Crowhurst Design
I specialize in providing personalized service for Residential Building Permit Drawings and drafting services for small projects such as additions, renovations, and repairs as well as floor and site plans for building "Change of Use" applications. I provide services in Toronto, the GTA, Pickering, Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Courtice, Bowmanville, Brooklin, Richmond Hill, and surrounding areas.
With 25 years experience in both commercial and residential construction, I can also assist you with your design. As a Designer, I am fully qualified as required by the Ontario Building Code. My Building Code Identification Number is 36172. I can also arrange a Structural Engineer for your project if they are required.
Planning Your Project
The first step with your project should be contacting your local building department. Most municipalities have kits and checklists for applying for a building permit. You will get information about permit fees, size and number of drawings required. This is the best source of free information about all areas of construction. It is also a good idea to contact your planning and engineering departments. Arrange for your drawings to be done about 12 weeks prior to the date you want to start construction.
If you have the following available at our first meeting, it will save time and will be reflected in a lower cost for drawings.
Dimensions of all rooms, dimensions and types of all windows, dimensions and types of all doors, existing insulation in exterior walls, existing attic insulation., a current survey, sketches of proposed addition, sketches of your design ideas, furnace type, furnace intake and outlet sizes. Feel free to download the printable checklist.
I provide quality drawings at a reasonable price.
That’s my guarantee.
