MySitePlan.com: A Quickstart Guide to Your Custom Site Plan
What is a Site Plan?
A site plan is a top view, birds eye view of a property that is drawn to scale. A site plan shows a building footprint, travel-ways, parking, drainage facilities, sanitary sewer lines, water lines, trails, lighting, landscaping and garden elements. MySitePlan.com is proud to offer other concept services as well.

What is "Custom Hourly"
Simply Fill in the Custom Quote Form and Submit it. Our drafting team will review your needs and email you with the number of " Custom Hours" needed to complete your siteplan.
Once you have received an email with the number of hours needed, you will head over to the pricing page and click on "Custom Hourly".
For every hour needed, you will simply push the "+" sign to add the cost for each additional hour.
Once the hours have been added to the cart, submit payment and your project will proceed. Keep in mind that the timeline for our custom hourly work varies and does not fall under our 24 hour turn around guarantee.
Order Form Cheat Sheet
1. Required Information
In order to process your site plan, we will need at least the address for the property. Don't have an address? Thats ok! We can go off of the parcel number of your property.
2. What is "Add a Non-Existing Structure"
Many projects include the addition of a feature or structure to the existing property. This can be anything from a fence to a shed or deck to a new septic tank. If your plan will need to have any feature drawn in by our drafters, you will need to choose the appropriate number of features and add it to your order.
3. What are "Topographical lines"?
These are contour lines that will show elevations on your property. We use USGS available topography which is available in 2-5 foot intervals. To learn more about topography, please check out our blog article here What is Topography.
