For builders
Offer your clients planning included
You win the job at the first meeting. We make sure the job you won can actually be approved — under your name, at a fixed rate, without you carrying a drafting team.
Most builders lose clients in the gap between "yes, let's do it" and an approval. The client waits for a designer, the designer waits for a survey, and somebody else's quote arrives in the meantime. A builder who can answer "can I build this here, and what will it take" in the first week keeps the job.
How it works
- Free pathway review on every enquiry Send us the address before you quote. We tell you the zone, the constraints that matter, whether it is CDC or DA, and what approval will involve — in writing, within one business day. No charge, whether or not the job proceeds.
- Under your brand Reviews, concept plans and client correspondence go out as yours. Your client deals with you; we stay in the background unless you want us in the room.
- Fixed, staged fee One fixed number per job, staged to engagement and lodgement — not a proposal you have to wait for.
- Through to approval Drawings, the SoEE or CDC package, BASIX, and the consultants coordinated — survey, engineering, certifier. Then the Construction Certificate set your crew builds from.
What you get that a drafting service doesn't
- The pathway first. Every job starts with the planning answer, so you never quote a scheme the site can't carry.
- Constraints before price. Flood, bushfire, heritage, slope and the CDC exclusions are checked before the client signs, not after the certifier's first RFI.
- One point of contact. We brief and chase the surveyor, engineers, BASIX assessor and certifier.
What builders and clients say
5.0 from 6 reviews on Houzz · Houzz award recipient
“Planland handled the design, drawing of plans, lodgement and all dealings with council for an extensive renovation of our home. They made the whole process seamless and stress free.”
“I own a Building Company and I have worked closely with Planland over many years on numerous projects. They are innovative, professional, competitive in pricing and I highly recommend this company.”
“Link was instrumental in bringing our ideas together and we managed to build it all for the price of a generic 2 storey project home.”
