"I located Gary on Home Advisor and was impressed with all of the positive reviews. We scheduled a personal meeting. I found him to be attentive, thoughtful and patient in reviewing my needs on a kitchen remodel. I felt no need to interview other architects. This project has been completed, and I am so thrilled with the end result."

"Working with Sigura Construction was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. As a real estate company, we often need fast, reliable, and high-quality work to prepare homes for sale and Sigura Construction exceeded every expectation. Their team was professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient. Every repair and improvement we requested was completed within hours, with excellent attention to detail and craftsmanship. The quality of the work was outstanding from the finishing touches to the overall presentation, everything looked perfect. What truly stood out was their amazing customer service. Communication was seamless, and they even went above and beyond by completing a few additional touch-ups at no extra cost. Thanks to their hard work, the home was ready on time, looked fantastic, and sold within just six days on the market! We highly recommend Sigura Construction to any homeowner or real estate professional looking for quality, speed, and reliability. They?re a part"

"I had an addition I wanted for our home. We were required to have a survey and an engineer drawing to apply for the permit. I had a list of 10-15 local engineering companies given to me by the permitting office. Very few would return my call. several the rest said they only do commercial or that this was too small of a job and would cost more. It was taking months and I was frustrated and decided to try Angie’s. I am so pleased. I had a response that very day I inquired for the job. It was clear what was needed from me. Great communication and answered questions to help me get them what they needed. The project from start to finish was drafted within 3 weeks. It could have been done sooner but I was traveling and not able to check emails. Once I told them to text me to alert me of an email they did that. I would highly recommend them."

Customers say: Quick response

"I would highly recommend Christopher for his drafting skills.,his 3d software is especially useful for relaying the building concepts. In todays world it is rare to get a person on the phone when needed but Christopher was always there for me to answer questions and was quick to return requests. Be sure to give him all the necessary design criteria in the beginning to smooth out the design process for him which will ultimately save you money. "

FAQs for drafting or cadd service projects in Mountain View, CA

Architectural drafting includes roofing. Some professionals who work at roofing manufacturing or installation companies may only work on roofing and cladding components.

A floor plan is a simplified drawing of the layout of rooms on one floor of a home. These are usually created by designers for arranging furniture and appliances. These are not technical drawings or blueprints and should not be used in place of them.

Draughtsman is simply the European spelling of draftsman. The terms are interchangeable.

If you have a complete design idea for a residential property and either you or your contractor employs an engineer, you can hire a draftsman to make your design into usable technical drawings. This is typical for simple additions and remodels like adding a bathroom, finishing a basement or adding a garage.

Traditionally, blueprints are technical drawings in white on blue paper. The term is now used interchangeably with any type of digital construction plan. Classic blueprints are still in use for older homes. Drafters translate these paper plans into digital representations when remodeling or adding on to older homes.

Little similarities exist between draftsmen, engineers and designers. They all complement and often work on teams with each other.

  • Drafter – creates technical drawings from design ideas. Usually works for engineers, designers and architects.

  • Engineer – designs and oversees the technical aspects of a construction project. Where an architect thinks of design aspects, the engineer works on making it a reality. They are mostly concerned with environmental issues and meeting all codes and regulations for the safety aspects of the project. They also manage projects.

  • Designer – only concerned with the visual aspects of a project. They often create their own technical drawings though sometimes work in conjunction with engineers, architects and draftspersons.
