How Pricing Works
One flat price per house, any size.
One price per house
Floor plans or the full permit set, one flat price for the house, 1 to 3 floors.
Checked before you pay
The plan is checked against the building code before you pay. A plan we cannot draw costs nothing.
Returned if it fails
A drawing that fails after you pay is returned automatically.
How It Works
Five steps from your rooms to your drawing set.
Choose the building
Pick the building type and what you are doing: a new build, a renovation or a concept.
Set the footprint
Width, depth, floors, province and garage, in feet or metres.
Lay out each floor
Choose the rooms for each floor. A floor that repeats uses the same layout, free.
Review
We check your plan against the building code before you pay. If it cannot be drawn, you see why.
Download the set
The engine draws every sheet of the set. Download them one by one, or the whole set as one PDF.
Features
What every drawing set includes.
On a slab or crawl space, your drawing set holds a cover sheet, code compliance, a floor plan for every floor, door and window schedules, four elevations, a roof plan, building, wall and stair sections, a foundation plan and a framing plan for every framed floor.
On a full basement, it also holds a basement plan: a cover sheet, code compliance, a floor plan for every floor, door and window schedules, four elevations, a roof plan, building, wall and stair sections, a foundation plan, a basement plan and a framing plan for every framed floor.
Code compliance sheet
Each article checked and its result, under the building code as your province adopts it.
Every floor dimensioned
Walls, rooms and overall sizes on every floor, with each window and door tagged.
Door and window schedule
Every door and window listed by its tag, with its size.
Permit notes
What your building permit still needs: structural design, energy, a site plan and details.
3 revisions included
Change the same house up to three times at no extra cost.
Feet or metres
Every dimension and schedule in the unit you choose.
Why check the plan before the permit
The Challenge
A floor plan usually waits on a draftsperson, and a code problem often shows up only at the permit desk.
How Ridgeplate helps
Ridgeplate lays out your house in minutes and checks it against the building code article by article, so a problem shows up before you pay, not at the permit desk.
