Looking to build a Single-Family Residence or Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) in Orange County? The Ready Set Orange program provides pre-designed floorplans to streamline your construction process. However, the county requires a licensed professional engineer to review and certify your plans for permitting and compliance. That’s where we come in!
Our expert engineering services ensure that your selected Ready Set Orange model is properly adapted for your site conditions, meets structural requirements, and complies with all building codes.
