Every project moves through some or all of the 24 services below, grouped by stage. Tell us what you already have and what you still need, we will scope the rest.
We prepare and seal each discipline in house, so the sheets agree with each other before they reach the plan checker.
Calculations, framing, foundations, lateral design
Floor plans, elevations, life safety
HVAC loads, panel schedules, riser diagrams
Grading, drainage, stormwater, utilities
Planting, irrigation, hardscape
PV arrays, storage, energy compliance
Submission, plan check, comment response
The building type decides which code your project is reviewed under, and how much documentation the jurisdiction expects.
Single-family homes, ADUs, additions, garage conversions, decks and remodels. Usually reviewed under the residential code, with a shorter plan check.
Offices, retail, restaurants, clinics and tenant improvements. Reviewed under the building code, with occupancy, egress and accessibility all in scope.
Warehouses, workshops, mezzanines, storage and light manufacturing. Heavier loads, equipment anchorage and often a longer review.
Sketches, a survey, an old permit set, or nothing at all. We review it and come back with the exact scope your jurisdiction will ask for.
Understand the site and requirements before design starts.
Civil, architectural, structural, and MEP design work.
Checked against the codes that apply to your jurisdiction.
Disciplines coordinated into one consistent document set.
Reviewed and sealed by the appropriate licensed professional.
Carried through review comments to final approval.
Starting fees for a typical residential scope: Structural Engineering from $1,699, Architectural plans (full set) from $2,200, MEP Engineering from $1,199, Civil and Site Engineering from $2,200, Landscape Design quoted per project, Solar and Energy Permits from $1,800, Permit Expediting from $599. Your final price depends on size, disciplines and jurisdiction, and we confirm it in writing before work begins.
See all pricing →A drafter or designer can draw a permit set, but most jurisdictions require engineering calculations and a seal from a licensed engineer for structural work. We can prepare the whole set, or review and seal drawings you already have.
Typical residential projects run 3 to 7 business days from the point we have everything we need. An ADU set typically takes 5 to 10 business days, a load-bearing wall removal letter 3 business days, and larger or multi-discipline commercial sets take longer. We confirm the delivery date in writing before you pay.
That is fine and often cheaper. Many permits only need structural, or only MEP. We tell you what your jurisdiction actually requires rather than selling you a full set by default.
Each project is matched to a professional licensed in your project's state and in the discipline the work needs. The engineer's name and license number are shared on request before you approve the quote, and you can check any license on the state licensing board's public lookup.
About our engineers →Yes. Permit expediting is available as its own service, starting at $599, or bundled with a drawing package. We handle submission, track the plan check and correspond with the building department.
Permit expediting →Fill out your project details and a licensed engineer will follow up by email.
