If You Are Looking to Rebuild in Altadena
Genesis Builders helps displaced Altadena homeowners rebuild their homes in Altadena after the Eaton Fires. Many families who lost homes in Altadena are now staying in Avocado Heights in rentals, extended-stay lodging, or with relatives while they wait for a clear path back home. Our construction work is limited to Altadena, and our role is to help families currently living in places like Avocado Heights return to a newly rebuilt Altadena home.
For homeowners temporarily based near Avocado Heights, including areas around Avocado Heights Park, Don Julian Road, or nearby San Gabriel Valley communities, managing an Altadena rebuild from a distance can feel overwhelming. Genesis Builders provides a complete turnkey process so you do not have to coordinate separate architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, and contractors on your own.
Our team owns the full process for your Altadena rebuild, from planning through construction completion. We help review your insurance policy to identify what may be covered for rebuilding, introduce financing options through preferred lenders, provide pre-approved home plans to choose from, and manage the work under a fixed price and set schedule.
Genesis Builders also provides full-service construction management and a 2-10 year home warranty, giving Altadena homeowners a clear, organized path forward while they are temporarily living in Avocado Heights or another nearby community.
Built to Exceed Every Fire-Resistant Standard in California
Every home Genesis Builders builds in Altadena is designed to meet or exceed California’s strictest fire safety requirements. The Eaton Fires showed how quickly wind-driven embers can move through neighborhoods and how vulnerable homes can be when vents, openings, exterior materials, decks, fencing, and nearby structures are not addressed as a complete system.
For Altadena homeowners currently living in Avocado Heights, our fire-resistant rebuilding program is focused on the home you are returning to in Altadena. Our construction standards are built around the realities of the foothill environment and the lessons learned from recent wildfire loss.
- California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: Establishes wildfire protection standards for exterior walls, roofing, vents, eaves, windows, doors, and other building components in fire hazard areas.
- Altadena Community Standards District requirements: Guides neighborhood-specific design and development standards so rebuilt homes fit Altadena’s character while meeting applicable local requirements.
- Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards (RDS) Ordinance: Sets residential design criteria related to scale, massing, setbacks, site planning, and compatibility for homes in Los Angeles County communities such as Altadena.
- IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: Provides a more comprehensive wildfire resilience framework that addresses ember resistance, defensible space, attached structures, and home-hardening details beyond minimum code.
Building to code is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 CBC Chapter 7A only partially addresses or does not address important wildfire exposure areas such as 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, which can also help improve long-term insurability.
Choose From Pre-Approved Designs Built for Altadena

If you are currently staying in Avocado Heights after losing your Altadena home, these designs can help shorten the path from planning to construction in the community you are working to return to.
Our pre-approved Altadena home designs range from approximately 1,250 to 2,200 square feet, with 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2 to 3.5 bathrooms, and single-story or two-story layouts. Each plan is designed to support a clear permitting and construction process while preserving the architectural character that makes Altadena feel like home.
- SoCal Traditional: A timeless Southern California design with balanced proportions, familiar rooflines, and warm residential detailing.
- Mediterranean Revival: A classic style featuring stucco forms, arched elements, tile-inspired character, and a strong indoor-outdoor feel.
