Permit-Ready Plans
Comprehensive, permit-ready drawing sets for residential and commercial projects. We coordinate design, engineering, and all required disciplines, working with qualified professional partners when specialized services are needed.
What You Receive
Every Permit-Ready Drawing Package is carefully developed and coordinated to include the essential plans and technical information required for permitting and construction:
- 01Dimensioned floor plans with room layouts, dimensions, and project information
- 02Exterior elevations showing the design, heights, materials, and finishes
- 03Roof plans with roof configuration, slopes, overhangs, and applicable details
- 04Wall sections and construction details required to clearly communicate the building design
- 05Door, window, and lintel schedules coordinated with the design plans
- 06Electrical and plumbing plans developed according to the project scope
- 07Foundation plans, coordinated with a licensed structural partner when the project requires it
- 08Civil and site plans, when required based on the property and jurisdiction
Each package is tailored to the specific project and local permitting requirements, bringing the necessary disciplines together into one coordinated set ready for permit submission.
From First Conversation to Permit
- 01
Our process starts with understanding your vision, project needs, and goals. We identify the documentation required, define the complete scope, and prepare a clear proposal covering the services needed for your project.
- 02
From design and engineering coordination to permit-ready plans and city submission, our team guides you through every phase, keeping you informed and available to answer questions along the way.
- 03
When additional services are required, we coordinate with our trusted professional partners, including surveyors, civil and septic professionals, truss engineers, and other specialists, to help keep everything moving under one streamlined process.
- 04
Our goal is simple: handle the complexity, coordinate the process, and get you ready to build.
When You Need Permit-Ready Plans
- Before designing a renovation, an addition, or a tenant improvement
- Before applying for a permit on an existing building
- When a building changes hands and the new owner has no usable drawings
- For lease exhibits, rentable area calculations, and space management
- For facility records after a construction project closes out
- When an insurance claim or a code compliance review requires documented conditions
- Before a contractor prices work in a building nobody has measured recently
Turnaround and How We Quote
We quote after we understand three things: the project area, the level of detail you need, and how accessible the site is. A single-story project with open access and a multi-tenant project with restricted hours are different projects at the same square footage. Schedule follows the same three variables, plus how quickly site information and decisions can be confirmed. We give you a written fee and a delivery date before any work starts, and we do not revise either one without telling you why. Send the address, the approximate area, and what you plan to do with the drawings, and we will come back with a number.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will you handle permits and city approvals, or do I need to?
We handle it. Our permitting team manages the pipeline with the city or county on your behalf, from submission through the comment cycle until the permit is issued, so you are not the one chasing a jurisdiction or interpreting a correction letter. Permitting is a separate service with its own price rather than something bundled into the design scope automatically.
How long does it typically take to get a permit approved?
It depends on the jurisdiction. Once we submit, our own turnaround on any city or county comments is 1 to 2 business days. The review time on the jurisdiction's side varies by city and county and is outside our control, which is why we do not promise a date. We track the submission closely and keep you updated at every step.
What is the difference between plan review and final inspection?
Plan review happens before construction starts: the city or county reviews your drawings against code, and the permit is issued once the set clears review. Final inspection happens after construction, when the building official visits the site to confirm the completed work matches what was approved. One reviews the documents, the other reviews the building.
How long does a project typically take?
Our production time, meaning the work actively under our team's responsibility, runs 30 to 68 business days and averages around 46, roughly nine weeks. That is active production time only. It does not include time spent waiting on your feedback, on third parties such as truss or engineering reports, or on city and county plan review, since none of that is under our control.
What are the stages, from the first meeting to a permit-ready set?
Four stages carry a project from the first meeting to a permit-ready set: coordinating existing conditions, developing the layout, producing construction documents, and carrying the set through plan review until the permit is issued. Each stage closes with your approval before the next one opens, and engineering and site plan work run in parallel with the drawing set.
