The philosophy behind our drafting services is simple: we reckon building or renovating your home should be an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Building projects have a reputation for cost blow-outs, lengthy delays and poor advice. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
On completion you’ll be provided with a comprehensive set of documents that you can take to any builder, confident that all regulation, design, engineering and environmental matters have been fully considered.
When you walk into your new extension, or pull into the driveway of your new home, you won’t just see beautiful design, you’ll see money well spent. Feel free to browse through some of our building designers' projects.
Outstanding and professional I recently had the pleasure of working with Geoff Baker from Drafting Edge for a council permit for a custom picket fence. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and highly professional. Geoff was honest, knowledgeable and demonstrated a keen eye for detail. He took the time to thoroughly understand our requirements and guided us throughout the process. I highly recommend Geoff to anyone in need of top-notch drafting services.
We engaged Geoff and the Drafting Edge team to help us with a Deck and Front Fence permits. At face value this project wasn't complex but proved to have so many moving parts with engaging different stakeholders (surveyors, council, water authorities, engineers, fire consultants and the list went on) Geoff has been EXCELLENT. He has been patient, thoroughly and taken the time to navigate us through the process. I highly recommend him and will use him again in the future. Thanks Geoff. Great work!
Geoff prepared drawings for our pool fence and deck permit application. He was responsive, quick, efficient, helpful and professional. Recommended.
We used Drafting Edge to design an extension for our home. Although only a small job, Geoff was more than happy to take it on. Geoff was easy to deal with, super responsive and was always happy to have a chat on the phone about our project. Looking forward to seeing the end result soon. Thanks for everything Geoff!
We used Geoff late last year to draft up plans for a small reno. Highly recommend his services as he was always very prompt with communication and great to work with through the design process. He was very knowledgeable with all the relevant standards and design regulations and was honest in his communications with realistic time frames and council expectations. Would 100% use him again if we go down the path of building or renovating again.
Geoff and his team helped me with my extension and second story build in newport. Geoff was very knowledgeable and came up with heaps of ideas for flow / functionality. He was also a great communicator and helped whenever minor problems arose throughout the build. He could always assist with his vast knowledge and experience would definately reccomend and will definately use drafting edge again.
Geoff was great to work with for our home extension in Brighton.

His communication was great and detailed. We would highly recommend Geoff and his services!
Geoff provided an exceptional service with ideas and drawing up of our plans. His communication was excellent keeping us informed at all times, making the whole process seamless. Would not hesitate to use again or recommend to others.
I have worked with Geoff to submit an application to council, which required drawings and documentation to be submitted. Geoff was very efficient and professional and cost effective to work with. I got a great result and would be happy to recommend Geoff’s services to others.
Geoff provided great advice and was very generous with his time when assessing the viability of a house extension.
Geoff has been great to work with. We used him to prepare plans for an extension to our home and he is knowledgeable and happy to go back on forth on ideas, as well as suggest things that we hadn't considered, so we could get the best layout for our plans. Great value for money too
We've recently used Geoff in helping to draft plans for our home project. He has been very professional and helpful during this process. His communication was great and we always received fast and detailed replies to our emails and questions. His vast knowledge regarding building and council regulations was invaluable in assisting us with making amendments and achieving what we were after. We would gladly recommend Geoff and his services!
Geoff was very responsive to understanding my requirements and providing advice on Council requirements pertaining to heritage overlays. He also suggested modifications that would enhance the overall building project. I would thoroughly recommend him to provide his professional expertise on developing building plans and associated permits.
Geoff provided his drafting services for our home extension in Highett. He was very diligent in understanding our needs whilst also providing very technical and knowledgeable understanding of the building codes and Bayside council rulings to apply to our house as well as offer his own design tips and ideas that we have added to our design. He also offered lots of advice and support with regard to key design decisions and the next steps with regard to the building process. He also managed all our design services consulting works (surveying, energy, structural, soil reports etc) which made the process very easy. Highly recommend.
Geoff came in to help us with converting architectural plans to construction drawings. He found an intricacy that we had not been able to see in the plans about the height of our new en-suite ceiling. Rather than ignoring it, he called it to our attention. We had to re-submit our Council Planning permit, delaying our project further, but we can rest assured our final product will be so much better thanks to Geoff’s attention to detail. All the other components of the Building Permit application Geoff was also happy to explain in finite detail to me. I highly recommend Geoff’s services. Thanks Geoff!
