What Residential Drafting Services Typically Include

What is included

Residential drafting services convert design concepts, whether from an architect's sketches, a homeowner's ideas, or an existing structure, into accurate construction drawings, including floor plans, elevations, sections, and the details needed for permitting and construction.

Many residential drafting providers also handle as-built drawings for renovation projects, measuring an existing home so accurate plans exist before design work begins.

How a project typically proceeds

A project usually starts with a site visit or review of existing plans, followed by draft floor plans and elevations for review, then final construction documents once the design is approved.

For renovation or addition projects, drafting often begins with an as-built survey of the existing structure to ensure new drawings are dimensionally accurate.
