FAQ
What types of outdoor structures do you provide permit drawings for?
I prepare permit oriented drawings for pergolas, patio covers, covered porches, attached and freestanding outdoor structures, and other residential outdoor living improvements.
Can you prepare drawings for projects in California and New york?
Yes, I provide drafting support for projects in California and New york. Requirements vary by city and county, so the project location and applicable building department requirements must be identified before work begins.
What information is needed to start a project?
I work from sketches, dimensions, site photos, existing floor plans, property surveys, and available design references. Complete measurements and relevant project information help ensure accurate drawings.
What is included in the permit drawing package?
Depending on the selected package, deliverables may include dimensioned plans, elevations, sections, site layouts, and agreed construction details. PDF files are standard, while editable CAD files are included in selected packages.
Do your drawings guarantee building permit approval?
No. Final approval depends on the local building department, zoning requirements, site conditions, and applicable building codes. Additional information or revisions may be required during review
Do you provide stamped structural drawings and engineering calculations?
These services are not automatically included. When a project requires engineering calculations or professional seals, they must be arranged with an appropriately licensed professional under a separately agreed scope.
Can you revise drawings based on building department comments?
Yes. I can review plan check comments and revise drawings within the agreed scope. Extensive changes, additional sheets, or new engineering requirements may require an additional fee.
Can you work with existing house plans or a design that is already completed?
Yes. I can use existing architectural plans, sketches, and project references to prepare or update the required drawing package, subject to the completeness and accuracy of the supplied information.
