SiteBuildHub Draft

Simple Online Drawing Software for Contractors

Draw site plans, floor plans, fence layouts, deck sketches, landscape plans, and takeoff drawings in your browser — no CAD download required.

What SiteBuildHub Draft is

Draft is a 2D drawing workspace built around the drawings contracting businesses actually produce. You get a scaled sheet with a grid, simple shape tools that snap to it, dimension lines that read in feet and inches, labels, a title block, and clean exports. Nothing to install, nothing to configure, and no drafting background needed.

It replaces the napkin sketch, the photo of graph paper, and the CAD seat that never got used — the gap between "no drawing" and "professional document set."

Why it's easier than complex CAD

CAD suites are built for producing engineering document sets, and their complexity reflects that: command lines, layer standards, viewport scales, training courses. Draft is built for one job — clear, scaled, dimensioned contractor drawings — so the whole tool fits in a single toolbar you can learn in one sitting.

The scale is fixed and honest, the shapes snap to the grid, and the measurements calculate themselves. The result isn't a lesser CAD; it's a faster path to the drawing you needed today.

Frequently asked questions

What is SiteBuildHub Draft?

A browser-based drawing workspace for contractors. It covers the everyday job drawings — site plans, layouts, and takeoff sketches — with a scaled grid, real measurements, templates, and client-ready exports.

Do I need to install anything?

No. Draft runs entirely in your web browser. There is no download, no license key, and no update cycle.

Is it hard to learn?

No. The toolbar has eight tools and they work the way you'd guess: pick a tool, drag on the canvas. Most contractors produce their first usable drawing in ten to fifteen minutes.

How do exports work?

PNG export downloads a high-resolution image of your sheet. PDF export opens a clean print view where you choose 'Save as PDF' — title block, border, and disclaimer included.

Is it a CAD replacement?

No, and it doesn't try to be. Draft deliberately skips CAD complexity to make everyday contractor drawings fast. For engineered or stamped drawings, work with licensed professionals.

What does it cost?

Free to start with 3 saved drawings and PNG export. Starter is $19/month for unlimited drawings and PDF export. Pro ($49) adds branded PDFs and takeoff tools; Business ($99) adds team features.
