Docsroom

Templates / Architects and surveyors

Project briefs, planning papers and site access, from one link.

A job waits on the ownership papers, the old drawings and a day when someone can let the surveyor in. Docsroom gives each person their own link and reminds whoever has not sent theirs.

Why it helps

What changes for you

A link for every owner and consultant

Homeowners, neighbours, engineers and builders each open their own link on a phone, with no account and no password.

Drawings and certificates kept per job

Title plans, old drawings, insurance certificates and site photos arrive against the job, each with the day it came in.

Reminders while the programme waits

Docsroom chases whoever has not replied until each one is in, so a consultant or a neighbour does not hold up a submission.

Not quite you?

Type your kind of work. If we have its kit, it opens straight away. If not, we write one with AI or show the closest we have.
