If You Are Looking to Rebuild in Altadena
Genesis Builders builds homes only in Altadena. This page is for Altadena homeowners who lost their homes in the Eaton Fires and are currently living in La Mirada while they plan their return home.
After the Eaton Fires, many Altadena families found temporary housing in La Mirada, including rentals, extended-stay hotels, and family homes near areas such as Biola University, Creek Park, La Mirada Regional Park, and schools in the Norwalk-La Mirada Unified School District. La Mirada may be where you are staying now, but your rebuild is in Altadena, and that is where Genesis Builders focuses our work.
Genesis Builders offers a complete turnkey rebuilding solution for displaced Altadena homeowners. Our team manages the full process so you do not have to coordinate separate architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, and contractors on your own while also handling insurance, temporary housing, work, and family responsibilities.
Our rebuilding program includes financing options available through preferred lenders, help 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.
Our pre-approved home designs give Altadena homeowners a meaningful head start. Instead of beginning with a blank page, you can select from homes already designed and engineered for Altadena, then personalize the details that matter most for your family.
Our goal is to help displaced Altadena homeowners move from uncertainty to a clear rebuilding plan, with one trusted team accountable from start to finish.
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 destructive wind-driven embers can be, especially when they enter vulnerable areas of a home or ignite nearby materials. Our approach is centered on reducing those risks through stronger design, better materials, and careful construction details.
Genesis Builders builds Altadena homes to align with the following standards:
- California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: These rules address wildfire-resistant construction in fire hazard areas, including exterior walls, roofs, vents, windows, doors, and other building components that can be exposed to flame and embers.
- Altadena Community Standards District requirements: These standards help guide how homes fit within Altadena’s community character, including site planning, design compatibility, and neighborhood-specific development expectations.
- Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards (RDS) Ordinance: These standards regulate residential design quality, scale, massing, and neighborhood compatibility for homes in unincorporated Los Angeles County communities such as Altadena.
- IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: This science-based standard focuses on reducing wildfire risk through ember-resistant construction, defensible space, noncombustible materials, and careful treatment of the home ignition zone.
For Genesis Builders, code compliance is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 CBC Chapter 7A only partially addresses or does not address several important wildfire exposure points, including fences, retaining walls, exterior glass, decks, and ADUs. Genesis Builders closes those gaps by building to the full IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home standard, which provides a more complete approach to wildfire resilience and may also help improve long-term insurability.
Because we build only in Altadena, our fire-resistant construction program is specifically focused on helping Altadena homeowners rebuild stronger after the Eaton Fires. La Mirada is simply where some families are waiting while their Altadena rebuild moves forward.
Choose From Pre-Approved Designs Built for Altadena
Genesis Builders offers a curated collection of pre-approved home designs created for fast-tracked development in Altadena. These homes range from 1,250 to 2,200 square feet and include 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2 to 3.5 bathrooms, and both single-story and two-story options.
Each design has already been planned, engineered, and organized to help reduce delays in the rebuilding process. For homeowners currently staying in La Mirada, this can make planning from a distance more manageable, since you are choosing from clear, complete options for your Altadena property.
Available architectural styles include:
- SoCal Traditional: A familiar Southern California home style with balanced proportions, comfortable layouts, and timeless curb appeal.
- Mediterranean Revival: A warm, classic style with stucco finishes, tile roof inspiration, arched details, and indoor-outdoor living elements.
- Foothill Craftsman: A design inspired by Altadena’s foothill character, with welcoming porches, strong rooflines, and natural material accents.
- California Bungalow: A compact, efficient, and character-rich style suited for homeowners who want a practical layout with traditional California charm.
You can customize interior finishes and select optional ADU configurations where appropriate for your Altadena lot. Genesis Builders provides guaranteed pricing so you can make decisions with clarity before construction begins.
