PERMIT DRAWING OVERVIEW

What This Project Type Requires

Manufactured-home placement is more than a footprint on a lot. Reviewers may evaluate home orientation, front/side/rear setbacks, driveway access, septic or sewer connection, utilities, flood or elevation information, skirting or foundation coordination, tie-down requirements, porches or carports, and supporting manufacturer documentation.

TYPICAL SCOPE

What May Be Included in the Permit Package

Home Placement & Orientation

Proposed home footprint, dimensions, orientation, entries, porches, carports, and relationship to the lot.

Setbacks & Property Information

Property boundaries, front/side/rear setbacks, easements, street frontage, and existing improvements.

Driveway, Septic & Utilities

Driveway or access, septic/drainfield, well, water, sewer, and known utility information when available.

Flood / Foundation Coordination

Flood-zone or elevation information plus foundation, tie-down, setup, or manufacturer documents when required.

PERMIT REVIEW

Issues to Coordinate Before Finalizing the Design

Setbacks & Zoning

Manufactured-home placement can be controlled by zoning, minimum lot dimensions, setbacks, overlays, and local use restrictions.

Septic & Utilities

Septic, drainfield, well, water, sewer, and utility locations can determine the final home and driveway placement.

Flood & Elevation

Flood zones may trigger elevation, foundation, anchoring, or floodplain documentation.

Foundation / Tie-Downs

Installation, foundation, tie-down, skirting, and setup requirements are often handled through separate manufacturer or engineering documents.

LOCAL REQUIREMENTS MATTER

Permit Scope Varies by Property and Jurisdiction

Send the address, source documents, dimensions, and any review comments you already have. We will identify the appropriate site-plan, architectural, structural, engineering, or supporting permit scope.

HOW IT WORKS

From Project Information to Permit Drawings

01

Send the Address & Scope

Share the location, intended work, survey, plans, photos, manufacturer information, or permit comments.

02

We Review Requirements

We identify the project-specific site, structural, zoning, engineering, or supporting permit needs.

03

Prepare & Coordinate

The agreed drawing package is developed around the property, project information, and jurisdiction.

04

Review & Permit Support

Review the draft and return applicable permit comments for scope-related revisions.

REAL PROJECT CONTEXT

Manufactured Home Placement Has to Coordinate the Entire Lot

The home footprint is only one part of the permit. Driveway access, setbacks, septic and well information, utilities, porches or carports, flood conditions, home orientation, foundation or tie-down information, and manufacturer documents can all affect approval.

WHY SITE PLANS ONLINE USA

Permit-Focused Drawings, Coordinated Around the Actual Project

One team can coordinate the property, drawing package, supporting disciplines, and plan-review corrections within the agreed scope.

WHY IT MATTERS

Placement-Focused Site Planning

The drawing is built around the actual home model, lot, setbacks, access, septic or utility conditions, and accessory structures.

WHY IT MATTERS

Rural Property Coordination

Large lots, private wells, septic systems, easements, flood areas, and long driveways can be coordinated in one clear site layout.

WHY IT MATTERS

Foundation / Tie-Down Support

When local review requires foundation, anchoring, setup, or professional engineering, that scope can be coordinated separately.

WHY IT MATTERS

Replacement & Relocation Support

Existing utility connections, prior home pads, access, porches, and site constraints can be coordinated for replacement or relocated units.

SCOPE & PRICING

What Affects the Final Drawing Package

We price the work around the actual permit scope rather than forcing every project into the same package. These are the most common items that change the drawing effort.

  • Home dimensions
  • New vs replacement placement
  • Survey / boundary information
  • Septic and well layout
  • Driveway length and access
  • Flood-zone requirements
  • Porches / carports
  • Foundation / tie-down scope
  • Manufacturer documents
  • Permit corrections

PERMIT QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do manufactured homes require a site plan?

Many jurisdictions require a site or plot plan showing home placement, setbacks, access, utilities, septic information, and other lot conditions before installation permits can be approved.

2. Can you prepare the site plan from my survey?

Yes. A current survey or recorded plat is usually the best base for accurate placement and setback dimensions.

3. Can you include septic and well locations?

Yes, when reliable septic, drainfield, and well information is supplied.

4. Can you show a porch or carport?

Yes. Attached or detached accessory structures can be incorporated when their dimensions and scope are available.

5. Do you prepare foundation or tie-down plans?

Foundation, tie-down, or installation engineering can be coordinated as a separate structural or professional-review scope where required.

6. What if the property is in a flood zone?

Provide any flood-zone data, elevation certificate, or local floodplain comments available. Additional elevation or engineering requirements may apply.

7. Can you show the driveway?

Yes. Proposed access and driveway placement can be included as part of the site plan.

8. Can you prepare a replacement-home site plan?

Yes. Existing utilities, access, septic, and the previous home location can be coordinated with the new placement.

9. Do you work with modular homes too?

Yes, although modular construction may have different state and local review procedures than HUD-code manufactured homes.

10. Can you include a detached garage or shed?

Yes. Accessory structures can be shown and coordinated when they are part of the permit scope.

11. Can you prepare plans for a home already placed?

Existing or after-the-fact site conditions can be documented when sufficient measurements and source information are available.

12. Do I need a current survey?

That depends on the jurisdiction and quality of available boundary information. Some authorities require a current certified survey.

13. Can you revise permit comments?

Yes. Applicable site-plan comments can be reviewed and incorporated within the agreed scope.

14. Can PE review be coordinated?

Yes, where required for foundation, anchoring, structural, or other engineering items, subject to professional review and acceptance.

15. Do you work nationwide?

Yes. We support manufactured and mobile home site-plan projects across the United States.
