A successful project will be the reflection of successful communication between the Draftsperson, client, and builder. The project itself is one of complexity, as it requires constant monitoring of time, quality and costs.

1. What Does A Draftsperson Do?

A draftsperson is a professionally qualified and legally registered designer, who, like an architect, can assist you to design and plan your new home, home extensions, or business. Their role is to coordinate a team of specialist consultants such as landscape architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, interior designers and sub contractors and design and plan your vision and turn it into a reality.

2. Cost Benefits Of Using A Draftsperson

By investing in the services of a draftsperson, you ensure a full exploration of various options for the design of your building. Through good design, a draftsperson can enhance the value of your building and may produce significant savings by advising you on the choice of materials, floor plan and external finishes.

3. Your Contribution To A Successful Project

It is wise to ask your draftsperson to assist you in preparing a final concept because you will not achieve a good result from a poor concept. You and your draftsperson should discuss and agree on the scope and cost of drafting services before the project has started and ensures the agreement is in writing.

4. Designing And Gaining Approval For Your Building

As the client, it is your responsibility to make sure you fully understand the plans and drawings. You also need to consider the draftsperson’s advice and recommendations and in return give clear instructions. Changes at the stage are simpler and less expensive than changes later in the project.
