Sketch to CAD Conversion UK

Upload your hand-drawn sketch and receive professional CAD floor plans. Fast, affordable, and ready for planning applications across the UK.

What you get

When you submit your sketch, we convert it into professional CAD floor plans that you can use for planning applications, builders quotes, estate agents, or your own records.

  • Professional floor plan(s) from your sketch, photo, or PDF
  • PDF output – printable, easy to share with councils and contractors
  • DWG output – editable CAD file for architects and builders
  • Clear dimensions shown (if provided on your sketch)

Note: We convert your sketch accurately. We do not create architectural designs or provide structural calculations. If you need design services or structural sign-off, we recommend consulting a qualified architect.

FAQs

Can you convert hand-drawn sketches to CAD?

Yes, we specialise in converting hand-drawn sketches, photos of plans, and even rough measurements into professional CAD floor plans. Your sketch doesn't need to be perfect - just clear enough to show the room layout.

Do you supply DWG and PDF?

Yes, all orders include your floor plan in PDF format (for printing and sharing), JPEG format (for digital use), and DWG format (editable CAD file for architects and builders).

Are these suitable for planning permission?

Our CAD floor plans are designed to meet the requirements for planning applications. They include accurate dimensions, room labels, and professional presentation suitable for council submissions.

What if my sketch has no measurements?

We recommend including measurements for accuracy. If you're unsure how to measure, purchase our £2 measuring guide which includes step-by-step instructions. Basic plans can be produced from sketches without measurements, but dimensions won't be included.

How long does it take?

Standard turnaround is 5-7 working days. Most straightforward conversions are completed within this timeframe. We'll contact you if we need any clarification on your sketch.

What areas do you cover?

We're an online service covering the whole of the UK. Simply upload your sketch and we'll convert it - no site visit required for most projects.

Can I request revisions?

Yes, we correct any conversion errors at no extra charge. If we've misinterpreted your sketch, we'll fix it. Additional design changes beyond the original scope may incur a fee.

What file formats do you accept?

We accept photos (JPEG, PNG), PDFs, and scanned documents. You can upload pictures taken on your phone - just ensure the sketch is clearly visible and in focus.
