ensure accurate documentation and informed decision-making.
The Highland Street Historic District exemplifies the precision required for documenting Worcester’s older residential properties. Victorian and Colonial-era homes in these neighborhoods often feature nonstandard layouts, unique details, and decades of undocumented modifications that must be carefully recorded. Homeowners planning renovations or additions find that existing plans rarely reflect current reality, making accurate as built documentation essential for permit submission and project planning.
