Not sure in FL, but in NY as a home owner you can do your own plumbing & elec, you just sign a form, if elec you need a UL cert, $50.

As far as building kitchen etc you may not need a permit it's not structural, nor does it extend your building foot print, but you do need to ask if they say, then follow up in writing to confirm & memorialize their position.

You may not need stamped arch drawing either, again ask.

Also you can use a draftsmen to draw a plan and get it stamped for a lot less if it is needed at all.
