A qualified designer signs. Gablebird does the drawing.
In Ontario, drawings for a client’s house must be signed by a BCIN-qualified designer, an architect or an engineer. Gablebird puts the signer’s name, BCIN and responsibility statement on every sheet. No one on staff? Invite your designer to your company workspace to review and sign the set.
