1. It will make your workflow quicker

Ever have a remodel where you are redrawing old plans from 20+ years ago? Have that sheet scanned, and sent to us for a fully-layered AutoCAD conversion. You will receive a vector DWG file, and you can quickly make your changes.

2. Clean up hand drawn plans

Many of our customers hand-draw plans, and they find it easier and has more character than CAD drawn plans. The problem is, often they work with others who only use CAD. We can convert your hand-drawn plans to CAD, so you can collaborate with other industries, including interior design, electrical, plumbing, mechanical and structural engineers.

3. You can take in more work

Now that you are not drawing everything yourself in CAD, you can take in more work, while we do a much of the AutoCAD work. This is especially useful for remodels, so you can make your changes, additions to the home, accessory dwelling unit (ADU), office, hardscape, landscape, decks, pool, electrical, or plan change. Check out this article on how this saves you time and money.

4. Redline changes

We can make changes to your plans. Simply grab a red pen, or make comments in the PDF specifying the changes you need, and we will make the changes. For example, you can circle walls, doors or windows you would like removed. Curious to how Convert2AutoCAD compares to other services that claim to perform the same service? Check out this article.
