A B O U T

Copper Architecture is one of the only architecture firms out there that specializes in providing permit drawings for deck and porch builders.  All of our drawings are reviewed by a licensed architect (licensed in SC, NC, GA, PA, NJ), assuring higher quality and clarity than the competition.  Our focus on this niche allows us to produce drawings quickly and efficiently.  It is our goal to deliver excellent permit drawings for builders, so they can focus on doing what they love, building beautiful spaces.

SUPERIOR DRAWINGS


• Our plans, elevations, and 3D perspectives utilize the power of Building Information Modeling (Autodesk Revit) to produce a graphically superior product, making them easier to read and understand. 


â–ª The entire deck or porch is modelled in 3 dimensions. 
â–ª Clear graphics reduce questions during permitting, errors during construction and confusion from the homeowner.  

​

Every project drawn by our company is reviewed by a licensed architect. 


â–ª This ensures a higher quality than the typical draftsman can provide. 
â–ª This can be used as a selling feature to homeowners.  

 

STREAMLINED PROCESS

​

• We offer a quick turnaround. We guarantee to complete drawings within 2 weeks, however, you will often receive them within a week or less.

•If you are currently producing drawings in-house… 

â–ª You can eliminate the HR headaches.  
â–ª This business fluctuates month to month.  By outsourcing, you are prepared for whatever the economy throws at you.  We can handle as few or as many drawings as you give us and thanks to our pricing model, it will have no affect on your bottom-line.

•If you are currently outsourcing to one or multiple draftsman… 

â–ª We can provide superior drawings, checked by a licensed architect.
â–ª Sending all projects to one company will reduce confusion. 

â–ª We are a growing company, not just a single individual. You won't have to worry about losing your draftsmen and starting the process of finding and training a new one.  We take care of that for you. 

â–ª Our pricing model allows your estimators to accurately account for drawing costs. This allows you to receive the benefits of our professional service without hurting your bottom line. The drafting cost may be built into the estimate and passed on to the homeowner.

STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING


• It is our goal to add a licensed structural engineer to our team within the next year.  Our drawings are designed to meet the prescriptive codes, however, there are occasionally projects that do not fit within these codes and require custom structural engineering (which we coordinate with outside providers).  Examples include long beam spans, sunrooms, extra tall decks, and retaining walls.  We would like to bring these structural design capabilities in-house so that we can be a one stop shop for all your structural needs.
