The Fixer-Upper – Floor Plan

February 25, 2013 by Emily 6 Comments

Www.floorplanner.com is a nifty little tool that allows you to draw floor plans, to scale, of any type of building. You can even fill it with furniture, cars, rugs, add a roof, etc. It has a ton of options. It is free, but the functionality is limited. If you want more options, the annual fee is £10. I have no idea what that is in dollars…$12…$15? I think the free version is good enough for most uses.

The tool does take a little getting used to. I put in quite a few hours, and my drawings are still not accurate. I attribute that mostly to user error though. I did get better and faster as I went. It is nice that you can save your designs and come back to edit them later. That saved this girl from throwing the computer across the room the first night I tried to use it.

I just got the appraisal back, and it has a floor plan sketch in it. I forgot the bump-out on the main and second floor. I figured it out in the basement, but it was a lot of work to go fix the other floors. Laziness won.

There’s lots of floor space and lots of good work to be done! I’m excited for the challenge.

    Cool! Maybe I can try this when we buy our dream house (or fixer-upper as the case may be).

      I’d give it a go if I were you. There is a bit of a learning curve, but I think it would help visualize furniture placement and whole house color scheme.

      Ha, it has plenty of space for us, but I think it’s only 2000ish square feet. Our last house was 1700, so it’s one good size room bigger.

    Soooooo many bedrooms!!! Croikey, the whole family could move in! 😉

    What an awesome tool; I could totally see that being helpful when planning where to put furniture. It reminds me of Mom’s grid paper with her paper cut-out furniture – remember that?? Mom kicks it old school.

      I so thought the same thing about mom and her graph paper! It would be so helpful because you can put the dimensions of every object in the house: walls, windows, doors, couch, table, rugs, everything. It’s pretty neat.
