Free Construction Document Review Offer

We’ve reviewed countless project drawings that clients believed were ready for construction. Unfortunately, many of these documents turned out to be missing vital details, were unclear, were poorly coordinated with engineering plans or had some other issue.

While having a construction certificate means you’ve met certain regulatory requirements, it doesn’t ensure your plans are complete, cohesive, or truly build-ready.

What We’ve Observed

Over the years, we’ve noticed a recurring pattern:

  • Plans that don’t align with engineering or consultant drawings

  • Missing or unclear information about materials, finishes, or fixtures

  • Inconsistent, contradictory or incomplete details that confuse builders and trades

  • Scope of work that isn’t clearly defined

These oversights can cause all kinds of hiccups—from scheduling delays to higher costs—as your project moves from paper to real-world construction.

Common Misconceptions

The biggest misconception is that when you get the drawings priced and sign a contract, any problems with the drawings become the builder’s problem and you have effectively passed on the risk to the builder. This can’t be further from the truth and will only work as far as everything runs smoothly. The minute something goes wrong it has a risk of becoming your problem again

The Risks of Incomplete Documentation

If your plans aren’t truly construction-ready, you risk:

  • Costly Variations: Surprises often lead to additional charges and contract variations.

  • Delays and Downtime: Missing details stall progress when builders have to pause and seek clarifications.

  • Quality Issues: Lack of clarity can lead to mistakes, rework, or lower-quality outcomes.

  • Builder Disputes: Ambiguities in scope or documentation can spiral into serious disagreements.

Our Solution

We believe the key is taking the time up front to review every aspect of your project documentation. By catching gaps, inconsistencies, or overlooked details early, you can save yourself the stress and extra costs later.

Our Free Assessment Overview

To help homeowners avoid these pitfalls, we offer a complimentary assessment covering five main areas:

  • Drawings Quality & Clarity: Are your plans legible, consistent, and accurately dimensioned?

  • Scope of Works: Is everything spelled out so your builder knows exactly what’s required?

  • Coordination & Risk Identification: Are all elements—structural, engineering, roof details—lined up correctly?

  • Budget & Procurement: Do you have a realistic budget with clear allocations, and a plan for sourcing trades and materials?

  • Timeline & Scheduling: Does your schedule include clear milestones and contingency planning?
