"Dave was the BEST to work with. He didn’t hesitate to take a lot of time to help me understand the process of adding an addition to our home, and helped us put together plans that were exactly what we were looking for. I definitely recommend ALA to anyone looking for an architect. We can’t wait to move forward with our project! -Val and Stephen"

"The overall work was good, some issues. the bigest problem was long delays due to the owner not ording materials in a timely manner. the project was started in October and was supposed to be done by November 12th. the rafters were ordered late and had a long delay, had he ordered the rafters when the plan was approved, the project would have been done in a timely manner. The garage door opening was too large when the door instaler showed up and PM services had to come and add atleast 3.5 inches so the door could be installed properly( 2 week delay) The side door had a 3.5 x 3.5 gap at thet bottom sine the slab had incorrect dimensions. PM services did not have square washers on the building anchors and not enough of them. also needed to add a center support brace in the rafters from front to back of garage, per city inspector. Last but not least I still have an open trench where they ran the electric to the garage, because the project wasn't completed ontime, frozen dirt."

FAQs for drafting or cadd service projects in Waukesha, WI

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.
