If You Are Looking to Rebuild in Altadena
Genesis Builders helps Altadena homeowners who are currently living in San Dimas plan and complete their return to Altadena after the Eaton Fires. Many families who lost homes in Altadena relocated temporarily to San Dimas, including rentals, extended-stay hotels, and homes with relatives near areas such as downtown San Dimas, Via Verde, Bonita Unified schools, and the 210 and 57 freeway corridors. San Dimas is where many families are staying right now. Altadena is where Genesis Builders rebuilds.
Our construction work is focused exclusively on rebuilding homes in Altadena. For displaced homeowners living in San Dimas, we provide a complete turnkey path back to your Altadena property, with one trusted team managing the process from early planning through final construction.
Rebuilding after a disaster can involve architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, lenders, insurance representatives, and contractors. Genesis Builders brings those moving parts into one coordinated program, helping reduce delays, confusion, and duplicate work. You work with a single team that understands the Altadena rebuild process and manages the project with clear accountability.
Our pre-approved home designs provide a meaningful head start for Altadena homeowners. Instead of beginning with a blank page, you can choose from plans already designed and engineered for faster development in Altadena. Genesis Builders also offers financing options through preferred lenders, support reviewing your insurance policy to understand what may be covered for rebuilding, fixed pricing, a set schedule, full-service construction management, and a 2-10 year home warranty.
San Dimas may be where your family is living during this season. Our goal is to help you rebuild safely, clearly, and confidently on your Altadena property.
Built to Exceed Every Fire-Resistant Standard in California
Every home Genesis Builders constructs in Altadena is built to meet or exceed California’s strictest fire safety requirements. For Altadena families currently living in San Dimas after the Eaton Fires, this level of protection is central to returning home with greater confidence.
The Eaton Fires showed how destructive ember intrusion can be, especially when wind-driven embers enter attic vents, gaps, eaves, decks, fences, or vulnerable exterior assemblies. Our Altadena rebuild program is designed around hardening the entire home against wildfire exposure, with attention to the details that matter during real fire conditions.
- California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: Establishes wildfire-resistant construction standards for homes in designated fire hazard areas, including requirements for vents, roofing, exterior walls, eaves, windows, and other vulnerable building components.
- Altadena Community Standards District requirements: Provides local design and development standards that help ensure rebuilt homes fit Altadena’s neighborhoods, streetscapes, and community character.
- Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards (RDS) Ordinance: Sets residential design expectations for scale, massing, setbacks, and neighborhood compatibility in Los Angeles County communities such as Altadena.
- IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: Provides a comprehensive, science-based wildfire resilience standard that addresses home hardening, defensible space, ember resistance, and surrounding property conditions.
Building to code is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 CBC Chapter 7A addresses many important wildfire safety issues, yet it only partially addresses or does not fully address several high-risk areas, including fences, retaining walls, exterior glass, decks, and ADUs. Genesis Builders closes those gaps by building Altadena homes to the full IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home standard.
This approach supports stronger wildfire performance and may help improve insurability for homeowners returning to Altadena from temporary housing in San Dimas. Genesis Builders does not construct homes in San Dimas. Our fire-resistant building program is for Altadena properties being rebuilt after the Eaton Fires.
Choose From Pre-Approved Designs Built for Altadena
Genesis Builders offers a curated collection of homes already designed, engineered, and approved for fast-tracked development in Altadena. These plans are intended for displaced Altadena homeowners who may currently be living in San Dimas while they prepare to rebuild on their original Altadena property.
Our pre-approved designs range from approximately 1,250 to 2,200 square feet, with 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2 to 3.5 bathrooms, and both single-story and two-story options. Each plan is developed with Altadena’s permitting, design, and wildfire resilience requirements in mind.
- SoCal Traditional: A familiar Southern California home style with balanced proportions, approachable curb appeal, and flexible interior layouts for modern family living.
- Mediterranean Revival: A warm architectural style with stucco exterior character, refined rooflines, and design details inspired by classic California homes.
- Foothill Craftsman: A style suited to Altadena’s foothill setting, with grounded forms, welcoming entries, and craftsman-inspired detailing.
- California Bungalow: A compact, comfortable, and efficient home style with timeless neighborhood character and practical living spaces.
Homeowners can personalize interior finishes and select optional ADU configurations where appropriate for the Altadena lot and applicable requirements. Pricing is guaranteed, which helps families living temporarily in San Dimas make informed decisions about their Altadena rebuild without uncertainty around construction costs.
These designs are built for Altadena only. San Dimas is the temporary home base for many displaced families, while Genesis Builders’ design, permitting, and construction program is focused on helping them return to Altadena.
