CAD drafting and redraws

Hand sketches, marked-up PDFs and old paper plans turned into clean, accurate CAD drawings.

cad drafting & redraws

From a sketch to a proper drawing.

We redraw sketches, scans and old plans in CAD, so they can be edited, printed to scale and used by other professionals.

Plenty of projects start as a sketch on paper or a photo of a drawing that is decades old. They are useful to you, but a council, a builder or an engineer needs something they can scale and rely on.

We turn what you have into clear technical drawings. It is a straightforward service for homeowners, builders, developers and other designers who need drafting capacity.

questions

What people ask about CAD drafting.

Can you work from a photo of a sketch?

Yes, as long as it has enough dimensions. If something is missing we will ask.

Yes. If your information is not enough to draw to scale, we can carry out a measured survey.

PDF as standard, with DWG or DXF on request.

They can form the basis of an application, but a planning submission has specific requirements. Tell us if that is the aim.
