Design Process:
We come out to your home to measure your existing house and photograph all relevant interior and exterior parts. We document the location of all utility lines and any elements of the existing structural configuration that may be important for the design process. Any official documents regarding the lot and its boundaries would be very helpful.

We will prepare for you one set of as built plans from the measurements we took. We check with the city/county on any variances, setbacks and or hazards the property may have. This process takes one to two weeks.


We provide our clients with three different floor plan ideas. Whether it is an addition to a home or a remodel, all owners who share in the decision making responsibilities must be present in order to make changes and or modifications.

After a design is chosen it takes two weeks to complete the rest of drafting plans. These plans include:

Site plan
Existing floor plan
New floor plan
Existing roof plan
New roof plan
Existing elevations
New Elevations

*Note: These documents are what is required for a design plan/review. Please see design/plan review under submittles.

Title 24:
After a design/plan review or if none is needed we provide you with Title 24 documents (energy calculations) This is needed for every remodel and or addition. This process takes approximately one week but it can be completed during the same time that the structural engineer is doing his work.

Structural Engineering:
The Structural Engineer will provide you with the Structural Calculations, Roof Plans with details and Foundation Plans with Details. This phase takes three to four weeks.

Final:
When you are provided with your complete set of plans, the final payment will be due. Please refer to your invoice for this information. You will receive the following plans:

Site plan
Existing floor plan
New floor plan
Existing roof plan
New roof plan
Existing elevations
New elevations
Electrial
Door & Window schedule
Title 24
Structural Calculations
Structural pages for submittals


(Note: we do not pay for the permits,nor the application.)

Some cities if under certain square footage will provide an "over the counter plan check". For this stage we go with you to the city to help you save time and money on needing to resubmit. If they have any markups /redlines for example they may allow us to change the plans there. This way you should be able to leave with the plans that day

Big Projects For bigger projects, they need to be dropped off to the building division. These projects will take two to three weeks.
Redlines Any redlines from the city/county will take approximately 10 business days to correct and resubmit to the city.

Overall time From measurements to final stages your time is approximately 6 to 8 weeks. Please note that this varies on how fast you decide on your final floor plan/design and if you have a plan review.


We can do this in a timely and efficient manner.

Builder, Contractor, Exterior Designer, Architect, Structure, Construction, Architectural firms, engineering firms, scientific firms and inventors often hire drafting firms to do drafting work for them. Drafting firms now use CAD, AUTOCAD and other computer programs to do most of their work on computers. Some work is still done at most drafting firms on drafting tables using drafting tools. Some drafting firms specialize in either architectural drafting; geological drafting; landscape architectural drafting; or in creating formal trademark and patent drawings. Other drafting firms specialize in drafting for either mechanical engineering firms; environmental engineering firms; civil engineering firms; or structural engineering firms. Architects can provide a wide variety of services for clients building commercial sites, such as project administration and management, evaluation and planning, design, bidding and negotiating and contract administration services. Architects may manage an entire project, including the use of subcontractors, for the client. Architects may also serve as a member of a team supporting a project manager or other team members on a building project. When hiring architects for a project, people will often ask about the architects' background and experience. Some architects work for large firms; while others may work in a single person office. Some architects are members of the American Institute of Architects (AIA). emergency permit, Green design, LEED certified, The cities we provide Commercial Construction service to are: Sacramento, West Sacramento, Elk Grove, Galt, Lodi, Stockton, Tracy, Brentwood,Fairfax, Novato, Fairfax, mill valley, greenbrae, Alameda (pop. 75,254) • Antioch (pop. 100,150) • Berkeley (pop. 102,743) • Chico (pop. 84,396) • Citrus Heights (pop. 85,017) • Clovis (pop. 92,269) • Concord (pop. 121,780) • Cupertino (pop. 55,162) • Daly City (pop. 103,621) • Davis (pop. 64,938) • Elk Grove (pop. 139,609) • Eureka (pop. 26,128) • Fairfield (pop. 96,178) • Fresno (pop. 481,035) • Fremont (pop. 210,160) • Hanford (pop. 50,370) • Hayward (pop. 155,312) • Livermore (pop. 82,845) • Lodi (pop. 63,395) • Madera (pop. 55,780) • Manteca (pop. 65,076) • Merced (pop. 79,715) • Milpitas (pop. 66,568) • Monterey (pop. 30,641) • Modesto (pop. 207,010) • Mountain View (pop. 70,708) • Napa (pop. 72,585) • Novato (pop. 52,426) • Oakland (pop. 415,492) • Palo Alto (pop. 61,200) • Petaluma (pop. 56,996) • Pittsburg (pop. 56,769) • Pleasanton (pop. 71,882) • Porterville (pop. 51,467) • Rancho Cordova (pop. 59,056) • Red Bluff (pop. 13,147) • Redding (pop. 104,295) • Redwood City (pop. 79,000) • Richmond (pop. 103,828) • Rocklin (pop. 51,951) • Roseville (pop. 106,266) • Sacramento (pop. 467,343) • Salinas (pop. 148,350) • San Francisco (pop. 744,041) • San Jose (pop. 989,496) • San Leandro (pop. 81,466) • San Mateo (pop. 92,482) • San Rafael (pop. 56,063) • San Ramon (pop. 58,035) • Santa Clara (pop. 109,000) • Santa Cruz (pop. 54,593) • Santa Rosa (pop. 156,200) • South San Francisco (pop. 60,552) • South Lake Tahoe (pop. 23,609) • Stockton (pop. 325,899) • Sunnyvale (pop. 131,760) • Tracy (pop. 80,505) • Tulare (pop. 55,935) • Turlock (pop. 69,321) • Ukiah (pop. 15,497) • Union City • Vacaville • Vallejo • Visalia • Walnut Creek • Watsonville • Woodland • Yuba City Folsom, Rio Linda, Carmichael, Davis, Cameron Park, Fair Oaks, Rancho Cordova, Orangevale, North Highlands, Del Paso Heights, Roseville, Rocklin, Granite Bay, Loomis, Lincoln, Grass Valley, Napa Valley, Calistoga, Santa Rosa, Healdsburg, Menlo Park, Concord, West Sacramento, San Francisco, Dixon, Capitola, Morgan Hill, Paso Robles, Healdsburg, Tracy, Stockton, Galt, Lodi, San Jose, santa Rosa, Santa Cruz, Aptos, Big sur, Walnut Creek, Pleasanton, Auburn, Folsom, Shingle Springs, El Dorado Hills, Serrano, Cameron Park, Pilot Hill, Cool, San Francisco, Cupertino
