Scanning and BIM Pricing in Toronto
Every project is quoted individually based on building size, number of floors, site accessibility, and the level of BIM detail required. Here's what to expect:
3D laser scanning — Pricing starts at approximately $1,500 for small to mid-size spaces (under 5,000 sq ft). Larger commercial buildings, multi-floor scans, and complex industrial environments are quoted after a short discovery call.
Scan-to-BIM — BIM modeling is priced based on the scope and level of detail (LOD) required. A basic architectural model for a single floor may start around $2,000, while a full MEP model for a multi-storey building will vary based on complexity.
Point cloud delivery — Included with every scan at no additional charge. Point clouds are delivered in industry-standard formats compatible with Revit, AutoCAD, ReCap, and SketchUp.

3D Scanning and BIM in Toronto — FAQs
-
3D scanning uses laser or imaging technology to capture highly accurate measurements of existing buildings and spaces, creating a precise digital replica of your site. This reduces manual site measurements, minimizes errors, and provides reliable as‑built data for design, coordination, renovations, and facility management.
-
Lightbound 3D provides 3D scanning and BIM services in Toronto, the GTA (including Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, and Oakville), and across Southern Ontario’s Golden Horseshoe. For larger or multi-site projects, service can also be arranged elsewhere in Ontario, Canada, and Europe by request.
-
Pricing depends on factors like building size, number of floors, site accessibility, and the level of BIM or CAD detail required. Most projects are quoted on a per-project basis after a short discovery call, so share your drawings or basic details and a tailored estimate will be provided.
-
Yes. BIM models and drawings are delivered in industry-standard formats compatible with Autodesk Revit, AutoCAD, and other common AEC software platforms, including SketchUP. If your team uses specific templates or standards, models can be aligned to match your workflows where requested.
-
Most commercial spaces can be scanned in one to two days depending on size and complexity. A single floor of an office building typically takes half a day, while a full multi-storey building with MEP requirements may take two to three days. We schedule scans to minimize disruption to your operations.
-
Scan-to-BIM is the process of converting 3D laser scan data into an intelligent Building Information Model. The resulting BIM model can be used in Revit, AutoCAD, and other AEC software for design coordination, renovation planning, clash detection, and facility management. It gives your team a precise digital representation of the existing building conditions.
-
Our BIM models are delivered at LOD 200, which includes accurate geometry, spatial relationships, and identifiable building components. This level of detail is the standard for most renovation, coordination, and facility management projects, giving your team a reliable digital representation of existing conditions to work from.
-
Yes. Our 3D scanning and BIM capabilities form the foundation of digital twin solutions for facility managers and building owners. A digital twin provides a living, data-rich model of your building that can be updated over time to support maintenance planning, space management, and capital improvement decisions.
