Subbies love sketches

having any type of plan for your work is ALWAYS better than having no plan at all

Using Building Sketches for your Project

1. You don’t need to be da Vinci

A SIMPLE SKETCH IS GOOD ENOUGH
A picture tells a thousand words and this couldn’t be more true than when trying to explain your building project to your Subbie. Just a simple drawing will help your work run more smoothly.

2. Try to include some measurements

THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAIL
Making things up as you go along is a disaster when it comes to building work. Giving your Subbie some measurements to work to will help your job run more smoothly and more quickly.

3. The more basic the better

IF IT LOOKS LIKE A KID DREW IT, THEN IT’S PERFECT
Bamboozling a sub-contractor with overly technical drawings will only confuse the process. Simple drawings that are easy to understand are what works best!
