Your dedicated Plumbing Designer brings MEP-standard plumbing documentation at 50%+ lower cost than a US-based hire. They produce domestic water distribution plans, sanitary and storm drainage systems, pipe sizing calculations, and coordinated Revit MEP models under the direction of your licensed Engineer of Record. Timezone-aligned with US teams and pre-vetted for multi-discipline coordination workflows — they plug directly into your production pipeline using your tools and standards.
Plumbing design is a document-production discipline — plan layouts, schedules, sizing calculations, and coordination overlays all translate directly to remote workflows. Your designer works during your US business hours, participates in MEP coordination reviews, and integrates into your Revit or AutoCAD environment with minimal friction. LATAM timezone overlap (0–3 hours behind EST/CST) enables real-time communication when you need it.
Flexible arrangements to fit your capacity needs – dedicated individuals or scalable team setups.
Full-time (40h/week) or part-time (20h/week) Plumbing Designer embedded in your MEP team. Works in your Revit or AutoCAD environment, follows your firm's drawing standards, and delivers to your CD set schedule.

Common questions about hiring a Plumbing Designer through LatAm Scalers.
A Plumbing Designer produces domestic water distribution layouts (hot, cold, recirculation), sanitary and storm drainage plans, pipe sizing calculations, fixture unit schedules, plumbing fixture plans, riser diagrams, and equipment connection details. They work in coordination with mechanical and electrical disciplines under your licensed plumbing engineer or EOR.
Your licensed Engineer of Record retains full design authority and stamp responsibility. Your dedicated Plumbing Designer produces drawings and sizing documentation under your direction, requiring your PE/EOR review and sign-off before any permit submission.
Our specialists work in Revit MEP for coordinated 3D plumbing models, AutoCAD for 2D production drafting, and BIM 360 / Autodesk Construction Cloud for cloud-based project coordination. We align with your preferred platform and match your firm's layer standards and sheet templates.
Plumbing Designers coordinate with other MEP disciplines through federated Revit models or linked AutoCAD files, participating in clash detection reviews via Navisworks or ACC. They flag conflicts proactively and update drawings to reflect coordination resolutions from your team's review process.
US-based Plumbing Designers typically cost $65,000–$95,000/year fully loaded. LATAM-based equivalents through LatAm Scalers start at approximately $3,500/month — a savings of 50–65% with no compromise on technical output quality.
