Local Residential Projects Requiring Site Visits
Some residential projects require on-site measurement and verification. To maintain accuracy and efficiency, travel is limited to the following:
- Additions to existing homes
– Typically within 60 km of Arnprior, Ontario
– Addition and deck permit drawings are prepared where site conditions require local review. - Deck projects
– Typically within 30 km of Arnprior
– Some deck projects may be completed remotely if accurate measurements are provided
How the Permit Drawing Process Works
- Client provides a sketch, sample plan, or reference material
These items are used as a starting point for development into Ontario Building Code–compliant, permit-ready construction drawings. - Preliminary drawings are prepared for review
- Client marks up changes and returns drawings
- Revisions are completed
- Final permit drawings are issued
Upon completion, clients receive a finalized PDF drawing set, Schedule 1 – Designer Information, and the Energy Efficiency Design Summary (EEDS), prepared for municipal building permit submission.
A Consistent, Proven Approach
All projects follow a standardized drawing format refined over nearly two decades of residential construction work. This consistency reduces review time, minimizes questions from inspectors, and helps projects move forward without unnecessary revisions.
Drawings prioritize clarity, constructability, and Ontario Building Code compliance — not design experimentation.
