Step 1
Describe the project
The address or city, what you are building or changing, and roughly how big it is. A sentence is enough to start.
How it works
From description to permit drawings
Four steps, and you only have to do the first one.
Steps
The process
Step 2
Scope and documents
You get back what the work actually requires: which drawings, whether anything needs sealing, and what the reviewing office will ask for.
Step 3
A price for your job
Not a range. The number follows the scope, the size and the number of review rounds expected.
Step 4
Drawings and submission
The drawing set is prepared for submission. Where the reviewing office requires a sealed set, it is signed and sealed by the professional responsible for it.
Preparation
What to have ready
- The project address, and the county it is in
- What you are building, adding or changing
- Rough dimensions, or the survey or plot plan if you have one
- Any drawings, sketches or inspiration you already have
- Whether the property is residential or commercial
- Whether a permit has already been applied for
Questions
Common questions
Are the drawings sealed?
Where a sealed set is required, the work is prepared and sealed by a Florida architect who signs them, and that signature is what the reviewing office relies on.
How do I check a Florida architect's registration?
Professional registration is a matter of public record in Florida. Check it directly with the state before you engage anyone.
