Modification Service

Make the plan yours

Almost nothing in our catalogue is fixed. If a plan is right in spirit but wrong in the detail, our drafting team will change it, and quoting the work costs you nothing.

How modifications work

Four steps from a marked-up PDF to a revised construction set.

Send us the changes

Tell us the plan number and what you want different. A sketch on the PDF, a marked-up screenshot or a plain written list all work fine.

We quote it free

You get a fixed written quote and a turnaround estimate, normally within two business days. No charge and no obligation for the quote itself.

Drafting and review

Once approved, our drafting team makes the changes and sends a proof for you to check before anything is finalised.

Revised set delivered

You receive the full updated construction set as a PDF, with every affected sheet redrawn and re-dimensioned, not just the floor plan.

What people change most

Turnaround runs from the day the quote is approved. Every modification is quoted individually, because the same change costs differently on a 1,200 square foot cabin and a 4,000 square foot estate.

What we can change

  • Mirroring and reversing layouts
  • Room sizes, wall positions and door or window placement
  • Exterior finishes, rooflines and elevation styling
  • Foundation type, from slab to crawl space or basement
  • Adding, removing or repurposing rooms
  • Garage size, orientation and bay count
  • Ceiling heights, vaults and roof pitch
  • Converting between imperial and metric

What stays local to you

  • Structural engineering stamps for your jurisdiction
  • Site-specific plans such as grading, septic or survey
  • Energy compliance calculations required by some states
  • Redistributing or reselling a modified plan under a new name

These are jurisdiction-specific and must be produced by a professional licensed in your state. Your builder can usually arrange them.

Ask before you buy, not after

If you already know a plan needs changing, send the request before you purchase. We will confirm the modification is feasible and quote it, so you are never stuck with a set that cannot become the house you wanted.

Send the plan number and your changes. We will come back within two business days with a fixed price and a timeline.
