Solar Design and Drafting

Solar Design and Drafting (SD&D) takes care of the design portion of all solar designs and drafting. We tailor our designs based on the different city and county codes and regulations, allowing for a smooth submittal the first time. SD&D appreciates the time sensitive nature of a solar installation, so we work quickly and efficiently to get the designs done. SD&D has grown over 200% in the past 2 years and we are expanding to be a green design center, moving from solely solar designs to electrical and water preservation. We are honest, accurate and strive for outstanding customer service. We excel in quick and precise designs and building relationships with our clients as well as your installation jurisdiction. We are committed to minimizing total installed cost by offering inexpensive submittal sets that reduce material and labor expenses.

SD&D needs to stay ahead of the green movement curve! We are excited to share our sustainability expertise by providing quality solar, water and electrical designs. The laws have changed drastically for residential and commercial permitting, mainly to help save money and energy. These cost effective laws are exciting and SD&D is a one of a kind green design center. Our goal is to continue to have the work/life balance of working hard, making a difference while keeping the office light and FUN.

SD&D is a very small and informal company. The 2 owners, husband and wife, are flexible and have only two concerns: efficiency and accuracy when it comes to our designs! We work hard and we play hard. We love our small town, Petaluma, in beautiful Sonoma County. The office is located right downtown on the charming Kentucky Street. Our designers can come and go as they please and we always offer a home office to avoid wasted time spent commuting. We train from the ground up BUT expect our employees to be eager to learn and hardworking. We are growing like crazy and our main (and only) qualifications are to be smart and hungry! The office environment is casual, fun and light, all while taking our work seriously by delivering quality designs and fantastic, positive energy! We are start-up, learning as we go and hoping to grow a team that sticks with us for the long haul! We are expanding from just solar design and drafting to a full-service, green energy design firm. We have started doing electrical designs as well, next on the list is plumbing/water preservation.
