The Homes We Work On in Altadena
Before the fire, the community's stock was a rich mix of early-20th-century Craftsman homes, Spanish Revival houses, and mid-century properties on unusually spacious lots at the base of the San Gabriels. Many streets now combine surviving original homes with active rebuild sites, and lot sizes continue to support generous new floor plans.
Permits and Plan Check
As an unincorporated community, Altadena is served by Los Angeles County Building and Safety rather than a city department, so plan check and inspections follow county processes. In the aftermath of the Eaton Fire, the county has established dedicated rebuild resources and streamlined pathways for affected homeowners. We help families work through both the recovery-specific process and standard county permitting.
