"I worked with Alpha once before, and they assisted with a second project 2 years ago which, now finally completed, I'm able to write a review about. Alpha helped with structural plans for windows in a garden level unit in order to prepare the proposal for city approval. Alpha is a big company and it took them a little while to complete everything; however I can certainly say that the engineer and contact people were knowledgeable and thorough. The plans were approved with their help and now that the unit is permitted for occupancy, the windows are a lovely attribute to the space."

You’ll want the right pro for the job. Hire a draftsperson when you need cost-efficient technical drawings, choose an architect for a full design and aesthetics, and bring in a structural engineer if safety or load-bearing elements are in play. Each expert keeps your plans code-compliant and your project on track.
Yes, a qualified draftsperson can produce a complete set of residential blueprints for building a house without an architect’s oversight. Look for a drafting pro in your area with current certification and solid experience, then confirm with your local building department that the draftsperson’s stamp meets building codes in the area where you live.
Technically, you can draw your own blueprints, but drafting an accurate, code-ready plan is a tall order. Misplaced walls or overlooked regulations can trigger expensive delays once construction starts. If you want to stay on schedule and meet local requirements, let an architect, draftsperson, or engineer refine—or redraw—your plans. Their fee is minor compared with the cost of fixing mistakes in the field.
