Architectural Drafting Services

Architectural drafting is the production of 2D construction documents that describe a building for permit, tender, and construction. It includes floor plans, sections, elevations, details, and schedules drafted from sketches, PDFs, or models to defined CAD standards, layer conventions, line weights, and title-block formats.

Architects and builders need drawing sets that read cleanly and follow a consistent standard across every sheet. Our architectural drafting service turns your hand sketches, marked-up PDFs, survey information, or 3D models into coordinated 2D construction documents. We draft floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, building and wall sections, elevations, enlarged details, and door, window, and finish schedules, all built on your layer conventions, line weights, annotation styles, and title blocks so the set looks like your own team produced it.

With 400+ delivered BIM/VDC projects for clients across the US, UK, and Europe, we draft to your CAD standards and templates and work in imperial units by default with metric supported. Whether you need a full construction set drafted from concept sketches or CAD cleanup and updates on an existing project, we keep sheets cross-referenced and coordinated as the design develops. We handle permit, tender, and construction issues, manage revisions with clear clouding, and sign an NDA on request before you share files.

Why Outsource Architectural Drafting to Powerkh

Your standards, applied consistently

We draft to your layer conventions, line weights, annotation styles, and title blocks, so every sheet matches your office standard.

Any input, clean output

We work from hand sketches, marked-up PDFs, survey data, or 3D models and return coordinated, cross-referenced 2D construction documents.

Coordinated drawing sets

Plans, sections, elevations, details, and schedules stay cross-referenced and consistent as the design develops through each issue.

Flexible, predictable engagement

Hourly pricing with a free quote and payment only after delivery, plus an English-speaking team reachable 8:00-18:00 UTC+2 on weekdays.

Our Architectural Drafting Services

Floor and ceiling plans

Dimensioned floor plans and reflected ceiling plans with walls, doors, windows, fixtures, and annotation drafted to your CAD standards.

Sections and elevations

Building and wall sections and exterior and interior elevations that describe heights, assemblies, and materials clearly for construction.

Construction details

Enlarged detail drawings for wall assemblies, roof edges, connections, and typical conditions, referenced back to the plans and sections.

Schedules and legends

Door, window, room, and finish schedules plus symbol legends and general notes, kept coordinated with the drawings and tags.

CAD conversion and cleanup

Redrawing of PDFs, scans, or legacy files into clean, layered CAD, and standardization of existing drawings to your template.

Permit and tender sets

Complete drawing sets prepared for permit submission, tender, or construction issue, with sheet setup, title blocks, and cross-references.

Our Architectural Drafting Process

  1. Share inputs and CAD standards

    Send your sketches, PDFs, survey data, or models along with your CAD standards, layer conventions, and title blocks. We return a free quote.

  2. Set up sheets and templates

    We configure the drawing set, title blocks, layers, and annotation styles to your standard before drafting any sheets.

  3. Draft the documents

    We draft plans, sections, elevations, details, and schedules, keeping references, tags, and dimensions coordinated across the set.

  4. Review and coordinate

    Sheets are checked for consistency, cross-references, and compliance with your standards, and coordinated against any related disciplines.

  5. Approval, revisions, and delivery

    We issue the set for review, incorporate markups and revisions with clear clouding, and deliver final CAD files and PDFs.

Software We Use

We draft in the CAD tools your practice already uses, matching your templates and standards exactly.

  • Revit
  • SketchUp

FAQ

What is included in your architectural drafting services?

Coordinated 2D construction documents including floor and reflected ceiling plans, building and wall sections, elevations, enlarged details, and door, window, and finish schedules - all drafted to your CAD standards, layer conventions, line weights, and title blocks and issued as CAD files and PDFs.

What inputs can you draft from?

We draft from hand sketches, marked-up PDFs, scanned drawings, survey information, or 3D models. If you supply an existing CAD file or a set to update, we can extend or standardize it. We confirm the scope and best starting point before quoting.

Will the drawings follow our office CAD standards?

Yes. We set up layers, line weights, annotation styles, and title blocks to match your standard before drafting, so every sheet reads like your own team produced it. Share your template and any sample sheets and we will replicate the conventions.

Do you prepare permit and tender drawing sets?

We prepare complete sets for permit submission, tender, or construction issue, with sheet setup, cross-references, and coordinated schedules. We work in imperial by default and support metric, and we manage revisions with clear clouding through each issue.

How do you price architectural drafting projects?

We charge hourly and provide a free quote after reviewing your inputs, sheet count, and CAD standards, and payment is due only after the work is delivered. An NDA is available on request before you share any project files.
