FULL PERMIT DRAWING SETS
Full Permit Drawing Sets for California Projects
A full permit drawing set brings the drawings needed for a building-permit submission into one coordinated package. Depending on the project, that may include the site plan, architectural drawings, structural sheets, and mechanical, electrical, or plumbing plans.
SitePlan California provides complete permit drawing coordination for residential and commercial projects across California. We define the required sheets around the project scope and local review requirements, then coordinate licensed architectural or engineering work when a regulated professional is required.

Service Overview
One Coordinated Package for the Permit Submission
A full permit set is more than a site plan. It is the coordinated group of drawings used to explain the project to the reviewing authority and the construction team.
The exact sheet list varies by project. A simple residential remodel may need fewer drawings than a new home, ADU, commercial tenant improvement, or structural addition. We begin by defining what the jurisdiction is asking for, what information already exists, and which licensed disciplines are needed.
Where architectural, structural, civil, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, surveying, or other regulated professional work is required, that work is coordinated with the appropriate qualified professional rather than represented as general drafting.

Common Project Types
Permit Drawings Organized by Project Scope
Not every project needs every sheet. The package is built around the actual permit scope, project type, and jurisdiction requirements.
How It Works
From Project Information to a Coordinated Permit Submission
Send the information you have, confirm the scope, review the draft, and receive the completed digital drawing package.
STEP 01
Send Project Information
Share the property address, project description, existing plans, survey, sketches, photos, or permit comments you already have.
STEP 02
Scope Review
We review the information and confirm the likely drawing scope, expected deliverables, and any professional coordination needed.
STEP 03
Drafting & Coordination
The full permit drawing sets package is prepared around the existing conditions, proposed work, and agreed project scope.
STEP 04
Digital Delivery
Receive the completed files digitally, with applicable revision support based on the confirmed project scope.
Start With What You Have
A Coordinated Permit Drawing Package From One Clear Scope
A full permit set works best when every contributor is working from the same project scope. Homeowners need a clear path from idea to permit submission. Contractors need drawings that match the work they are pricing and building. Developers and commercial teams need architectural, structural, site, and MEP information coordinated before plan review.
We organize the permit package around the property, proposed construction, existing documentation, and jurisdiction comments. We can work from surveys, existing plans, field measurements, sketches, CAD files, PDFs, consultant markups, project specifications, photos, and plan-check corrections. When a licensed architect, engineer, surveyor, or other regulated professional is required, their approved information remains the technical basis for that portion of the permit set.

What We Prepare
The Exact Sheet List Depends on the Project

Coordinated Permit Package
The Permit Set Is Built Around the Actual Project
A complete permit set should not be a pile of unrelated drawings. The site plan, architectural sheets, structural information, and MEP drawings need to describe the same project using consistent dimensions and scope.
We begin with the property, proposed work, existing documentation, and permit objective. From there, we identify the drawing disciplines that belong in the package and separate any work that requires licensed professional responsibility.
Site, Architectural, Engineering & MEP Drawings Working Together
The strongest permit sets are coordinated across disciplines. A floor-plan change can affect structural framing. A new bathroom can affect plumbing and ventilation. An addition changes the site plan, elevations, roof, sections, and sometimes utility or structural information.
Deliverables & Professional Scope
What You Can Expect From a Full Permit Set
Deliverables may include cover sheets, site plans, existing and proposed floor plans, roof plans, exterior elevations, building sections, schedules, construction details, structural sheets, civil information, electrical plans, plumbing plans, mechanical plans, calculations, and supporting permit documents depending on the agreed scope.
Some projects require drawings or calculations prepared, reviewed, signed, or sealed by a licensed architect, engineer, land surveyor, or other regulated professional. Those requirements are identified during scope review and coordinated appropriately. Permit approval remains the decision of the reviewing authority.

Common Questions About Full Permit Drawing Sets
Common questions about scope, source information, professional coordination, revisions, and delivery.
What is included in a full permit drawing set?
A full permit drawing set is the coordinated group of drawings needed to explain a construction project for permit review. The exact sheets depend on the project and jurisdiction.
Does every project need the same drawings?
No. The required sheet list changes by project type. We define the package around the work being proposed and the reviewing authority requirements.
Can you work from my existing plans or survey?
Yes. Existing plans, surveys, CAD files, PDFs, sketches, photos, and contractor markups can be used as source information when suitable.
Do you prepare both residential and commercial permit sets?
Yes. We can coordinate residential and commercial permit drawing sets, with the exact disciplines based on the project scope.
Can you help with plan-check corrections?
Yes. Send the current plan set and complete written correction comments so we can identify which drawings need revision and which professional disciplines are involved.
Can structural, civil, and MEP drawings be included?
Yes. Structural, civil, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical drawings can be coordinated when they are part of the agreed permit scope.
Do I need a survey before you can start?
Not always. If exact legal boundary or topographic information is required, it should come from an appropriately licensed survey professional.
Can you coordinate licensed architect or engineer review?
Licensed architect or engineer review can be coordinated when required. The responsible professional determines which drawings or calculations they can accept and seal.
What file formats will I receive?
PDF is standard. CAD/DWG source files can also be included when specified in the project agreement.
Do you provide full permit drawing sets throughout California?
Yes. We support applicable full permit drawing projects throughout California, subject to project scope, available source information, professional requirements, and local jurisdiction rules.
