Yes, After you select your plan and enter your address there will be an option to "Add Topographical Lines".  Select the check box and we will add the topography. We use USGS available topography which is available on 2-5 foot intervals.

Yes, once you select your site plan and enter the site address you will see a dropdown menu that says "Add Non-Existing Feature (Structure):" You will select the number of features you would like to add to the site plan. In the description area you can describe the dimensions of the feature and where you would like it to be placed. Another option is to wait for the initial draft to be sent to you and then sketch the new feature into the draft, then send it back to us to be added.

We will work with you to make sure we get the placement just right.

Common features added are: Barn, Shed, Fence, Pergola, Covered Patio, Patio, New Home, Addition, Driveway

Yes, it is possible but those items would have to be added by the client since they would not be visible via satellite. If you know the location of these features and would like them added to your site plan you would order the Detailed Site Plan. Once we send you the draft of the site plan you would print the plan, mark  the location of the utilities and other features and send it back to us to have it added. We will then add those items to the final plan.

Yes, a vicinity map can be added to the site plan. Once you select your plan and enter your address you will be given the option to Add Vicinity Map. Select the checkbox. 

A vicinity map is a small map in the upper corner of the site plan that shows the subject property relative to the surrounding area.

For permitting on residential properties our Medium Detail Plan. This plan will include the items most cities want to see on a site plan such as scale, north arrow, driveway, structures, and trees.

For permitting of commercial properties our Detailed Site Plan is most appropriate. This plan includes all features visible via satellite such as landscaping, parking spaces, structures, driveways etc.

OurBasic Site Plan will include the property boundaries and primary structure along with north arrow and scale. This is our most basic plan and is commonly used for planning purposes but lacks details that most cities and counties require.

For conceptual custom work you will fill out our Custom Quote Form. Please include a full description of what you would like to have included in your site plan such as how many buildings, roads, landscape, etc. Also include property address and any additional requirements. We will review and get back to you with questions or a quote within 24 hours.

All of our site plans are formatted to be printed on 11"X17" paper. This is the default size of most cities. Home printers generally only print 8 1/2" X 11" which does not leave enough room on the site plan for city stamps and notes.

Occasionally municipalities will request other sizes which fall outside of our standard template. We can format the plan for any size paper but need to scale it appropriately.

You will have the option to rescale to your size at checkout. Just select "Yes" and give us the size you would like.

Default size 11 X 17 (Included). Do you require custom size? (Re-Scale Fee $10):

YesNo

Yes, we can. Since we do not do a site visit we are reliant on the customer to provide a sketch with all dimensions so that we can recreate those as scaled AutoCAD drawings. You can email those sketches to siteplan@mysiteplan.com and we will provide a quote for that service. 

For conditional use permits you would want our Detailed Site Plan. Our detailed plan will include items such as parking and ingress / egress that are required for a commercial site plan

No, We are a drafting company and do not stamp, sign or seal plans. We do include our company name and logo on the site plan. If you require a certified, stamped, signed or sealed plan you will need to hire and Architect, Engineer, or Surveyor.

We do not mail any plans but we recommend using www.fedexoffice.com for easy uploading, ordering and delivery. It can all be done online and is a simple and inexpensive option.

The other option is to send the PDF file to a local print shop such as Staples, Fedex Office, Mail Boxes etc. and many others.

All site plans are delivered in a PDF format which is the most universally accepted printing format. During checkout you will also have an option to order the DWG file which is the AutoCAD source file. If you select this option we will zip that file and send it to you as well.

ALL of our standard site plans are delivered within 24 hours to the email address provided at the time of your order. If you did not receive your plan please check your spam folder. If you do not find it still please email siteplan@mysiteplan.com with an alternative email address and your order number so that we can resend the plan.

We have a RUSH order option where we will create and deliver the plan within less than 12 hours. You can select that option during checkout. 

Once your order is received we will assign it to our most qualified drafter for your particular needs.  Your order will be reviewed fully to make sure that there are no questions and that we have everything we need to create a draft. 

We will create a draft site plan within the promised window for your review. Once you receive your plan please check it to make sure that it has everything you need and that all measurements are in line with yours. If there is anything that needs to be adjusted we recommend printing the site plan and marking all changes directly onto the plan. You can then scan or take a picture of it and send it back to us for the edits. You can also just reply directly to the designer who sent you the plan to ask for whatever you need.

We stick with you until the plan is just how you need it!

Once we send you the site plan we will wait for your feedback and take care of any changes you would like. This is assuming that your changes are within the original scope. If you require features from a higher detail plan such as upgrading from a Medium Plan to a Detailed Plan we can send you an invoice for the cost difference between the two plans.

We license a large data set that contains Nationwide Parcel Data for both residential and commercial properties. This data allows us to access information of lot dimensions, legal description, land use, lot square footage, building square footage, zoning, parcel number and much more. 

We have several different sources for satellite imagery and try to use the most up to date image. The imagery is generally 0-12 months old with most property images averaging around 3 months. If you are trying to capture new additions or subtractions from your property on a site plan and the work was done within the last 3 months it is likely we will not pick it up. That ok! If we miss something just let us know after we send you a draft and we will make the necessary adjustments.

All of our site plans are created using AutoCAD. AutoCAD is a commercial computer-aided design (CAD) and drafting software application.  This is a powerful software that allows our designers to create the plans in a scaled environment. If you have never used AutoCAD it's important to know that it is not an easy software to learn so making edits to the plan should only be done by a qualified drafter.

We do not do site visits. All of our site plans are created remotely. If you require a site visit you would want to call a local surveyor or architect.

If you require a stamped plan by a surveyor, architect or engineer our plans will NOT be accepted. We are a drafting company and do not stamp or sign plans. Please verify this before placing your order.

If your plan is denied on first attempt please forward us the comments as to why it was denied. We will make necessary adjustments so that you can resubmit. If your SITE PLAN is denied for a second time for any other reason besides requiring a stamp we can either make further adjustments as long as we are within scope or refund your money with a copy of the denial letter.
