NEW Home & Renovation Design Process
Initial Consultation
- Meet to discuss the feasibility and design aspects of your project in order to provide the best possible design ideas
- Provide an estimate or Contract for the project
- Perform site visit to take measurements and provide As Built Drawings
- Any existing drawings or surveys of your property can help to reduce some of the on-site measuring and as-built drawing time
As-built Drawings
- As-built floor plans and elevations are prepared based on the measurements taken on site. City bylaws determine how much of the existing house needs to be drawn.
Floor Plan Renovation Design
- Utilizing your ideas from the initial consultation, design a new floor plan.
- The floor plans show how your addition ties into the existing building on the property.
- The floor plans will be reviewed with you to discuss possible revisions and conceptual 3D ideas
Exterior Renovation Design
- The exterior will be designed to complement your floor plans, the existing style and the surrounding neighborhood. City bylaws determine how many exterior views are required based on the extent of the renovations.
- Once you have reviewed and accepted the plans, we will proceed to the construction drawings. All revisions and changes should be complete before this step.
Construction Drawings
The extent of construction drawings is determined now. We will provide the level of detail required to obtain your building permit.
Drawings typically include:
- site plan
- demolition plan
- floor plans
- roof plan
- building sections and construction details
- detailed elevations
Most municipalities require that the structural drawings are reviewed and sealed by a local engineer. We work with many local engineers and will recommend and then add their structural details and notes to our drawings.
