Fee Information

My Fee
My fee is based on 1) square footage of available space, 2) number of levels, 3) complexity of the plan, and 4) the amount of detail the client wants included on the plan.
There is no charge for creating an initial floor plan. Once the floor plan has been approved, the client will receive a firm detailed quote based on their particular needs. Because of the specific wants and needs of each client, it is impossible to quote a standard flat fee.
That said, my minimum charge for a small (single level) bedroom size layout starts around $850.00 and up. Once the questionnaire has been filled out and submitted, I can then give a perspective client a reasonability close estimate of the final cost.
I would prefer clients pay using the PayPal "Buy Now" button below. Most credit cards are accepted and clients do not need a PayPal account to use the service.
If clients need other payment options, they can send me an email through the Contact Me page and I will get in touch with them with additional options.
Included with all Track Plan Designs:
Design Time:
The time involved to complete a project is dependent on the number of projects already booked. Under normal circumstances the wait time will be approximately five to seven weeks. with most getting done earlier. Some large multi-level plans could take upwards of eight weeks to complete. The actual design time varies depending on 1) the overall size of the project, 2) the amount of research needed to design the track plan, and 3) the number revisions made to the plan.
AnyRail CAD Software
Because of the nominal cost and very accurate measuring tool built-in to AnyRail, I highly recommend my clients purchase a registered copy. Those clients who do, can then receive for a copy of the track plan file. By using AnyRail's measuring tool, in combination with the architects ruler [mentioned above], clients should be able to precisely establish bench work widths, along with accurately placing turnouts and flex-track on their bench work.
One to One Printing Service
If the client would like to have a full size print of the track plan, they can contact LayoutPrinting.com (731) 337-2272
Railroad Back Drops
If the client would like to install high quality photo backdrops, I highly recommend RailroadBackdrops.com (731) 337-2272

- Using an architects ruler, clients can accurately measure turnout & track locations.
- A "List of Track Materials", i.e., track inventory is included on the plan.
