Working with Asbuilt Services

LOCATIONS

Where do you do work?

We work throughout the United States. We have offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago and Brooklyn and we are happy to provide services nationwide from any of these locations.

ARCHITECTS

I’m an architect and I would like my client to contract with you directly. How should we proceed?

We can contract with you or your client, whatever is easier for you. In order to put together a quote for this project, we need to ask either of you a series of questions about the building. We also need to know which drawings you require.  Please discuss the particulars with your client, decide who will answer the questions and then click here to submit the information about your project through our online quote request or call 800.318.0099 ext. 400.

INSURANCE

Are you bonded?

We carry general liability, which covers on-site damage inflicted by Asbuilt.

If you get hurt on-site, am I responsible?

This has never been a problem for us. We carry Workman’s Comp insurance, so if any of our associates were to hurt him/herself on-site he/she would be covered through our policy. Our people are responsible for determining whether or not an area is safe.

What types of insurance do you carry?

1. E&O (Professional Liability) through Canawill. E&O insurance covers expenses incurred due to inaccuracies in the drawings.

2. Workman’s Compensation through State Compensation Fund. Workman’s Comp covers injuries incurred by Asbuilt associates on-site.

3. General Liability through CNA which covers on-site damage to the client’s property caused by Asbuilt Services.

Can I get certificates of Insurance from you?

Yes. We will request them from our insurance carriers and have them sent to you.

PERMITS & REQUIREMENTS

My city planning department or architect said I need the structural information. What does this mean?

You probably need a foundation plan, roof framing plan and/or sections. All of these drawings show any observable framing. If you do not know which drawings you need, we can include all of them on your quote. We recommend reviewing this quote with your city planning department, architect or structural engineer.

I have a list of requirements that my city gave to me. Can I fax this over to you for review?

Yes. we'll review the regulations and include items that we offer in the quote. Once you receive the quote from us, we advise passing it by your architect or city planning contact for review.

CONTRACTS

My Company uses its own contract. Will you sign ours or can we include yours as an exhibit within ours?

Yes. We work with contracts like this all the time. Two things that we are inflexible about are our advance payment policy and our retainer policy.
