Drafting

One of the largest problems many home owners have with their house ideas is the fact that they may not be able to visualize the finished product from “flat paper drafts.”

At Danville Drafting Services, we offer a drafting creating three-dimensional renderings allowing homeowners to better visualize the exterior or interior in full 3D and in color.

This allows homeowners to visualize the home or project from any angle, and with any finish, color selection, shingle type, siding, stucco, stone, trim type, etc. 

You can get three-dimensional views with the roof removed to give you an overall view of the proposed home or renovation room layout from a “fly-over” view. 

Detailed sun shadows showing what a house looks like at different times of the year or what it will look like at night with the lights turned on.

All drafting is pre-architectural at an hourly rate with typical single floor drafts of about 40 hours to two story drafts of about 55 hours depending on the level of detail and changes.

Floor plan layout done to scale allowing for a full visualization of interiors and exteriors and including wall thickness, trim, high ceilings, etc, that are often missed with sketches or initial ideas.  The actual drafted plans bring ideas to a level of reality that the homeowner can use to make their best decisions.

 

Important!
Although our drafting can be built “as is” in most places, your local building department may have specific requirements. Some of these requirements, including structural engineering, soils reports and energy efficiency calculations may require significant additional investments.

The typical drafting set does not include any plumbing, heating or air conditioning drawings due to the wide variety of local codes and climatic conditions. These details and specifications are easily obtained from your builder, contractor, and/or local suppliers.

Three-dimensional elevations with basic exterior detailing such as trim, masonry, siding, etc provide invaluable views of the finished product that can be altered to limited degree during the drafting revisioning process.
