e-Builts provides state-of-the-art As Built Construction Photography. However our secret is simplicity of use. Good contractors have long realized that for many reasons all aspects of a project need construction photography. We inexpensively provide better photographs and organization of that information than any other approach. The e-Builts interface starts with a 2-D plan view of the project. Our software and project specific resolution requirements determine the location of our camera stations. Overlaid on the plan view are icons which when you mouse-over, access photographs of all wall & ceiling conditions at each room of the project.
e-Builts As Built Construction Photography generally involves three dated and indexed rounds at every room of a project.
- Round One – The rough framing, mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP). This is the heart and soul of a project – and it is ALL covered up. Our interface allows the room equipment, fixtures and wall surface to dissolve – showing what a builder or building owner needs to see.
- Round Two – The drywall is installed on the walls, but the ceilings are open. From this round you can verify everything from fire-caulking at penetrations, to compression struts on the acoustical ceiling grid.
- Round Three – Completed project photographs. This round provides the reference. Using our patented Thru-View technology you can look through the wall at the underlying conditions. Each of these photographs can be annotated with relevant construction documentation and are measurable.

The e-Builts approach to As Built Construction Photography:
- Measurable photographs or scan data of all conditions on a project.
- 1/8” resolution – you can see any wire, any screw and know where it is.
- Accurate – the location of all framing members and MEP components become known at the click of a mouse.
- Dated – photographs are indexed by date and location in the interface.
- Annotation – RFI’s, delays, architects supplemental instructions and sketches, O & M information can all be called up from the e-builts photograph at the click of your mouse.
- Close-out packages – We have seen pallets of paper based close-out binders that are now being replaced with all of the same information called up from the e-builts photograph at the click of your mouse.
- Insurance claim verification – The fastest way to confirm a claim is to provide photographic proof of what was there. There is little arguing with an accurate and high resolution photograph with dates and multiple views.
- Quality Control – the high resolution photographs provide realtime and backed up evidence of what and how something was built.
- Quality Assurance – As Built Construction Photography shows exactly what was built.
