Builder-ready architectural drawings for your home renovation.

Clear, coordinated drawing packages that let you and your builder get on with the work - without the cost or timeline of a full architect's appointment.

Renovations go wrong in the gaps between ideas and instructions.

You know what you want your home to feel like. Your builder knows how to build. But somewhere between a Pinterest board and a quote, things get lost – dimensions guessed at, finishes assumed, and decisions made on site that don't match what you imagined.

A proper drawing pack closes that gap. It tells your builder exactly what's coming out, what's going in, where every fixture sits, and what every surface is made of – so you spend your budget on the renovation, not on the change-orders.

A complete drawing pack your builder can price and build from.

Every project is delivered as a single pdf set, drawn to scale, with a consistent visual language across every sheet. The full pack typically includes:

  • Existing plans – measured and verified on site

  • Demolition plan – colour coded to remove ambiguity

  • After-demolition plan – the in-between stage most packs skip

  • New construction plan – every new wall, opening and fixture

  • Planned status – the finished home, fully laid out

  • Interior elevations – four walls per room with materials fixtures and finishes specified

  • 3D axonometric views – so you can actually see what you're agreeing to

  • General notes and material schedule – every finish, every fixture in one place.

Four weeks, five clear stages.

01 – Discovery call (Week 1)

A free 30-minute video call where we define the brief. You'll walk me through each space and talk about what your needs are. By the end I'll ask for a Pinterest board or reference images so we're aligned on aesthetics before any drawings start.

02 – Existing plans (Week 1 - 2)

I work from the estate agent floor plans, redraw and scale them properly, and then have key dimensions verified on site by your builder (or by you with a tape measure if you don't have one yet). I adjust the drawings to match. This becomes the accurate base everything else is built on.

03 – Design development (Week 2 - 3)

I produce the first round of renovation drawings and walk you through them on a follow-up call. Your input shapes round two. The design stays yours throughout. I make sure I'm translating your ideas into drawings, not imposing my own ideas.

04 – Detailing (Week 3 - 4)

Once the layout is signed off, I develop the interior elevations, axonometric, and materials schedule. You see every surface, every fixture, every finish before your builder does.

05 – Final pack delivered (End of Week 4)

A single, complete PDF issued to you. Two rounds of minor revisions included if anything needs tweaking after issue.

A recent project – a Battersea family home.

An internal renovation across three floors of a Victorian terrace. The homeowner used the drawing pack to brief her builder directly, with a separate kitchen specialist appointed for the kitchen joinery.
