Selecting an architectural drafting company

You must find a drafting company that is a good fit for your project. Look for a drafting company that has a portfolio of projects which are similar to yours. Architectural drafting is about much more than just drawing a building. They must understand the elements of your design that will make it unique, and the company must also grasp how the building will fit into the local area. The skills of the architectural drafting company will ensure that the building is not only entirely fit for purpose but also a good fit for its intended location. Here are three things that you must assess before selecting an architectural drafting company.

Do they share your vision? Any architectural drafting company you pick must thoroughly understand your project and know how to take it forward. A proven track record in similar work will help them grasp your intentions, but they should demonstrate that they understand what makes your project unique.

Do they keep in touch? Ask any prospective architectural drafting company about their communication channels. There is little worse than being uninformed when trying to plan a building project. Find out how fast the company can carry out the work and how effectively they can communicate their progress to you. Is there a dedicated spokesperson for the company who will be the regular point of contact, or must you rely on contacting the reception desk to pass your call to anyone available?

Do they have a transparent fee schedule? No one likes unexpected bills. A higher than expected bill could throw your entire building project off track and lead to difficulties with stakeholders at an early stage in the project. Look for a company that is clear about charges for their services and when payment is needed for every stage of the work.
