Working Drawings

Draftroom have partnered with industry-leading consultants who provide the required reports to ensure a smooth process through the development application (where required) and building approval phases. This collaborative approach is integral to our process, where high-calibre results are consistently achieved.

Consultants and Applications with Building Designer

Working drawings are a set of highly detailed plans and schedules essential for finishing consultants, building approval, and construction. These drawings specify dimensions, materials, construction techniques, building codes, and other crucial details necessary to ensure the design is constructed accurately and on time.

Reviews from our clients

  • “I would thoroughly recommend them to anybody doing a new build or renovation.”

    DraftRoom were prompt when getting back to us and when they came out to see what the scope of works entailed, they listened to what we wanted and gave us other options for the same areas that we hadn’t thought of. They utilised the space extremely well and it just flows. The plans were professionally drawn up, clear and detailed.

  • "Extremely helpful, professional, and reasonably priced"

    Laurence from DraftRoom was a pleasure to work with. He was extremely helpful, professional, reasonably priced and he got our job done in record time! The communication was amazing and there were no hidden costs or add ons. I can not recommend DraftRoom enough. 10/10

  • "Went the extra mile by making the time to be present on site"

    Draftroom jumped into our massive full property renovation and extension after we were let down by another provider. My consulting Extent Heritage Architect Ms Pearce described Draftroom's plans as an excellent example of work and requested contact details so she could utilise the services for the specialised work she conducts throughout Australia.

  • “The attention to detail can be seen throughout the whole house."

    Very professional service. We had no issues with the building approvals process and they were on hand for consults if and when we needed them. The team gave us substantial support & perfectly crystallised our thoughts into an aesthetically pleasing design which is light, airy and a pleasure to be in. The attention to detail can be seen throughout the whole house.

  • "They made the process simple and were open to our own input."

    I contacted Draft room to design a secondary dwelling for me. They made the process simple and were open to our own input. I would highly recommend and will use them again.
