We read every request and reply about next steps for your property. Sending this commits you to nothing. How we use your details.

To send, add what you are interested in, your first name and a phone number or an email.

Whether the lot is in Lakewood or a neighbor such as Cerritos, Downey, Gardena or Whittier, a rebuild with us moves through the same stages. We assess the cleared lot, write the scope, bring in soils and structural engineering, draw the house, file for review and then build from the footings up. The reviewing agency, its fees and its inspection checklist can differ by city, and we plan around each one.

One sequence, stage by stage

The assessment fixes the property lines, the utility connections and whatever concrete survived. The written scope turns those findings into line items you can question before anything is signed. Engineering sets the foundation and frame, and the drawings go to plan check with the energy forms attached. On site, the order holds: footings, framing and roof, rough plumbing and electrical, insulation, wallboard, finishes. Each step waits for its inspection, and you get a written note when one stage closes and the next begins.

Rebuilt to today's code

The house is rebuilt to the code in force on the day the permit issues, which may differ from what the old house met, so the scope flags upgrades such as sprinklers, energy measures and a current electrical service. Where those additions change the cost against your insurance scope, the gap shows as its own line. Exterior details are chosen for bright sun and dry wind on an inland site, and ember resistant vents and tempered dual pane glass are offered as options. Jobs in Lomita follow this same order too.
