Architectural drawings
Detailed technical drawings showing the existing building and the proposed work.
How we can help
After the site survey, our in-house team prepares the existing and proposed drawings needed for planning applications and building regulations.
Site location and Ordnance Survey maps
Existing and proposed floor plans
Front, rear and side elevations
Section drawings
Optional CGI 3D visualisations
Prepared in-house from an accurate survey
Every drawing set starts with precise measurements and photographs taken at the site survey, handed directly to our drafting team. Because nothing is passed to outside subcontractors, your drawings are accurate from day one and are turned around quickly.
The complete drawing set
A typical set includes the site location plan and Ordnance Survey maps, existing and proposed floor plans, front, rear and side elevations, and section drawings. Where it helps a council or a client understand the finished result, we can also prepare optional CGI 3D visualisations.
Policy-focused and clear
Our drawings are prepared with planning policy in mind, not just measurements. Plans and elevations are drawn clearly so planning officers can assess the proposal quickly, and each set is reviewed by a planning consultant before it goes into an application.
Revisions in minutes, not weeks
Because drafting sits next door to the planning consultants, when a council planning officer requests a tweak we can often update and resubmit drawings within minutes. That speed keeps your build on track and your application moving.
