Our Services

We offer a full suite of services tailored to residential, commercial, and industrial projects. Whether you're building a new home, renovating a storefront, or adding an extension, we've got you covered.

1. Permit Drawings and Plans

Our licensed engineers and architects prepare detailed, code-compliant drawings required for permit submissions. This includes:

• Architectural plans (floor plans, elevations, sections).

• Structural engineering drawings (foundations, framing, load calculations).

• Site plans, grading, and utility layouts.

• Specialized drawings for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and fire safety systems.

We use industry-standard software like AutoCAD and Revit to ensure accuracy and quick revisions. If your project involves custom designs or complex elements (e.g., seismic or wind resistance in high-risk areas), we provide stamped/sealed plans by professional engineers (PE).

2. Permit Pulling and Submission

We handle the entire application process:

• Researching zoning and code compliance.

• Preparing and submitting applications online (via systems like Accela) or in-person.

• Coordinating with multiple departments (building, planning, fire, health).

• Addressing reviewer comments and making necessary revisions.

For special permits (e.g., tree removal, signage, special events, or variances), we guide you through additional requirements.

3. Permit Expediting with Site Visits

Speed is our specialty! Our expediters accelerate approvals by:

• Prioritizing submissions and following up proactively.

• Conducting direct site visits to permit offices for hand-delivery and in-person discussions.

• Representing you at hearings or inspections.

• Managing timelines to avoid delays, often reducing processing from weeks to days.

This is ideal for time-sensitive projects like commercial rollouts or urgent renovations.
