Our Process
From submittal to permit-ready plans
Four steps from inquiry to delivered plans, plus a built-in safety net. Here's exactly how working with us looks.
Submit your project
Send the required documents through our intake form or email them directly to cshearer@shearerfire.com. We confirm receipt within 1 business day.

Preferred file format: .CAD — We also accept high-resolution .PDF files. Hand-drawn plans may require additional drafting time.
Our quote
After reviewing your documents, you get a fixed quote and contract. Typically same day or next business day. The quote covers the full submittal package: design plans, hydraulic calculations, product data sheets, AHJ documentation, and one revision. No hidden fees, no hourly billing. You know the exact cost before committing.
The full design submittal
Plans, hydraulic calculations, and all AHJ submittal documents — typically 3-7 business days from contract signature. Every plan is reviewed by our lead designer before delivery.
Your submittal package includes:
- Fire sprinkler design plans with system riser detail
- Hydraulic calculations
- Product data sheets
- Supporting AHJ documentation
Permit-ready handoff
Stamped, finalized plans delivered and ready to submit to your AHJ. We're available for follow-up questions during the permitting process. If your AHJ has questions about the design, we handle the response directly.
Revision (if needed)
One revision included if your AHJ requests changes. Typical turnaround: 3 business days. Additional revisions beyond the first are available at $80 per revision.
