If You Are Looking to Rebuild in Altadena
Genesis Builders builds homes only in Altadena. If you lost your Altadena home in the Eaton Fires and are currently living in Marina del Rey, we can help you plan, permit, and rebuild your home back in Altadena with one coordinated turnkey team.
Many Altadena families relocated to Marina del Rey after the fires, staying in apartment rentals, extended-stay hotels, or with relatives near Admiralty Way, Marina Beach, Washington Boulevard, or Burton Chace Park. While Marina del Rey may be where your family is living right now, the rebuild work we provide is for your Altadena property.
Genesis Builders helps displaced Altadena homeowners return home to Altadena with a safer, fire-resistant rebuild managed from start to finish by one trusted team.
Rebuilding after a catastrophic loss can involve architects, engineers, surveyors, permit expediters, lenders, insurance representatives, and contractors. Genesis Builders brings these pieces into one managed process, so you do not have to coordinate each party separately while living away from your neighborhood.
Our turnkey program includes pre-approved home designs, financing available through preferred lenders, help reviewing your insurance policy to understand what may be covered for rebuilding, fixed pricing, a set construction schedule, full-service construction management, and a 2-10 year home warranty.
Our pre-approved plans give your Altadena rebuild a stronger starting point. Instead of beginning from a blank page, you can select a home already designed for Altadena lots, local requirements, and faster development review, then personalize finishes and approved options to fit your household.
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 dangerous ember intrusion can be, especially when wind-driven embers enter vents, ignite debris near structures, or find vulnerable gaps around roofs, decks, windows, fences, and exterior details.
Our Altadena rebuilds are designed around the standards that matter most for wildfire resilience:
- California HCD Chapter 7A requirements: State-level wildfire construction standards for homes in designated fire hazard areas, including requirements for ignition-resistant materials, roofing, vents, exterior walls, and related building components.
- Altadena Community Standards District requirements: Local standards that guide residential development in Altadena, including design compatibility, site planning, neighborhood character, and property-specific considerations.
- Los Angeles County Residential Design Standards (RDS) Ordinance: Countywide residential design rules that address scale, massing, setbacks, building form, and neighborhood-sensitive development for new homes and rebuilds.
- IBHS Wildfire Prepared Home Technical Standard requirements: A science-based wildfire resilience standard focused on reducing ignition risk from embers, direct flame contact, and radiant heat through detailed requirements for the home and the defensible space immediately around it.
Building to code is the floor, not the ceiling. The 2025 California Building Code Chapter 7A improves wildfire safety, yet it only partially addresses or does not fully address several important areas, 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 approach strengthens the home’s resistance to ember intrusion and ignition sources around the structure, and it may also help improve insurability as carriers continue to evaluate wildfire risk more closely across California.
