How Can I Stay Compliant with Building Records and As-Built Drawings?

2 Jun

Whether you’re managing a housing development, a large-scale retrofit, or a multi-site public sector project, having accurate, up-to-date documentation is essential. But keeping pace with what’s happening on site—especially in fast-moving or complex environments—isn’t always easy.

At Airey Miller Surveys, we help housing associations, local authorities, and contractors maintain clear, consistent records through laser-accurate construction documentation. Using advanced scanning technology, we capture every phase of the project as it happens—so you stay in control.

Why Construction Documentation Matters

Good documentation isn’t just about ticking boxes. It supports:

Health and safety compliance
Quality assurance
Design validation
Accurate as-built records for future maintenance
Smooth handover to asset and facilities managers

Without reliable documentation, projects risk delays, disputes, and non-compliance.

Common Issues Our Clients Face

1. Missing or Outdated Records

Paper-based drawings and static PDFs often don’t reflect what’s actually been built. This leads to confusion, errors, and liability.

2. Lack of Evidence for Handover or Disputes

If the project scope or conditions change, accurate digital records protect you against claims and provide clear evidence of work completed.

3. No Central Source of Truth

When different contractors, consultants and stakeholders all use different documentation, mistakes and miscommunication are inevitable.
