From house photo to stamped set: what we send, what the AHJ wants, typical timelines.
Our packet
Configuration summary, product specs, BIM placeholder, and — for NOA jobs — Florida / Miami-Dade product approval references. Upload the house photo in the configurator so engineering can comment before you pay a plans examiner twice.
Questions people ask
