If You Are Looking to Rebuild in Altadena
Genesis Builders helps Altadena homeowners rebuild fire-resistant homes in Altadena after the Eaton Fires. Many families who lost homes in Altadena are now staying in Hawthorne, whether in rentals, extended-stay hotels, or with relatives near the South Bay, the 105, or the 405. Our role is to help you move from temporary housing in Hawthorne back to a newly rebuilt home on your Altadena property.
Genesis Builders builds homes only in Altadena. If you are currently living in Hawthorne because your Altadena home was damaged or destroyed, our turnkey rebuilding program is designed to make the path home clearer, faster, and more manageable.
Rebuilding after a catastrophic fire can require architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, insurance coordination, financing, and construction management. With Genesis Builders, one trusted team owns the full process for your Altadena rebuild, so you are not left managing separate professionals while trying to keep life moving from temporary housing in Hawthorne.
Our program includes financing available through preferred lenders, assistance reviewing your insurance policy to understand what may be covered for rebuilding, pre-approved Altadena home plans, fixed pricing, a set schedule, full-service construction management, and a 2-10 year home warranty.
Because our home designs are already prepared for Altadena, families currently living in Hawthorne can begin planning their return with a clearer understanding of cost, schedule, design options, and next steps.
Built to Exceed Every Fire-Resistant Standard in California
Every home Genesis Builders constructs is built in Altadena and is designed to meet or exceed California’s strictest fire safety requirements. For families currently staying in Hawthorne after the Eaton Fires, this matters because the goal is to return to Altadena with a home built for the realities of wildfire exposure.
The Eaton Fires showed how destructive ember intrusion can be. Wind-driven embers can enter small openings, collect near vulnerable materials, and ignite homes even when direct flames are not the first threat. Our Altadena rebuilds are designed with this risk in mind from the beginning.
- California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: Establishes wildfire-related construction standards for exterior materials, vents, roofing, eaves, and other building components in fire-prone areas.
- Altadena Community Standards District requirements: Helps guide rebuilding in Altadena so new homes respect local character, neighborhood form, and applicable community development standards.
- Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards Ordinance: Sets residential design requirements that shape building form, site planning, and neighborhood compatibility for homes in unincorporated Los Angeles County areas such as Altadena.
- IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: Provides a rigorous, science-based standard focused on reducing ignition risk from embers, radiant heat, and nearby combustible materials.
Building to code is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 California Building Code Chapter 7A only partially addresses or does not fully address several important wildfire vulnerabilities, 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 higher standard supports long-term safety and may help improve insurability. For homeowners temporarily living in Hawthorne, that means your Altadena rebuild is planned with both fire resilience and future insurance considerations in mind.
