Architectural Drafting Services
Drafting provides the technical foundation for your construction project. Accurate drawings ensure council approval processes proceed efficiently and builders have clear specifications for construction.
Planshop has delivered architectural drafting for Sydney projects since 1985. Our draftspersons and architects create documentation meetings
National Construction Code (NCC) requirements and local council standards.

Drafting Documentation We Prepare
Development Application (DA) Packages
Complete documentation for council submission. Our DA packages include site plans, floor plans, elevations, sections, and construction details designed to pass the assessment with minimal requests for additional information.
DA documentation typically includes:
Site plans showing property boundaries and setbacks
Floor plans at 1:100 or 1:50 scale
Elevations showing all building faces
Sections illustrating construction details
Shadow diagrams for daylight assessment
Materials and construction specifications

Most DA submissions receive council feedback within 6-12 weeks. Our documentation reduces review time by addressing common council requirements proactively.

Complying Development Certificate (CDC) Packages
CDC offers faster approval for projects meeting specific standards. We assess eligibility and prepare complete documentation for streamlined processing.
CDC is available for:
New homes meeting height (max 8.5m) and size requirements
Home additions within exempt development limits
Secondary dwellings (granny flats up to 60m²)
Renovations and alterations within complying standards
CDC approvals typically process in 2-4 weeks compared to 6-12 weeks for DA.
Construction Certificate Documentation
Once approval is granted, construction certificates ensure builders have clear, compliant documentation for construction. These drawings guide construction and ensure compliance with NCC and Australian Standards.
Construction certificate documentation includes:
Detailed floor plans with dimensions and levels
Structural details for engineer coordination
Material specifications and finish schedules
BASIX compliance documentation
Services coordination (plumbing, electrical, drainage)
Fire safety and accessibility details

What Sets Our Drafting Apart
Local Council Expertise
We have worked with Inner West, City of Sydney, Woollahra, Waverley, and Northern Beaches councils. We understand their specific requirements and assessment processes.
Registered Professionals
Qualified draftspersons and architects review all work. Our Nominated Architect, Martin Taylor, is registered in NSW and UK.
Current Technology
ArchiCAD and BIM workflows ensure precise coordination between design intent and construction delivery.
Accuracy That Prevents Errors
Precision documentation prevents costly construction errors and council rejection delays.
Selected Drafting Projects
The drawings below illustrate the level of detail and coordination we bring to every project. From new homes and alterations to secondary dwellings, our documentation is prepared to meet NCC requirements and support efficient council and builder processes.
These samples show typical plans, elevations, and sections across recent Sydney projects. Each drawing set is developed to clearly communicate layout, construction details, and compliance information for DA, CDC, and construction certificate stages.
Project locations include Waverton, Pagewood, Maroubra and Roseville.
