About Us – JJ Drafting

 Designed with Clarity. So You Can Build with Confidence.

Bringing your dream home to life should be an adventure, not a puzzle.

At JJ Drafting, we’re more than just a drafting service; we are your expert partners in navigating the complex world of home design and council approvals. Since 2000, we’ve been helping Sydney homeowners transform their ideas into practical, liveable, and fully-approved realities.

We know that modern living means making the most of your space. We also know that the NSW planning system can be confusing and stressful. That’s where we excel. We combine creative, intelligent design with the deep technical expertise to get your project across the line, whether it’s a brand new build or legalising a structure built years ago.

Our Approach: Expertise Meets Practicality

The path to building is filled with challenges. Our mission is to solve them for you. We are a solutions-focused design firm that balances two key principles:

1. Creative & Liveable Design: Your home needs to work for you. We specialise in creating intelligent designs that feel intuitive, maximise space, and create dedicated zones for your family to bond and for you to unwind.
2. Unmatched Technical Expertise: A beautiful design is useless if it can’t be approved. We are experts in the NSW planning system. We manage the entire approval process for you, from navigating the complexities of a Development Application (DA) to meeting the strict “black and white” rules of a Complying Development Certificate (CDC).

We are also Sydney’s specialists in “problem-solving” drafting. We have a proven track record of helping homeowners legalise unauthorised or illegal building works by preparing professional as-built drawings and managing the retrospective approval process.

 Meet the Founder 

Hi, I’m Jitka Jankovec, Founder and Principal Designer at JJ Drafting.

With over 35 years of hands-on experience in building design and drafting, I’ve seen it all. I founded JJ Drafting with a simple mission: to make the design and approval process clearer, less stressful, and more focused on the client’s goals.

My passion is in the details—finding that extra square meter you didn’t know you had, solving a difficult site challenge, or demystifying a tricky council requirement. I’m not just a designer; I’m a technical expert and a problem-solver.

I personally oversee every project to ensure it meets our high standards and, more importantly, your expectations. When you work with us, you’re working directly with a team that is 100% dedicated to your success. About Us – JJ Drafting
