Your home, built from the ground up.
Custom luxury homes, single-family residences, teardown-and-rebuilds, and multi-generational estates across Los Angeles — design, permits, and construction managed by one team, seamlessly and within budget.
One team from first drawing to move-in.
Building a new home means design, engineering, permits, and construction all have to agree with each other. When they live in separate offices, the gaps become your problem — redesigns, delays, and budgets that move.
We operate as a full-service design-build firm: our team develops the architectural plans and 3D renderings, handles every permit application, city submission, and engineering requirement, and then builds what it drew.
A dedicated project manager oversees your site through every phase, with strict quality control and regular communication — the process that has carried us through 3,000+ projects since 1996.
Typical timeline by scope.
Estimated ranges for planning. Your schedule is confirmed after your free in-home design session.
| Project type | Design & permits | Construction | Total estimate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single-family residence | 4–8 months | 10–14 months | 14–22 months |
| Custom luxury home | 6–10 months | 12–16 months | 18–26 months |
| Teardown & rebuild | 5–9 months | 10–14 months | 15–23 months |
| Two-story / estate build | 6–12 months | 12–18 months | 18–30 months |
Timelines depend heavily on the speed of city permit approvals and the complexity of your design. We map your permitting path during the free design session, before you commit.
For owners building the long-term house.
A new build is the right tool when no existing house fits: the lot you love, the family you have, the way you actually live.
These are the builds we take on most across LA, Ventura County, and the West Valley.
Craft you can hold us to.
Design-build, one roof
Architects, designers, and builders on one team — from 3D renderings and permits to the final walkthrough, with no handoffs and no finger-pointing.
Free 3D design session
A free in-home design session with 3D renderings — a $3,000–$5,000 value when you build with us — so you see the space before a wall moves.
One accountable team
A 25-person team led by the same family since 1996 — with a dedicated project manager, regular updates, and a clean, organized site.
Everything, handled.
Custom design & 3D plans
Architectural plans and photoreal 3D renderings, refined with you until every detail of layout and finish is right.
Permits & compliance
Permit applications, city submissions, and engineering requirements — the whole compliance process, handled for you.
Full-service turnkey build
Foundation to finishing touches with our own crews and vetted trades, under a dedicated project manager.
Systems & efficiency
Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and energy-efficient options — including sustainable, green building practices.
Planning a bigger project? Home Builder often pairs with ADU Construction, Room Additions, or Kitchen Remodeling — we can scope it all together.
Problems we solve
- Designs that come back far over budget after months of drawing
- Permits and city submissions stalling projects for seasons
- Split contracts where the architect and builder blame each other
- Schedules that drift with no one accountable end to end
Common triggers
- You found the lot — or the teardown — in the neighborhood you want
- The family outgrew every house on the market
- You want aging parents or adult children close, with their own space
- A previous build went badly and you want one accountable team
