Starting at
$350
05

Permit-Ready Check

A design-production review for obvious drafting, coordination, grading, labeling, and plan-completeness issues. This does not constitute permitting-authority approval.

Starting at
$300

Priority Design Retainer

Starting at $1,500/week

Reserve an agreed block of weekly Civil 3D and civil-design production time for priority scheduling, direct access, file sharing, redlines, CAD production, grading revisions, quantity updates, sections, profiles, surfaces, and design-development support.

The weekly rate corresponds to an agreed number of reserved hours. Additional hours are billed separately. Custom monthly retainers are available.

Express Delivery

Starting at +$500

Or approximately 25%–30% of the project fee, whichever is greater. A 24- to 48-hour delivery window may be available for qualifying projects.

Timing begins only after the scope is approved, required files and information are complete, payment or deposit requirements are satisfied, and LONESTAR confirms eligibility.

Large developments, multiple buildings, complex stormwater or utilities, major roadways, subdivisions, incomplete surveys, extensive permitting research, multiple alternatives, significant revisions, and out-of-scope services require a custom schedule. Expedited delivery is not an unconditional guarantee.

Qualified to support public-sector teams.

Whether supporting public agencies or prime consultants, Lonestar's certifications help meet supplier diversity objectives.

From South Florida to the Caribbean

Experience includes grading, earthwork, utility, and infrastructure work throughout the Caribbean, including luxury resort development in Grand Cayman and remote utility and water-treatment facilities where accuracy and coordination were critical.
