  • Builders who need consistent floor and elevation drawings
  • Commercial owners modifying interior space

Permit Review Context

What matters when scoping Architectural Plans

Architectural plans communicate the arrangement, dimensions and visible construction of the project. The sheet set can range from a small addition package to coordinated plans, elevations, sections, schedules and details for a new building or commercial alteration.

We use these topics to frame the drawing scope, but the final submittal requirements are set by the city, county or other reviewing authority for the project address.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About Architectural Plans

Can you work from a hand sketch?

Yes, with sufficient dimensions, photographs and clarification of missing information.

Does an architectural plan include structural design?

Not automatically. Structural plans and calculations are defined separately.

Will you prepare elevations?

Yes, when included in the agreed package and the required height and exterior information is available.

Do I need an architect’s seal?

Requirements vary by occupancy, jurisdiction and project. Any required licensed design service must be independently reviewed and accepted by the appropriate professional.

How do I know exactly which drawings my permit office requires?

Send the property address and a short description of the proposed work. We use the jurisdiction and project type to define the likely drawing scope before drafting begins. Final submittal requirements remain subject to the reviewing authority.

Can I send an existing survey, sketch, photos or permit comments?

Yes. Existing surveys, recorded plats, sketches, photos, prior plans and correction comments can all help establish the drawing scope and reduce avoidable assumptions.

Do you work with projects nationwide?

Yes. Make A Site Plan supports projects across the United States. Because permit procedures vary by city and county, we check the project location before finalizing the scope.

Can you guarantee that the permit will be approved without comments?

No. Approval is controlled by the reviewing jurisdiction. Our process is designed to make the drawings clear, coordinated and responsive to the known submittal requirements, and we support in-scope permit comments when they occur.
