Drawings and permits, before anyone breaks ground
For Los Angeles homeowners who want the plans and the approvals handled properly before construction starts. The same team that draws it carries it through plan check and into the build, so nothing is lost in a handoff.
Recent Design, Planning & Permits projects in Los Angeles
A look inside some of our latest remodeling projects across Los Angeles.
What design, planning and permits covers
One contract, one schedule. Nothing on this list gets handed to someone you have to chase.
How we price your project
No two design and permit packages cost the same, and any contractor who quotes a number before seeing the property is guessing. These are the six things your project manager measures on the walkthrough.
So how do you get an actual number?
You book a walkthrough. Nobody quotes a design and permit package over the phone, and anyone who does is going to revise it later. Here is exactly what happens instead, and none of it commits you to anything.
01
We walk the property. Free, in person, no obligation.
02
You get a written estimate, itemized line by line, with nothing hidden in it. Yours to keep.
03
Any change is agreed in writing before the work happens, never after.
The three things people ask before they sign
These come up on almost every call. Straight answers to all three.
Will the price change once you start?
You get a written estimate, itemized line by line. Anything that comes up after that is priced and agreed in writing before the work happens, never after.
How long is this really going to take?
Nobody can give you a firm completion date before permits are issued, and anyone who does is guessing. You get a phase by phase schedule instead, and a call the week anything moves rather than a surprise at the end.
Will the work last?
Every drawing set is prepared and stamped to meet code, submitted under our license, CSLB #1076567, and the same team carries the project into construction.
Reviews from Los Angeles homeowners
Every one of these is a design and permit package, not a small job. Names, neighbourhoods and dates as they were left.
Book your free in-home estimate
Six questions, about thirty seconds. They go straight to a project manager who works on this kind of job.
Free, in person, and there is no obligation at the end of it.
You get a written, itemized estimate that is yours to keep.
A project manager comes out, not a salesperson.
Or just call and skip the form.
Questions we get asked a lot
Or just call. We answer all of these on the phone in about five minutes.
How much do design and permit services cost in Los Angeles?
It depends on the six things above. Your project manager gives you a written, itemized number after reviewing the property and the scope, not before.
How long does the permit process take in Los Angeles?
It depends on the permit path at your address, and the permitting part sits in a queue nobody controls. We tell you which reviewers your project has to clear and keep you updated as it moves.
Do I need drawings to get a permit?
For most work, yes. We prepare the set, coordinate the consultants and submit it under our license.
Can you take over a project someone else started?
Yes. We review what exists, tell you honestly what is usable and what has to be redrawn, and pick it up from there.
Do I have to build with you afterwards?
No. The drawings and the permit are yours. Most clients continue with us because the same team already knows the project.
