Portfolio
Projects we take on
The kind of remodels and new builds we take on across Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, and Irvine — from full-gut remodels to ground-up residential.
Scope
What we build
Our work spans premium residential remodels, full new construction, and select commercial — always with documented scopes and no-surprise change-order discipline.
Ground-up residential
Custom homes from permitted drawings to final certificate of occupancy across Orange County's coastal cities.
ADU design-build
Accessory dwelling units designed for OC zoning realities: setbacks, FAR limits, and coastal overlay requirements.
Kitchen & bath upgrades
Premium material specification, custom cabinetry, and plumbing modernization with realistic timeline commitments.
Structural upgrades
Seismic bracing, shear wall additions, and foundation work — permitted, engineered, and documented.
Select commercial
Flagship office, retail, and hospitality builds for OC owners who want the same rigor applied to residential projects.
Process
Engineer-led from first call to final inspection
Every project starts with a scoped feasibility conversation, not a sales pitch. We document assumptions, surface permit complexity early, and keep change orders bounded by the original scope agreement.
Feasibility review before any commitment — budget bands with visible assumptions, not vague ballparks
Permit-first scheduling: city timelines are baked in, not tacked on after contracts
Weekly field reports with photo documentation at every structural milestone
Change-order policy posted publicly: scope additions require written approval and price acknowledgment before work begins
Licensed, insured, and bonded — contractor credentials available on request
Questions
What clients ask before starting
What does a $500K remodel actually include in Newport Beach?
At that budget, expect a full kitchen and two-bath gut, new HVAC and electrical panel, and a significant structural or envelope upgrade — but not all four simultaneously without value engineering. We walk through a line-item breakdown in the first feasibility meeting so you can prioritize.
How long does permitting take in Laguna Beach or Newport Beach?
Typically 6–16 weeks depending on project type and whether coastal overlay review applies. We track current city review queues and flag early if your scope will require design commission sign-off.
Do you work with our architect, or do you provide design?
Both. We can partner with your architect on construction documents, or refer trusted OC residential architects for design-assist engagements where the build and design teams are aligned from day one.
What's your policy on change orders?
Change orders require written scope definition and a signed price acknowledgment before work proceeds. We don't run change orders to manage scope creep — we flag it in the feasibility phase.
Are your estimates binding?
All cost ranges provided during feasibility are non-binding illustrative estimates with visible assumptions. Binding pricing follows complete permitted drawings and a finalized scope of work.
