Welcome

RCD is a residential design and drafting company. We specialize in development of construction documents and project planning for custom home designs, additions and renovations. We combine our knowledge of residential home design with CADD software to produce unparalleled 3D modeling for homeowners and concise construction/permit documents for contractors.

RCD works with the homeowner and contractor to develop design plans that express on paper the full scope of the build. It is RCD’s goal to develop design solutions and information that communicate the homeowner’s vision. Our process consistently produces the information that today’s residential projects require to obtain objectives without surprises. We take into consideration the constructability from simple to complex residential designs. Additionally, our ‘Field’ knowledge of various methods of construction makes for an efficient project flow and ease of management.

Services

RCD provides CAD modeling, conceptual plans and permit drawings for residential projects of any size. We provide the right tools for a homeowner and contractor to visualize the completed project and exact information required for permitting by local building plan reviewers.

We work with homeowners, remodeling contractors and builders from start to finish. Our services include:

  • Design a new home from ‘scratch’, rework a customer’s design or even take a ‘napkin’ drawing and complete it.
  • Blend an addition, ‘pop-top’, ‘in-law’ suite, sunroom, screened porch, sundeck or front portico so it looks original to the home.
  • Create plans for a seamless renovation, kitchen expansion, basement build out or master bedroom suite.
  • Produce ‘as built’ drawings, sun studies, master plans, finish schedules, interior elevation studies, electrical / lighting plans and outdoor living plans.
  • Project Management and consulting to include cost estimation, critical path management, quality control and problem solving.

Process

  • Initial contact from client. We will discuss the general scope of the project and RCD’s cadd process. Information is exchanged and reviewed so a ‘Concept’ model can be developed.
  • Conference call/webinar to review ‘Concept” model to go over proposed schedule and pricing.
  • Site meeting includes discussion of project in detail, collect any additional information and execute agreement between parties.
  • Develop ‘Preliminary’ model based on ‘Concept’.  We will meet and review preliminary so it can be reviewed and fine-tuned. We will also provide ‘overview’ documents for the bidding process.
  • Develop enhanced ‘Permit’ model phase involved selecting final materials and building styles.  The structure and background data is evaluated.
  • Generate final permit drawings for the final review and transfer of plans.
  • We stand behind all our plans and offer clarifications and comments as needed.
