SITE PLANS • PROPERTY DOCUMENTATION • CAD DRAFTING

Professional Site Plan Services

Clear, accurate site plans showing your property, existing conditions, proposed improvements, and the relationship between your building and the surrounding site. R7 Designs creates professional CAD site plans for residential and commercial projects.

Whether you need a site plan for permitting, a new home, an addition, a renovation, a property improvement, or project planning, we'll develop a drawing based on the information available and the requirements of your project.

What's Included in a Site Plan?
The information shown on a site plan depends on the property and the scope of the project. Depending on your needs, a site plan may include some or all of the following:

PROPERTY BOUNDARIES

Property lines and relevant boundary information based on the survey or other source information provided for the project.

BUILDING LOCATION

The location and footprint of existing and/or proposed buildings on the property.

SETBACKS & DIMENSIONS

Relevant dimensions, setbacks, offsets, and distances needed to communicate the relationship between the proposed work and the property.

DRIVEWAYS & PARKING

Driveways, parking areas, access points, and other site circulation features when applicable.

WALKS & SITE FEATURES

Sidewalks, patios, decks, pools, fences, retaining walls, and other relevant existing or proposed improvements.

UTILITIES & SITE INFORMATION

Relevant utility locations and other site information when provided and appropriate for the project scope.

EXISTING & PROPOSED CONDITIONS

Clear distinction between existing features and proposed improvements so the scope of work is easy to understand.

NOTES & DIMENSIONS

Additional annotations, dimensions, labels, and project-specific information needed to clearly communicate the site plan.

Every property is different.

Your site plan will be developed around your specific property and project. We'll use the information available to determine what should be shown and how much detail is appropriate.

What Do You Need to Get Started?
A site plan can be developed from different types of property information. If you already have a survey or plat, that's ideal, but we can review whatever information you have and let you know what's needed for your project.

SURVEY OR PLAT

A property survey, boundary survey, site survey, or plat showing the property and relevant measurements.

EXISTING SITE PLANS

Existing site plans, property drawings, or other documentation showing current conditions.

PROPERTY INFORMATION

Available dimensions, addresses, lot information, or other information that helps establish the project location.

BUILDING PLANS

Existing or proposed floor plans, building footprints, architectural drawings, or other information about the structure.

PHOTOS & MEASUREMENTS

Photos, field measurements, and information about existing site conditions.

SKETCHES & PROPOSED CHANGES

Hand-drawn sketches or descriptions showing additions, new structures, driveways, patios, pools, or other proposed improvements.

Don't Have a Survey Yet?

That's okay. Send us what you have and we'll review the project with you. If additional information or documentation is needed before we can complete the site plan, we'll let you know.

Who Uses Our Site Plans?
Site plans are used for a wide range of projects, from residential additions and new homes to commercial improvements and development projects.

Homeowners

Planning an addition, new home, garage, pool, patio, driveway, or other property improvement? A site plan helps show how the proposed work fits within your property.

Contractors & Builders

Use accurate site plans to understand project scope, coordinate proposed improvements, and support permitting and construction planning.

Architects & Designers

Outsource site-plan drafting and documentation when you need additional production capacity or support developing a project.

Developers & Property Professionals

Document existing properties and proposed improvements for planning, development, renovations, and other property projects.
