1. 3D Models and Visualisation
One of the standout features of CAD drawing with PlansXpress is its 3D modelling capabilities.

Roofing can be a pain for builders in CAD drawing. PlansXpress simplifies this with its advanced roof drawing tools. Whether you’re dealing with Apex, Valley, Mansard, or Gambrel roofs, the software handles it all. You can easily tweak roof designs—changing pitches, altering soffit widths, or switching styles—without having to start from scratch. This is a massive time-saver, especially when clients change their minds mid-project.
3. Integrated Estimation with EstimatorXpress
Worried about keeping projects within budget? PlansXpress integrates seamlessly with EstimatorXpress, allowing you to estimate costs accurately as you design. This integration is invaluable, helping you avoid costly mistakes and ensuring that your quotes are both competitive and profitable.
