Every Large Loss Starts the Same Way: One Part at a Time.

Captured Before Demolition. Written by Building, by Floor, and by Tenant.

Large commercial losses can involve multiple floors, trades, phases, systems, and stakeholders. Atlas breaks the loss into manageable parts, builds the scope methodically, and keeps every piece organized from the first walkthrough through the final estimate.

Tell us what you handle and where. We'll tell you plainly whether Atlas is a fit, what it costs, and how it works.
The Process

A large loss runs fast: emergency services, stabilization, then demolition within days. Atlas gets in first with a Matterport record and photographs of every area as found, then writes the reconstruction from a measured sketch in Xactimate®: by building, by floor, by tenant, with general conditions carried at the scale and duration the job actually has. Where an engineer's report, an environmental protocol, or the fire marshal's findings define part of the scope, Atlas writes from them.

Where Scopes Come In Short
01
The Pre-demolition Record
What isn't captured before demo can't be supported six months later. The Matterport record and the photo set by area are the only evidence that survives the dumpster, and they're the reason the estimate holds when the building it describes no longer exists.
02
General Conditions at Scale
Supervision, temporary power and heat, fencing, dumpsters, hoisting, and ongoing cleanup run for months on a large loss and are written by the week, not folded into a percentage. Dumpster planking on every placement. On a hospital or a high-rise, the elevator limits, the loading dock, the dumpster distance, and the ICRA plan are line items with a duration.
03
Code Upgrades, Itemized
Reconstruction at this scale brings structure, egress, fire protection, energy, and accessibility to current requirement. Each upgrade is written on its own line so it can be reviewed on its own.
What Comes Back

A pre-demolition Matterport record and photo set by area, then the reconstruction written by building and by floor, top down and trade by trade, with general conditions by the week and code upgrades itemized. Measured sketch.
