Architectural
Drafting
Precise CAD drawings from your sketches, PDFs and existing plans.
We turn hand-drawn sketches, rough layouts and marked-up plans into carefully organized CAD drawings. We also redraw PDF plans in CAD, paying close attention to dimensions, scale, linework and annotations.
For renovations, additions and permit submissions, we prepare the drawings agreed for your project. Unclear dimensions or missing information are identified for confirmation rather than filled in by guesswork.

From your source material to clear CAD drawings
What drafting covers
Architectural drafting brings sketches, measurements and existing project information into an organized set of drawings. The work can include existing and proposed floor plans, facade elevations and other sheets agreed for a renovation, addition or permit submission.
Starting from sketches
Hand-drawn sketches and rough layouts provide a starting point for CAD drafting. We review the dimensions, notes and references available, then develop the drawing set around the agreed scope. Missing dimensions and unclear details are identified for confirmation rather than filled in by guesswork.
PDF to CAD
For PDF-to-CAD work, we redraw the source as editable CAD geometry with careful attention to scale, dimensions, linework and annotations. The accuracy of the result depends on the information in the source and the reference measurements available. Unclear or inconsistent information is flagged for review.
Preparing for submission
For permit submissions, we agree on the required drawings using the project scope and the submission requirements you provide. Send any existing plans, markups and reviewing-authority comments with your brief so the drawing requirements can be considered from the start.

Drawing scope
Drafting Services Include
CAD drafting from sketches
We develop CAD drawings from hand sketches, rough layouts and annotated reference plans, organizing the geometry, dimensions and notes into a clear drawing set.
PDF to CAD conversion
We redraw PDF plans as editable CAD drawings with careful attention to the source. Available dimensions and reference measurements guide the work; unclear or inconsistent information is flagged for review.
Floor plans
Existing and proposed floor plans for renovation and addition projects, with dimensions and layout information developed from the agreed brief.
Elevations
Facade elevations that communicate openings, exterior arrangements and proposed changes, coordinated with the available plans.
Existing-condition drawings
CAD drawings developed from measurements, existing plans and available project information, providing a documented starting point for proposed work.
Permit drawing support
We prepare drawings for permit submission, including floor plans, elevations and other agreed sheets as applicable to the project. The required drawing set is confirmed against the submission requirements you provide.
