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 currently staying in Bell Gardens, whether in rentals, extended-stay hotels, or with relatives while they wait for the path home to become clear. Bell Gardens may be where daily life is happening right now, near schools, parks, work routes, and family support, but the rebuild we provide is for your Altadena property.
Genesis Builders builds homes only in Altadena. For homeowners temporarily living in Bell Gardens, we provide a complete turnkey rebuilding solution designed to help you return to Altadena with fewer moving parts, fewer handoffs, and one accountable team managing the process.
Instead of coordinating architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, and contractors separately, you work with Genesis Builders as your single trusted rebuilding partner. Our team manages the process from planning through construction, with pre-approved home designs that give your Altadena rebuild a meaningful head start.
Our turnkey rebuilding program includes financing options available through preferred lenders, assistance reviewing your insurance policy to understand what may be covered for rebuilding, pre-approved home plans to choose from, fixed pricing, a set construction schedule, full-service construction management, and a 2-10 year home warranty.
If you are living in Bell Gardens because your Altadena home was destroyed in the Eaton Fires, Genesis Builders can help you plan and build your new fire-resistant home back in Altadena.
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. The Eaton Fires showed how devastating ember intrusion can be, especially when wind-driven embers find small openings, vulnerable vents, combustible materials, or weak points around the home.
For Altadena homeowners currently staying in Bell Gardens, our fire-resistant construction program is focused on helping you rebuild stronger on your Altadena lot. Our construction standards are designed for Altadena’s wildfire exposure, hillside conditions, and post-fire rebuilding requirements.
- California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: Establishes wildfire-resistance standards for materials and assemblies in Wildland-Urban Interface areas, including roofing, vents, exterior walls, eaves, and other vulnerable components.
- Altadena Community Standards District requirements: Provides local design and development standards that guide how new homes fit within Altadena’s neighborhoods, lot patterns, and community character.
- Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards Ordinance: Sets residential design requirements for scale, massing, setbacks, and neighborhood compatibility within applicable Los Angeles County areas, including Altadena.
- IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: A science-based wildfire resilience standard focused on reducing ignition risk from embers, radiant heat, and direct flame contact through stronger detailing and material choices.
Building to code is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 CBC Chapter 7A addresses many important wildfire-resistant construction measures, but it only partially addresses or does not fully address certain risk areas such as fences, retaining walls, exterior glass, decks, and ADUs. Genesis Builders closes those gaps by building to the full IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home standard for Altadena rebuilds.
This higher standard is intended to reduce ignition risk and support a safer long-term rebuild. It can also help improve insurability by showing carriers that the home was rebuilt with recognized wildfire mitigation practices that go beyond minimum code requirements.

Genesis Builders offers a curated collection of homes already designed, engineered, and approved for fast-tracked development in Altadena.

Our pre-approved designs range from 1,250 to 2,200 square feet, with 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2 to 3.5 bathrooms, and both single-story and two-story layouts. Each plan is designed to help streamline the rebuilding process while preserving the character and livability Altadena homeowners value.
- SoCal Traditional: A timeless Southern California home style with balanced proportions, welcoming entries, and familiar neighborhood character.
- Mediterranean Revival: A warm architectural style with stucco exteriors, tile roof elements, arched details, and a classic California presence.
- Foothill Craftsman: A design inspired by Altadena’s foothill setting, with natural textures, covered porches, expressive rooflines, and handcrafted details.
