How do I create a floor plan?

Your floor plan doesn't need to be of professional quality.  A hand-drawn floor plans works for us!  Floor plans are a way to help us visualize your space. Check with your realtor, you can often find floor plans from a realtor or city building department. There are also apps that can be purchased that help you create your own floor plan such as RoomSketcher.

Follow our step by step instructions to create a floor plan like the one above.

  1. Draw the general shape of the house as if you were looking from a bird's eye view.

  2. Add in the basics. Measure each wall from corner to corner to give the overall length.

  3. Add in the details. Go back to each wall to document each door, window, and opening with their measurements. Use a curved line to signify the door swing and double lines for a window as shown above.

  4. Don't forget to add other important measurements: ceiling height, overall height for each window and door, and other attached features like cabinetry, bathroom fixtures and stairs.
