FAQ
What information do you need from me to start the project?
Please provide rough dimensions or a hand sketch of your planned deck/patio, photos of the current area, and any specific local building department guidelines or property surveys you have available.
Do your drawings include a Professional Engineer (PE) stamp or seal?
No, my standard packages provide structural framing and construction permit drawings. If your local building department strictly requires a certified PE stamp or wet signature, please contact me before ordering to discuss options.
What happens if the city building department requests modifications or corrections?
I will update the structural plans to address the city’s feedback. I offer revisions specifically for plan review corrections to help you move through the permit approval process successfully.
What software do you use to create the drawings, and what file formats will I receive?
I draft all plans using industry-standard CAD software. You will receive a high-resolution, print-ready PDF package for city submission, and source files are available as an add-on.
Do you provide full architectural site plans or just structural framing?
This gig specializes in structural layouts, framing schedules, beam/joist sizing, and connection details. If your city demands a comprehensive site zoning layout, please let me know so we can include it in the scope.
