Pennsylvania Site Plans Guaranteed within 24 hours

Q: Do I need a site plan for a permit in Pennsylvania?

Yes — most Pennsylvania jurisdictions require a site plan for building permits, demolition permits, deck permits, fence permits, accessory structure permits, swimming pool permits, and room additions. Under 34 Pa. Code § 403.42a, construction documents submitted with any permit application must include a site plan drawn to scale, showing structure locations, distances from lot lines, and established street grades. In Philadelphia, the Department of Licenses & Inspections (L&I) typically requires a Zoning Permit before a Building Permit, and a scaled site plan is part of that submission; Pittsburgh's Department of Permits, Licenses, and Inspections (PLI) has similar requirements processed through the OneStopPGH portal. Our site plans are not a survey, nor are they intended to replace one — they are professionally drafted scaled drawings designed to meet permit submission requirements across Pennsylvania municipalities.

Q: What is the difference between a site plan and a survey?

A site plan is a scaled drawing used for permit applications and project planning — it is not a land survey and is not intended to replace one. MySitePlan's drawings are produced by Drafterra Certified drafters using GIS lot-line data and satellite imagery to show property boundaries, existing structures, proposed work, and required dimensions. A licensed survey, by contrast, is a legally certified document prepared by a registered land surveyor who physically measures your property. Most Pennsylvania building permit applications require a site plan, not a full survey — but if your municipality specifically requires a licensed survey, we will let you know, and we can refer you to the appropriate professionals. Our site plans are not a survey, nor are they intended to replace one.

Q: How quickly can I get a site plan in Pennsylvania?

Every Pennsylvania order is delivered within 24 hours, guaranteed — no site visit required and no scheduling delays. Simply place your order online with your property address and project details, and our Drafterra Certified drafters will produce your plan remotely using GIS data and satellite imagery. This 24-hour turnaround is our standard for every order, whether you're in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Lancaster, Erie, or a small rural township — no rush fee required. If your building department requests any changes to your plan after submission, we handle revisions promptly to keep your project moving forward.

Q: How much does a site plan cost in Pennsylvania?

Pennsylvania site plans start at $99 with flat-rate pricing and no hidden fees — far less than the cost of hiring a local surveyor or drafter. Our Basic Plot Plan ($99) includes property lines, the primary structure roofline, lot dimensions, a north arrow, and scale. The Medium Site Plan ($119) is our most popular option for Pennsylvania building permits, fencing permits, deck permits, and HOA submissions — it adds measurements between features, trees, driveways, and accessory structures. If your project requires more detail, the Detailed Site Plan ($159) adds landscaping, paths, and utility/septic information; the Commercial Detailed plan is $179; and our Commercial "The Works" package at $279 adds legal setbacks, topography, impervious surface calculations, a DWG file, and a vicinity map. There are no travel fees, no scheduling costs, and no surprises.

Q: What types of site plans are available for Pennsylvania projects?

MySitePlan offers five plan tiers to match the requirements of any Pennsylvania permit or project. The Basic Plot Plan ($99) covers property lines, roofline, lot dimensions, north arrow, and scale — a solid starting point for simple project planning. The Medium Site Plan ($119, most popular) adds measurements between features, trees, driveway, accessory structures, and swimming pool — the right choice for most Pennsylvania building permits, deck permits, fence permits, shed permits, and HOA submissions. The Detailed Site Plan ($159) adds paths, shrubs, lawn, landscaping, and septic/utility locations for residential projects requiring maximum detail. The Commercial Detailed ($179) is built for commercial properties and includes parking, ingress/egress, and dumpster areas. The Commercial "The Works" ($279) goes further with legal setbacks, topography, impervious surface calculations, a DWG file, and a vicinity map — well-suited for larger development applications and subdivision reviews in counties like Allegheny, Philadelphia, and Lancaster.

Q: Will my site plan be accepted by Philadelphia L&I or Pittsburgh PLI?

Yes — MySitePlan has delivered over 80,000 site plans nationwide, and our drawings are routinely accepted by Pennsylvania building departments including Philadelphia's Department of Licenses & Inspections and Pittsburgh's Department of Permits, Licenses, and Inspections. Our plans are drafted to scale and include all standard elements required by Pennsylvania permit offices: property boundaries, existing and proposed structure locations, distances from lot lines, north arrow, and project-specific details. Philadelphia applicants should be aware that a Zoning Permit is typically required before a Building Permit, and our Medium Site Plan ($119) is designed to support both submissions. Pittsburgh applicants submitting through the OneStopPGH portal will find our plans include the scaled layout and structure dimensions needed for Zoning and Development Review. If a specific department requests a revision, we take care of it.

Q: What information do I need to provide to get my Pennsylvania site plan?

All you need to get started is your property address and a description of your project. Our Drafterra Certified drafters use that information along with GIS lot-line data and satellite imagery to draft your plan remotely — no site visit, no appointment, and no waiting. If you have an existing survey or plat document, sharing it can help improve accuracy, but it is not required. Photos of the property, a sketch of the proposed project, and any specific dimensions or setback information you already have are also helpful. The more detail you provide at the time of order, the better we can tailor your plan to your specific Pennsylvania municipality's requirements.

Q: Do I need a site plan for a deck, fence, or shed permit in Pennsylvania?

Yes — decks, fences, and accessory structures are among the most common permit triggers in Pennsylvania, and nearly all municipalities require a site plan as part of the application. Deck permits are typically required when a deck is attached to the home, exceeds 30 inches in height, or covers more than 200 square feet; the site plan must show the deck's location, dimensions, and distances from property lines. Fence permits depend on height: fences between 30 inches and 6 feet generally require an administrative zoning review, while fences over 6 feet require a full building permit — both require a site plan. For sheds and garages, permit thresholds vary widely: Pittsburgh and Harrisburg require permits for accessory structures over 200 square feet, while Erie requires a permit for sheds over 100 square feet. Our Medium Site Plan ($119) is the right choice for all of these projects and is accepted across Pennsylvania jurisdictions including Allentown, Reading, Scranton, and Lancaster.

Q: Can I use a MySitePlan site plan for HOA approval in Pennsylvania?

Yes — MySitePlan site plans are widely used for HOA architectural review submissions throughout Pennsylvania. Many Pennsylvania HOAs require a scaled site plan showing the proposed structure's location, dimensions, and distances from property lines before approving projects like fences, decks, pergolas, sheds, patios, and swimming pools. In many municipalities, HOA approval letters must also be submitted alongside the building permit application, meaning you may need your site plan for both processes simultaneously. Our Medium Site Plan ($119) includes all the elements HOA review boards typically look for and is formatted to support both permit and HOA submissions in one order. Pennsylvania communities from the Philadelphia suburbs to Allegheny County townships commonly require this level of detail for any exterior improvement project.

Q: Does Pennsylvania's UCC affect what my site plan needs to show?

Yes — Pennsylvania's Uniform Construction Code (UCC), administered by the PA Department of Labor & Industry under 34 Pa. Code § 403.42a, sets the baseline requirement that site plans be drawn to scale and include structure locations, distances from lot lines, street grades, and demolition details where applicable. However, because UCC enforcement is decentralized across Pennsylvania's 2,562 municipalities — each of which has opted in or out of local administration — specific submission requirements can vary significantly from one township or borough to the next. In opt-in municipalities, a certified local code official reviews your plan; in opt-out municipalities, residential projects go through a state-approved third-party agency, while commercial projects fall under L&I directly. Paper submissions to the state require four copies at a scale no less than 1"=20'. Our Drafterra Certified drafters are familiar with these requirements and produce plans that meet the scaled, documented standards expected under the UCC, whether you're in Harrisburg, Scranton, or a small rural township in the Pocono region.

Pennsylvania's Building Permit Landscape

Last reviewed: April 2026

Pennsylvania's statewide building code — the Uniform Construction Code (UCC), established under Act 45 of 1999 — requires a site plan as part of virtually every construction permit application. Under 34 Pa. Code § 403.42a, submitted site plans must be drawn to scale, showing structure locations, lot-line distances, street grades, and demolition details where applicable. For paper submissions, four copies at a scale of no less than 1"=20' are required.

What makes Pennsylvania unique is its decentralized enforcement model. Each of the state's 2,562 municipalities has chosen to either administer the UCC locally ("opt in") or defer to certified third-party agencies for residential projects and the PA Department of Labor & Industry for commercial work ("opt out"). This means site plan requirements can vary significantly from one township to the next.

Major cities each have their own permitting portals and processes. In Philadelphia, the Department of Licenses & Inspections typically requires a Zoning Permit before a Building Permit. In Pittsburgh, permits flow through the OneStopPGH portal. Harrisburg routes permits through its Bureau of Codes, and Erie, Scranton, Reading, Lancaster, and Allentown each carry their own local thresholds and submission requirements.

Common Pennsylvania Projects That Require a Site Plan

Pennsylvania homeowners and contractors need site plans across a wide range of projects. Here are the most common triggers:

Room additions — attached additions require a site plan showing the proposed footprint, lot lines, and setback distances.
Fence permits — fences between 30 inches and 6 feet require administrative zoning review; over 6 feet require a full building permit with a site plan.
Accessory structure permits — sheds and garages trigger permit requirements at 200 sq ft in Pittsburgh and Harrisburg, and as low as 100 sq ft in Erie.
Swimming pool permits — in-ground and above-ground pools over a minimum size require a site plan showing setbacks from property lines and structures.
Deck permits — decks attached to the home, over 30 inches high, or larger than 200 sq ft typically require a permit; a site plan showing the deck footprint and setbacks is standard.
Demolition permits — the site plan must indicate what is being demolished and what structures will remain on the lot.
Sign permits — commercial and residential sign installations commonly require a site plan showing placement relative to property lines.
Short-term rental licensing — some Pennsylvania municipalities require a site plan as part of short-term rental permit applications.
Covered patio and landscape permits — covered structures and hardscape additions in many municipalities require zoning review supported by a site plan.
Driveway permits — new or expanded driveways often require a site plan showing the driveway footprint, setbacks, and impervious surface impact.
HOA architectural review submissions — Pennsylvania HOAs commonly require a site plan showing proposed dimensions and distances from property lines for fences, decks, pergolas, and sheds.
Commercial parking and site improvements — commercial projects require site plans detailing parking spaces, ingress/egress, and impervious surfaces.

Pennsylvania's Unique Permitting Environment

Pennsylvania's opt-in/opt-out municipal model means there is no single statewide submission process — and requirements can shift dramatically across county lines. For example, Philadelphia mandates a Zoning Permit before a Building Permit for most projects, and requires a combination permit for new 1–2 family residential construction. Pittsburgh's Zoning and Development Review Division requires detailed site plans for subdivision applications, all processed through the OneStopPGH portal.

Seasonal and regional conditions also affect permit content. Deck footings across Pennsylvania must extend below the frost line — ranging from 36 inches in southeastern PA to 42 inches or more in the northern tier and Pocono region — and your site plan may need to reflect this. The UCC is also transitioning to the 2021 International Building Code edition as of January 1, 2026, meaning submission standards may shift for projects permitted in the new cycle. If your project involves land disturbance, NPDES permits and erosion/sedimentation control plans may also be required. You can verify current requirements for your municipality through pa.gov.
