If You Are Looking to Rebuild in Altadena
Genesis Builders builds fire-resistant homes in Altadena only. If your Altadena home was destroyed in the Eaton Fires and you are currently staying in La Verne, our role is to help you return home to Altadena with a complete turnkey rebuilding solution.
Many Altadena families relocated to La Verne after the fires, whether in rentals, extended-stay lodging, or with relatives near areas such as the University of La Verne, Old Town La Verne, or the Bonita Unified School District community. While La Verne may be where you are living for now, your rebuild is in Altadena, and Genesis Builders manages the process around that goal.
Rebuilding after a catastrophic loss can involve architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, insurance contacts, lenders, and contractors. Genesis Builders brings these steps under one coordinated team, so you do not have to manage each discipline separately while also handling the disruption of displacement.
Our turnkey program includes preferred lender financing options, support reviewing your insurance policy to help identify what may be covered for rebuilding, pre-approved home plans to choose from, 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 rebuilding, you can begin with a clear plan instead of starting from a blank page. That head start helps create a more predictable path from your temporary living situation in La Verne back to a permanent home in Altadena.
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 exterior openings, collect near combustible materials, or reach weak points around roofs, vents, decks, fences, windows, and accessory structures.
For Altadena homeowners currently living in La Verne, this means your new Altadena home will be planned with fire resilience as a core requirement from the start. Genesis Builders builds in Altadena only, and our fire-resistant construction standards are applied to the homes we rebuild there.
- California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: Establishes wildfire-resistant construction rules for homes in fire hazard areas, including requirements for ignition-resistant materials, vents, roofing, exterior walls, and related building components.
- Altadena Community Standards District requirements: Provides local design and development standards that help new homes fit Altadena’s neighborhood character while meeting applicable rebuilding rules.
- Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards (RDS) Ordinance: Sets residential design expectations for scale, massing, site planning, and neighborhood compatibility within applicable Los Angeles County areas, including Altadena.
- IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: A research-based wildfire resilience standard focused on reducing ember ignition risk, hardening vulnerable exterior areas, and improving the survivability of the structure and its immediate surroundings.
Building to code is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 CBC Chapter 7A only partially addresses or does not address several important wildfire exposure areas, including 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 can also help improve insurability by showing that the home was rebuilt with recognized wildfire mitigation practices. Insurance decisions remain subject to each carrier’s underwriting process, but a stronger, documented fire-resistant rebuild can be an important part of the conversation.
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 plans are designed, engineered, and prepared for homeowners rebuilding in Altadena after the Eaton Fires, including families who are temporarily living in La Verne while they wait to return.
Available plans 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 design balances efficient rebuilding, neighborhood fit, modern comfort, and fire-resistant construction details appropriate for Altadena.
- SoCal Traditional: A familiar Southern California home style with balanced proportions, welcoming entries, and flexible interior layouts for everyday family living.
- Mediterranean Revival: A timeless style with stucco exteriors, warm architectural details, and a refined street presence suited to established Altadena neighborhoods.
- Foothill Craftsman: A character-rich design inspired by the San Gabriel foothills, with inviting rooflines, thoughtful material choices, and strong curb appeal.
- California Bungalow: A comfortable, efficient style with a relaxed California feel, practical floor plans, and a scale that works well for many Altadena lots.
You can customize interior finishes and review optional ADU configurations, all with guaranteed pricing. The goal is to provide choice without creating uncertainty around cost, schedule, or constructability.
Genesis Builders does not build these homes in La Verne. We work with Altadena property owners who may be living in La Verne temporarily, and the homes we build are for their Altadena lots.
