Los Angeles County
Building in Monrovia.
Monrovia runs from flat older neighbourhoods near the historic downtown up into the foothills, and it has a good deal of early-twentieth-century housing stock still in original condition.
It runs its own building division, and it has an established interest in the preservation of its older residential architecture.

What matters when you build here.
Older stock, original systems
A lot of the housing here has never had a full systems replacement. On a whole-home remodel, plan on the wiring and the supply plumbing being part of the scope even if that is not what brought you to the project.
Foothill lots
North of the flats the ground rises, bringing the same considerations as the other foothill cities: slope, drainage, access and fire hazard zone requirements.
No published project in Monrovia yet.
We build across California and the nearest published projects are a short drive away. Rather than show you someone else’s house and imply it is ours, here is everything we have documented.
What we build in Monrovia.
New construction
Custom homes built from the ground up on an empty or cleared lot.
Whole-home remodel
Reworking a whole house (structure, systems and finishes) rather than one room.
Fire rebuild
Ground-up reconstruction on a cleared lot, from debris and survey through final inspection.
ADU
Accessory dwelling units: detached, attached, or converted from space you already have.
Kitchen & bath
The two rooms with the most going on behind the walls, done properly.
Foundations & framing
The structure everything else depends on, including on difficult ground.
