Building drawings for your permit, complete in one go
You get every drawing the authority asks for, with measurements that match between sheets. So your application does not come back with questions.
Why permits get delayed
An application with missing or unclear drawings comes back. Every round costs weeks, and a builder who works from half a set fills in the gaps himself.
- Missing elevations, section or site plan
- Measurements that don't match between drawings
- No structural drawing, so the builder guesses
- Changes that only show up on site
