How it is priced

Every job is quoted in writing from your drawings or brief before any work starts. The quote is a fixed price in Australian dollars, with the scope and the files you receive, and the delivery date is agreed in the quote. There are no prices on this website because every job is different.

Steady work? A monthly arrangement has a fixed monthly fee, quoted for your volume.

Limits

  • Drafted to the design supplied. We do not provide civil or engineering design, or certification.
  • Your engineer checks and issues the drawings.
  • Volumes are calculated from the levels provided. Bulking, compaction and site conditions are not included unless the quote says so.

Questions

Do you do the civil design?

No. The design stays with your engineer. We draft it, and your engineer checks and issues the drawings.

Can you work out earthworks quantities?

Yes. Cut and fill volumes are worked from the existing and design levels you provide.

Our drawings, floor plans, models and estimates are for pricing, information and marketing. They are not for a building permit, construction or engineering certification unless a suitably registered practitioner reviews and adopts them.
