Concept Grading, Drainage & Utility Plan Drafts

Site Plan and Civil Design Drafting Services

Our civil engineering and drafting team specialize in site plan, grading & drainage plans, utility plans, . We turn complex site conditions into clear conceptual plans that give contractors, builders, realtors and developers exactly what they need to prepare and finish the site. Our drawings are simple, accurate, and easy to read — designed to remove uncertainty and keep construction moving. 

Scope of work

We prepare permit-ready civil site plans for grading, drainage & utilities. Our work supports client up to point of permit submission; final stamping and permit approval are responsibility of client or engineer of record. We do not assume responsibility for permit approval.

Site Plans with Parking Analysis & ADA Compliance.

Detailed site plan designs for roads, driveways, paved areas, parking. We prepare site plan in accordance with applicable standards, including parking analysis, ADA compliance and building utilization.

Utility Layout & Coordination Plans

Draft design for underground utility infrastructure, including precise mapping and coordination of water, sewer and stormwater systems to ensure efficient and seamless construction.

Site Grading Plans

Concept grading designs illustrating precise cut and fill lines, slope directions and elevation changes to ensure accurate site preparation, proper drainage flow and balanced earthwork.

Demolition Plans

Clear instructions for safe and efficient removal of existing structures or site elements. These plans outline sequence, hazards, and disposal requirements.

Drainage & Stormwater Design and Layout Plans

Plans to manage runoff, prevent ponding, and ensure effective stormwater control.

Erosion Control Plans

Measures to prevent soil erosion and maintain site stability during construction.

 

What we deliver

Each package is customized for the project size and permit requirements so you get the right level of detail — no more, no less. Our drainage and grading plan packages typically include:

Files Required from Clients

Getting Started with Your Site Design Project

If a topography survey is not available, we can work using GIS data, though extra charges may apply. Similarly, if no proposed site plan or topography survey is provided, the client must provide a boundary or plat survey, which may also incur additional charges.

What Our Clients Say

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, our team includes certified civil design engineers with extensive experience in grading, drainage, utility, and site development plans. Each project is prepared and reviewed by qualified professionals to ensure accuracy, compliance with local codes, and practicality for contractors in the field.

 

If a topographic survey is unavailable, we can work with alternative data such as GIS maps, aerial imagery, or publicly available contour information. However, for precise construction-level plans, we recommend obtaining a professional survey to ensure accurate grading, drainage, and permitting compliance.

 

Absolutely. Our civil design engineers are experienced with local regulations across the U.S. and Canada. We create plans that align with municipal, county, and state requirements and can assist with plan revisions if needed for permit approval.

Our plans are highly detailed yet easy to read. They include cut and fill lines, spot elevations, surface flow directions, stormwater paths, utility locations, and typical construction cross-sections. Everything is designed to guide contractors accurately and minimize errors on-site.

 

Yes. We offer revisions to ensure the plans reflect updated site conditions or design changes. Our goal is to deliver construction-ready plans that contractors can rely on without confusion.

 

We provide plan sets in PDF format for review and field use, and editable CAD or GIS-compatible files if required. This ensures your team or contractors can easily integrate the plans into their workflow.

 

Turnaround depends on the project size and complexity. Typically, small to medium sites are completed within 4–7 working days, while larger, complex sites may take longer. We always provide a timeline when you request a quote.

To create accurate grading, drainage, and utility plans, we typically need the following:

  • Topographic survey (existing ground elevations, contours, and site features)

  • Site plans or civil drawings (CAD, PDF, or GIS files)

  • Property boundaries and easements

  • Geotechnical reports (soil types, topsoil thickness, rock depth — if available)

  • Utility maps (existing water, sewer, stormwater, and electrical lines)

  • Permit requirements or municipal standards (if applicable)

If any of these are not available, we can often work with alternative data sources, such as GIS, aerial imagery, or publicly available information. However, the more complete the documentation, the more precise and reliable the final civil plan design will be.
