ADDITION & DECK PERMIT DRAWINGS

Arnprior & Surrounding Area

Residential addition and deck permit drawings prepared to Ontario Building Code requirements

Leckie Drafting Services Inc. provides residential permit drawings for additions and decks in the Arnprior area and surrounding region.

Unlike new construction projects, additions and decks often require on-site measurement and verification. For this reason, these services are offered on a limited geographic basis.

SERVICE AREA

  • Home additions
    – Typically within 60 km of Arnprior, Ontario
  • New decks
    – Typically within 30 km of Arnprior

In some cases, deck drawings may be completed remotely if accurate measurements or existing drawings are provided.

Limiting travel allows projects to be completed efficiently and at a reasonable cost.

PROJECTS WE SUPPORT

This service includes permit drawings for:

  • Additions to existing homes
  • Decks and exterior platforms
  • Small structural alterations related to additions

All drawings are prepared by a BCIN-certified designer and intended for projects regulated under Part 9 of the Ontario Building Code.


WHY LOCATION MATTERS FOR THESE PROJECTS

Additions and decks differ from new construction because they often require:

  • Verification of existing conditions
  • On-site measurements
  • Integration with existing structures

To maintain accuracy and efficiency, site visits are typically required. For this reason, travel is limited to the areas outlined above.

HOW THE PROCESS WORKS

  1. Initial discussion to confirm location and scope
  2. On-site measurement (when required)
  3. Preliminary drawings are prepared
  4. Client marks up changes
  5. Revisions are completed
  6. Final permit drawings are issued

Upon completion, clients receive:

  • A PDF set of finalized permit drawings
  • Schedule 1 – Designer Information
  • Energy Efficiency Design Summary (EEDS)(when applicable)

For a detailed breakdown, see the full permit drawing process.

ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS

Engineering requirements vary depending on the project:

  • Some additions or deck designs may require engineering
  • Requirements depend on size, configuration, and existing structure
  • When engineering is required, coordination or referral to a qualified professional can be provided

WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED

This service does not include:

  • Site plans
  • Septic design
  • HVAC design
  • Plumbing or electrical layouts
  • Construction or project management

These services are typically completed by other qualified consultants or trades, each responsible for their own regulated scope of work.
