Drafting & Design
Professional Drafting & Design Services for Homeowners and Investors in Los Angeles
Drafting and design is where a project succeeds or stalls before a single wall goes up. Plans that are unclear, incomplete, or out of step with local code get kicked back at permitting, costing you weeks and money. At AVICA Construction, our drafting and design services give homeowners and investors professionally prepared plans built to pass review the first time. We help shape the design to match your goals and budget, then produce the detailed construction drawings your project needs to reach permitting and construction. From custom homes to additions to ADUs, we draw it right so you can build it right.
Drafting & Design Services That Take Your Project From Idea to Permit-Ready
You can picture the space you want to build. Turning that vision into drawings a city will approve is a different skill. AVICA Construction provides professional drafting and design services that give homeowners and investors clear, buildable plans, engineered to move through permitting and ready to hand to a builder.

What Drafting & Design Services Actually Get You
A drawing is more than a picture of your project. It is the document that secures your permit, guides your builder, and controls your cost. When plans are vague or fail to account for local code, the result is delays, change orders, and budget surprises. AVICA's drafting and design services remove that risk. We produce clear, accurate, buildable plans that align your vision with what your city will approve, so your project moves forward instead of sitting in review.
Homeowners get plans they can understand and trust. Investors get drawings that protect their timeline and their returns. Both get a team that designs for buildability from the first line.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between drafting and design?
Design is deciding what gets built, the layout, flow, and function of your space. Drafting is producing the precise, scaled drawings that document that design for permitting and construction. AVICA handles both. We help shape the design to fit your goals, site, and budget, then draft the detailed plans your city and your builder need. You get one team from first idea to permit-ready drawings.
Will my plans be ready for permitting?
Yes. We prepare your construction drawings to meet local code and submittal requirements, structured to move through the permitting process cleanly. Because we draw with a builder's eye, our plans account for how the project will actually be built, which is exactly what reduces the back-and-forth that gets plans kicked back at review.
Do you design ADUs and additions?
Yes. We design and draft custom homes, additions, remodels, new builds, and accessory dwelling units. ADU plans are drawn for California's ADU rules and your lot's specific constraints. If an ADU is your project, our dedicated ADU Construction services cover the full build from plans through completion.
Can you build the project after designing it?
Yes, and it is one of the biggest advantages of working with us. As a licensed Los Angeles general contractor, AVICA can carry your project straight from permit-ready plans into construction, keeping the whole path under one roof. You are never handing drawings to a stranger and hoping they build what you designed. The team that drew it can build it.
How long does drafting and design take?
Timelines depend on the size and complexity of the project and how many revisions the design goes through. A straightforward ADU or addition moves faster than a full custom home. During your consultation we give you a realistic schedule for the drafting and design work so you know what to expect before permitting begins.
