About Us
Cold Noses Drafting was founded in order to provide accurate, timely and
cost-effective drawings to home-owners who have plans to renovate their
home or other property.
Customer service is my number one priority!
Melissa, owner of Cold Noses Drafting, has a passion for excellence. Trained
in Engineering Design & Drafting Technology at SAIT, Melissa spent the first
few years of her career designing and engineering wood floor (I-joist) and
roof (truss) systems. With an excellent ability to visualize in 3 dimensions,
Melissa then moved into Estimating and Construction Drafting for renovations
rather than new construction. Recently, when she noticed a distinct lack of
value-priced drafting services, and especially services aimed towards homeowners
who did not want to hire a full-service contractor, Melissa decided to launch
Cold Noses Drafting.
Where does the name “Cold Noses Drafting” come from? Simply put, a lifetime
love for animals and a ‘collection’ of cold nosed creatures (4 cats and a dog)
in my household, were inspiration for the name. Rest assured that you will never
be given the COLD shoulder, or see a stuck-up NOSE in your direction. My focus is
on providing you with excellent quality design, down-to-earth pricing, and paws-down,
tail-waggingly great service.
A portion of profits are donated to the Calgary Humane Society.
