Ed O'Connor Home Designs is a subsidiary of O'Connor CAD Services. O'Connor CAD Services started out in 1985 to provide drafting and design services to engineers and architects in the Philadelphia area. Many of our early projects involved HVAC, plumbing and electrical drafting. Our client base grew to New Jersey and Delaware providing drafting and design services to Architectural/Engineering compa
nies for commercial projects and to Contractors for custom home designs. With increased demand for residential design services, OCS moved our base of operations to Delaware while maintaining our clientele in Pennsylvania. With the advances of the Internet, we were anxious to develop new design tools that would permit us to assist property owners, contractors, engineers and architects with their design and drafting needs
