Working together

Four steps. You always know where the job is.

No portal to log into, no ticket numbers. You send the basics, I send a price and a date, and from there it is email and a phone that gets answered.

STEP 01

Share the basics

Address, scope, equipment list and survey photos. If you have a utility bill or an existing panel photo, send those too — the service and main breaker rating drive half the electrical design.

You send — address, scope, equipment, photos
STEP 02

Quote and timeline

A fixed proposal with a clear schedule — not an hourly estimate that drifts. Price covers the drawings, the seal, and the comment responses. You know the number before anything starts.

You get — fixed price and a delivery date
STEP 03

Review and refine

The draft lands, typically within 24 to 48 hours. You mark it up — a PDF comment, a phone call, a photo of the set with a pen on it, whatever is fastest for you. I turn the edits quickly.

You get — a draft to mark up, not a final to argue with
STEP 04

Seal and submit

PE-sealed, permit-ready PDF, sheet-numbered and ready to upload. Wet stamp if your AHJ still wants paper. Then I handle reviewer comments until the permit is approved.

You get — a sealed set, plus comment handling

01 / Before you write

Send these and the quote comes back same day.

Missing items are the single biggest cause of delay — not drafting time. Everything below is usually already on your phone.

DeadlineIf there is one, say so up front

02 / Timing

What “fast” actually means here.

Typical windows for a complete intake. Complex commercial scopes and structural work take longer, and I will say so when you ask.

Typical turnaround
QuoteSame business day
Residential PV draft24–48 hours
Residential PV + storage24–48 hours
Revision roundUsually same day
Commercial draftScope dependent — quoted with a date
AHJ comment responsePrioritised over new work

03 / Questions I get asked

The fine print, in plain language.

Are revisions extra?

Reviewer comments are included — I revise until the permit is approved. Scope changes are different: if the equipment list or array size changes after the draft, that is new work and I will tell you before doing it.

Can you wet stamp?

Yes. Most AHJs take a digitally sealed PDF, but if yours still requires a wet signature and physical seal, say so at quote time and it ships.

Do you work outside Florida?

Florida and Arizona. If your project is elsewhere, ask — I will tell you honestly whether I can seal it rather than take the job and find out later.

Will my project appear on this site?

Only with your permission. Most of my work stays confidential, which is why the portfolio here is a small sample of 4,000+ projects.

Who do I actually talk to?

Me. There is no design team, no account manager and no offshore drafting desk. The person who answers the phone is the person who seals the set.

Can you review someone else’s set?

Yes — third-party and owner’s engineer reviews for code compliance and QA, whether you are buying the work, inheriting it, or checking a subcontractor.

Ready when you are.
