- Your ideas: sketches or notes on the rooms you want, and where the stairs could go.

Second Storey Addition Drawings: Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a second storey addition and an attic conversion?
A second storey addition builds a new level on top of the house. An attic conversion makes use of the existing roof space. Both add room without enlarging the footprint, but they involve different structural work.
Do you design the addition or provide engineering?
No. We draft from the information you supply. Structural work usually needs an engineer, and design decisions and approvals stay with your designer, engineer and certifier.
What if I do not have plans of my existing house?
Send measurements and photos. We can draft the existing plans from them, and we confirm the scope and any limits in your quote. The drawings are only as accurate as the information supplied.
Do you guarantee approval?
No. Approval depends on your design, your council or certifier and their requirements. We prepare drawings from the information you supply.
What file formats do you deliver?
We deliver PDF and DWG files. If you need another format, tell us and we will confirm it in your quote.
How long does it take and what does it cost?
It depends on the size and complexity of the project. We confirm the price and timeframe in your quote before any work starts.
Do you work outside Queensland?
Yes. We work with homeowners, builders and designers across Australia, online.
