Residential Addition — Construction Drawings / CAD Drafting (from existing sketches) - New York
Posted 2026-05-05Residential Addition — Construction Drawings / CAD Drafting (from existing sketches)
We're building a ~500 sq ft addition onto our existing home in Sullivan County, NY, adding two bedrooms and a connecting hallway on a pier foundation. Everything is already designed and we have a set of basic SketchUp plans. We need someone to translate those into clean, professional construction drawings we can use for permitting and contractor bidding.
Scope of work:
Convert our existing drawings into proper construction documents (floor plan, elevations, sections, foundation/pier layout, framing notes)
Drawings should meet typical residential permit submission standards for New York State
We do NOT need full architectural or engineering services — just clean, accurate drafting from our provided plans
Must have familiarity with residential wood-frame construction (pier foundation, stick-frame walls, vaulted ceiling)
What we'll provide:
Our existing floor plan and elevations
Dimensions, material specs, and notes
Photos of the existing structure for context
Quick turnaround on any questions
What we're looking for:
Experienced residential CAD drafter
Portfolio showing residential construction drawings
Someone who can flag obvious issues or omissions
Familiarity with NY residential building codes preferred
BONUS: Licensed architect or PE who can provide stamped drawings if required for permitting
If you've done residential permit drawings before, this should be a pretty straightforward project. Happy to hop on a quick call to walk through what we have before you bid.
