Question 1

Can you provide a PE stamp for drawings I already have?

Accepted Answer

We can assess your existing drawings and coordinate an eligible engineering scope. The responsible professional must have the involvement, control and technical basis required under the applicable state rules before signing and sealing the work.

Question 2

How much does PE stamping cost in Florida?

Accepted Answer

Qualifying Florida engineering review and seal-coordination services start at $1,200. The actual quote depends on the design, calculations, sheets and professional work required.

Question 3

Do you provide digitally signed and sealed PDFs?

Accepted Answer

We coordinate accepted digital or electronic signing and sealing methods where available and appropriate. The final format must comply with the responsible professional's state regulations and the permitting authority's requirements.

Question 4

Do you provide physical wet-ink seals?

Accepted Answer

Physical signing and sealing can be evaluated where the responsible professional and jurisdiction require or accept that format. Delivery method and any additional document-handling charges are confirmed in the proposal.

Question 5

Can I send drawings prepared by my contractor?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for an initial assessment. Whether the work can eventually be signed and sealed depends on the responsible professional's review and applicable preparation or supervision requirements. Some drawings may need to be substantially revised or recreated.

Question 6

Do you work with engineers in multiple states?

Accepted Answer

We coordinate with a community of engineering professionals and assess state-specific project requests. Actual licensure, discipline and availability are verified for the proposed professional scope.

Question 7

Can you stamp an entire architectural and MEP drawing set?

Accepted Answer

Not automatically. Different sheets may involve architectural or separate engineering responsibilities. We identify which professionals and services the project requires.

Question 8

Can you help when the building department asks for an engineer's stamp?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Send the written reviewer comment and the previously submitted plans so the requested technical and professional scope can be identified.

Question 9

Do you provide structural calculations?

Accepted Answer

We can coordinate structural calculation services for eligible projects where they are required or appropriate. Their inclusion is established in the project proposal.

Question 10

What happens if the engineer finds problems in my drawings?

Accepted Answer

We communicate the relevant technical issues and help identify the necessary drawing or design changes. The engineer decides whether the final work can be professionally accepted.

Question 11

Do you provide re-stamping after city corrections?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we coordinate eligible revisions and reissue of professional engineering documents when accepted by the responsible professional.

Question 12

Are revisions included after the initial delivery?

Accepted Answer

Reasonable corrections within the agreed scope may be included under the written terms. Significant redesign, additional calculations and new services may involve extra charges.

Question 13

Can you provide third-party independent review?

Accepted Answer

We can assess and coordinate eligible independent review requests where appropriately qualified and authorized professionals are available. The program's independence and qualification requirements must be verified.

Question 14

Is a third-party PE review the same as a private-provider inspection?

Accepted Answer

No. Independent engineering review, private-provider plan review, and special inspection are different services with different professional and regulatory requirements.

Question 15

Will a PE-stamped plan guarantee permit approval?

Accepted Answer

No. The responsible authority determines whether a permit is issued. Additional review comments or documents may be required.

Question 16

How quickly can I receive my sealed plans?

Accepted Answer

Timing depends on the engineering scope, available documents, necessary revisions and professional review. We provide a project-specific estimate once the requirements are understood.

Question 17

Can you review a single drawing sheet?

Accepted Answer

Yes, single-sheet and limited-scope inquiries can be assessed. The professional may still need to review supporting drawings, calculations or existing conditions to accept responsibility for the work.

Question 18

Can you help with a project that was previously stamped by another engineer?

Accepted Answer

We can assess the situation. Depending on the applicable rules, the original professional may need to make the revisions, or another professional may need to undertake an appropriately authorized review or new design responsibility.

Question 19

What if I don't know whether I need structural or civil engineering?

Accepted Answer

Send the written permit requirement and project description. We can help identify the relevant discipline and proposed services.

Question 20

Do you offer services in all 50 states?

Accepted Answer

We accept inquiries nationally. Engineering service availability is conditional on appropriate licensure, qualified professionals, applicable legal requirements and acceptance of the specific project.
