What Is This Service?

MEP Plans, explained clearly

MEP stands for mechanical, electrical and plumbing. MEP plans describe building service layouts, equipment, distribution and code-related information at the level required for the contracted project and applicable review.

Who Is This Service For?

  • Homeowners adding bathrooms, kitchens or living areas
  • Builders working on new houses or ADUs
  • Commercial tenants relocating equipment or updating a space

Common Project Challenges

Common Problems We Help Solve

01

The city requests electrical or plumbing drawings missing from the permit set.

02

Fixtures or equipment move but the service layouts were not updated.

03

The floor plan and MEP drawings show conflicting room or equipment locations.

Included Scope

What Can Be Included?

The exact scope is tailored to your project and confirmed in your written quotation. Depending on the requirements, the work may include:

  • Electrical lighting, outlets, switches and equipment locations
  • Panel/service, circuit or load information where required
  • Plumbing fixtures, supply/waste/vent layouts and relevant risers
  • HVAC equipment, ductwork, exhaust and ventilation layouts
  • Relevant schedules, symbols and notes for the agreed package
  • Coordination with architectural floor plans and structural constraints

Permit Review Context

What matters when scoping MEP Plans

MEP plans coordinate mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems with the architectural layout. The required sheets depend on occupancy, project scope, local permit rules and whether separate trade permits or engineered designs are required.

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 MEP Plans

Are electrical, plumbing and HVAC always included together?

No. You can request the disciplines your project needs; the quote defines each included system.

Do MEP drawings include Manual J and energy calculations?

Only when specifically scoped. Energy compliance and load calculations may require additional data and qualified specialists.

Can you use a preliminary floor plan?

Yes for initial coordination, but major later layout changes can affect MEP scope and fees.

Do commercial MEP drawings need a PE seal?

Requirements depend on the jurisdiction, occupancy and project; licensed review is coordinated where required and available.

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.
