What makes ground up & fire rebuild construction different in Holmby Hills
Holmby Hills is part of LA's Platinum Triangle, the smallest and most exclusive of the three corners alongside Beverly Hills and Bel Air. Lots are large; homes are old; budgets and timelines reflect both. Mediterranean and English-manor estates dominate, often with original 1920s and 1930s plumbing and electrical that need full updates during any serious remodel. We approach Holmby Hills with the same precision the architecture deserves.
Hillside parcels in Holmby Hills carry their own engineering load. Drainage, retaining-wall design, caissons where pools or major additions are part of the scope, and fire-zone defensible-space requirements all shape how a ground up & fire rebuild construction project gets sequenced. We coordinate hillside engineering at the design phase, not at construction.
Most Holmby Hills homes were built before 1980. That means galvanized supply lines, undersized electrical panels, original gas runs, and rough-in plumbing that hasn't been touched in decades. Once walls open during a ground up & fire rebuild construction project, we expect to bring the underlying systems to current code, not as a surprise, as a plan.
Common architecture in Holmby Hills: Mediterranean Estate, English Manor, Spanish Colonial Revival. We design westside renovations to honor what's already there while bringing systems and finishes up to current code and current standards.
