C-Sheets
Civil Engineering plans for work in the public right-of-way. These get submitted to the Department of Public Works separately from your building permit.
Erosion Control Plans
Plans that show how to keep soil in place during construction. Important for hillside projects where loose dirt can wash onto neighboring properties.
Excavation Plans
Shows where we cut into slopes, shoring locations, and how the site looks in cross-section. Includes street dimensions and adjacent alley layouts.
Grading Plans
Shows your property lines, structures, topography, and how water drains across the site. Includes curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and storm drain connections.
LID
Low Impact Development uses natural systems like rain gardens and permeable surfaces to manage stormwater on your property.
Hydrology Reports
We calculate how construction changes water flow on your property. The report shows pre and post-development drainage patterns with maps and recommendations for handling stormwater.
Sump Pump Design
When gravity drainage is not possible, we design sump pump systems to move water away from your foundation and prevent flooding.
Drainage Plans
Shows how water moves across your property and where it drains. Critical for hillside homes to keep water away from foundations and prevent issues with neighbors downhill.
