Drafting for Lowcountry waterfront construction

South Carolina’s coast supports a strong mix of residential and commercial marine work around Charleston, Mount Pleasant, Beaufort, Hilton Head, Bluffton, the Grand Strand and surrounding waterways. We support contractors with drawing production for docks, piers, seawalls and bulkheads, boat lifts, floating docks, pile-supported structures, boathouses, waterfront decks and related construction details.

Plans that can support SCDES coastal review

South Carolina Department of Environmental Services Bureau of Coastal Management reviews many alterations within coastal waters and tidelands, including docks, bulkheads, revetments, piers, boat ramps and dredging. Requirements depend on the site and scope. We can prepare and revise the plan sheets your local project team needs, while permit responsibility, agency coordination and professional decisions remain with the South Carolina contractor, owner and appropriately licensed professionals.

Lake Marion, Lake Moultrie and inland marine work

South Carolina also has active freshwater markets where docks, lifts, boathouses and shoreline work require clear plans. Around Lake Marion and Lake Moultrie, Santee Cooper manages property, leasing and permitting programs associated with the shoreline. We can support contractors with layouts, dimensions, elevations, sections and revisions while the contractor or owner confirms the applicable Santee Cooper, county or other project requirements.

Overflow CAD for busy marine contractors

When estimates are sold faster than plan sets can be produced, we can step in project by project. Late Night Coastal Design can function as overflow drafting capacity for contractors that already have their own engineer, permit consultant or internal project manager. Send the information you have and use us only where production is slowing the job down.

From field information to organized plan sheets

We can work from surveys, sketches, field dimensions, existing plan sets, photographs, markups, manufacturer data, engineer redlines and permit comments. Typical deliverables include site plans, proposed-condition layouts, pile plans, framing plans, elevations, sections, construction details, dimensions, notes, revisions and as-built documentation.

South Carolina markets we can support remotely

Remote drafting is available for projects throughout the state, including Charleston and Mount Pleasant, Beaufort County, Hilton Head and Bluffton, Georgetown and Murrells Inlet, Myrtle Beach and the Grand Strand, Lake Marion, Lake Moultrie and other waterfront communities. Local permitting and engineering stay with the project’s South Carolina team.
