Frequently Asked Questions About Contractor Permit Drawings
Every permit is different; use these answers to prepare your scope review and verify project-specific requirements with your permit office.
Can contractors request multiple drawings for different properties?
Yes. Each property still needs its own address, scope, source documents and reviewer checklist. For repeat work, clearly identify which design details are standard and which conditions change by site.
Do you provide editable DWG files to contractors?
DWG or other editable files can be included when specified in the proposal. The standard deliverable should be confirmed together with sheet size, version control and any required stamp or title block.
How should we send permit correction comments?
Mark the affected sheets or forward the municipality's written comments. Include the most recent plan set so revisions are made against the correct version and do not overwrite unrelated changes.
What are the starting prices?
The eligible Contractor Permit Drawings package starts at $99. Larger scopes and additional disciplines are individually quoted.
What information should I provide to start?
Send the project address and reviewing jurisdiction, work description, approximate dimensions, existing survey or drawings if available, photos or sketches, and any plan review comments.
Can the drawings be used in my city or state?
We accept remote drafting requests nationwide. The drawing scope must match the specific local requirements. State licensing rules apply whenever regulated surveying, architectural or engineering services are needed.
Is a professional stamp included?
No stamp or seal is automatic. Where required, a properly licensed professional must perform an independent review and accept responsibility before signing or sealing, under a separately agreed scope.
What happens if the permit reviewer requests changes?
Reasonable drawing corrections within the original agreed scope are supported according to the proposal. New design work, surveys and additional engineering are separately assessed.
