Why Rebuild in Altadena?

Altadena offers a unique blend of historic charm, natural beauty, and strong community spirit. Rebuilding in place means preserving your land, avoiding today’s inflated housing market, and creating a custom home that reflects your family's current needs.

Our New Home Rebuild Process in Altadena

​

1. Initial Consultation & Site Evaluation

We begin with an on-site assessment of your property, including fire damage evaluation (if applicable), zoning review, and a discussion of your vision, goals, and budget. We’ll also review relevant city and county rebuild incentives or expedited permitting policies. For homeowners concerned about property taxes after rebuilding, we’ll explain what the 10% guideline means and how it applies to Altadena rebuilds.

​

2. Architectural Design + Engineering

Our in-house team develops complete architectural drawings, site plans, and structural engineering tailored to Altadena’s regulations, including:

• Hillside construction rules

• High fire severity zone compliance

• Methane mitigation (if applicable)

• Title 24 energy efficiency

• Low Impact Development (LID)

You’ll receive up to three design revisions, along with 3D renderings and material recommendations.

​

3. Permit Processing

We handle all plan submittals and corrections with the Los Angeles County Building & Safety Department, as well as coordination with Public Works, Health Department (if septic), and Fire Authority approvals.

4. Demolition & Site Prep

If fire damage requires demolition, we handle safe removal and clearance. We then perform:

• Grading and excavation

• Soil compaction

• Foundation survey and pour

• Methane barrier installation (if triggered by soil disturbance)

​

5. Construction Phase

With permits secured, we begin the vertical construction of your new home using fire-safe, energy-efficient, and structurally sound materials:

• Framing with fire-rated lumber, structural steel, or masonry block construction, depending on design and fire zone requirements

• High-performance insulation for optimal thermal regulation and energy savings

• Cool roofing systems with Class A fire ratings and reflective, weather-resistant materials

• Energy-efficient windows and doors that meet or exceed California Title 24 standards

• Plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems installed by licensed professionals

• Fire-resistant exterior siding such as fiber cement, stucco, or masonry veneer

• Class A roofing materials to maximize durability and fire protection

We provide weekly progress updates, real-time photo documentation, and digital project tracking to keep you fully informed throughout the construction process.

​

6. Finishes & Inspections

We finish your home with premium interior selections: flooring, cabinetry, tile, lighting, and fixtures. Final inspections are coordinated to obtain your Certificate of Occupancy (CofO) from the County of Los Angeles.
