If You Are Looking to Rebuild in Altadena

Genesis Builders offers a complete turnkey rebuilding solution for Altadena homeowners who lost their homes in the Eaton Fires and are currently living in Lakewood while they plan their return. Our work is focused on rebuilding in Altadena. Lakewood may be where your family is staying for now, whether in a rental, an extended-stay hotel, or with relatives near Lakewood Village, Mayfair, or the Lakewood Center area, but your rebuild is in Altadena.

Many Altadena families relocated to Lakewood after the fires because it offered access to housing, schools, family support, and a more stable temporary routine. Genesis Builders helps you manage the rebuilding process back in Altadena without requiring you to coordinate every professional separately from afar.

With one trusted team, you avoid juggling architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, and contractors as separate vendors. Genesis Builders manages the full path from planning through construction for your Altadena home, so you have one accountable team guiding the process.

Our turnkey 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 schedule, full-service construction management, and a 2-10 year home warranty.

Genesis Builders helps displaced Altadena homeowners who are temporarily living in Lakewood rebuild fire-resistant homes in Altadena with a clearer, more manageable path home.

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. For families currently living in Lakewood after losing an Altadena home in the Eaton Fires, this means your rebuild is planned around the conditions and fire risks of Altadena, rather than the temporary community where you are staying now.

The Eaton Fires made clear how devastating ember intrusion can be. Wind-driven embers can enter vents, collect near combustible materials, ignite fencing, threaten decks, and expose vulnerable parts of the home long before direct flame contact occurs. Our Altadena rebuilds are designed with these lessons in mind.

  • California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: Establishes wildfire-resistant construction requirements for homes in fire hazard areas, including ignition-resistant materials, ember-resistant vents, and exterior assemblies designed to reduce fire vulnerability.
  • Altadena Community Standards District requirements: Guides rebuilding in Altadena so new homes respect neighborhood scale, site planning, and community character while meeting applicable safety and design standards.
  • Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards (RDS) Ordinance: Provides residential design requirements for projects in Los Angeles County, including standards that influence massing, setbacks, height, and overall compatibility.
  • IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: A science-based wildfire resilience standard that addresses ember exposure, defensible space, noncombustible materials, vents, roofs, gutters, decks, accessory structures, and other vulnerability points.

Building to code is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 CBC Chapter 7A only partially addresses or does not address important risk areas such as fences, retaining walls, exterior glass, decks, and ADUs. Genesis Builders closes those gaps for Altadena rebuilds by building to the full IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home standard wherever applicable, which can also help improve insurability.

If you are reviewing plans from Lakewood while preparing to rebuild in Altadena, our team helps you understand how each fire-resistant feature contributes to the long-term safety, durability, and insurance readiness of your new home.
