you send what you have
Phone photos of each wall. A sketch with numbers on it. A tape reading for every room, taken twice, both diagonals included. Handwriting is fine; we have read worse.

seven numbers that save a round of questions

- 02Ceiling height in each room, measured at two corners.
- 03Window width, height, and sill height above the floor.
- 04Both diagonals of every room that isn’t obviously square.
- 05Direction the floor joists run, if you can see them.
- 06Location of the electrical panel and the water heater.

02 — Sample sheets
three sheets, one inspector’s question each
Illustrative sheets drawn to show the format. Dimensions are typical, not from any client’s house.
“which wall is coming out?”
the kitchen that lost a wall
Demo drawn with a dashed accent line so the plan reviewer sees exactly one wall at stake, and the contractor sees exactly one wall to price.
- Includes
- Existing plan, demo plan, proposed plan
- Turnaround
- 3 business days from complete numbers
- Price
- $760 renovation plan set
“how far off the ground is it?”
the deck at 31½ inches
Thirty inches is where a guard becomes mandatory, so the sheet states the height in inches, calls out the guard, and shows footing depth below frost. Reviewers stop asking.
- Includes
- Framing plan, footing plan, ledger and stair details
- Turnaround
- 3 business days from complete numbers
- Price
- $485 deck permit packet
“can anyone get out of it?”
the basement at 7′-1″
Seven feet is the line for habitable space, and the sheet shows a ceiling number you measured, not one you hoped for. The egress window carries its clear-opening note.
- Includes
- Plan, egress detail, stair, code notes, 24 × 36 PDF
- Turnaround
- 5 business days from complete numbers
- Price
- $1,160 permit-ready CAD set

Questions people ask before they write
We draw to the sheet and code-note format residential reviewers expect. We don’t stamp. If your project needs a licensed seal, the first reply says so, before any money moves.
We check every room’s diagonals. If two disagree by more than ½″, we flag the room and ask for a re-measure. Better us than the inspector.
Yes. Roughly half the projects start with a homeowner holding a tape measure. The checklist above is written for them.
