Building a new house or renovating your property is always exciting!
However, the Development Application process can sometimes be confusing and overwhelming, especially if it is your first project. Every council, application and project is different.
The Design Plus Drafting team will lead you through the DA process from starting your design through to lodging all of the relevant drawings and documents with your local council.
With over 300 successful Development Applications lodged with councils throughout NSW we’ll look after all of the hard work and take the stress out of renovating or building your new home. We’ll even look after the RFIs (Requests for Information) whilst your DA is being reviewed by the council’s planners.
The Design Plus Drafting team will laser scan your home (using our latest 3D camera technology) and design new spaces that you will love living in.
