The Homes We Work On in Malibu
Homes range from beachfront properties along Pacific Coast Highway to bluff-top and canyon estates, spanning every era from mid-century beach houses to major contemporary compounds. Salt air, slope conditions, and wildfire exposure shape how these homes are built and rebuilt.
Permits and Plan Check
The City of Malibu issues its own permits, and because the entire city lies within the coastal zone, most significant projects also require a coastal development permit — a process that demands patience and precise documentation. Geology, septic, and fire-zone requirements add further review layers on many lots. Recent wildfires have also created dedicated rebuild pathways for affected owners, which we help clients navigate.
Popular Projects in Malibu
- Fire Rebuild: Wildfire losses in recent years have made ground-up rebuilds one of the most important services we provide on the coast.
- Custom Home / New Construction: Many owners choose to build new to modern coastal and fire-resistant standards rather than renovate.
- Full House Remodel: Older beach houses benefit from comprehensive upgrades to structure, systems, and weather resistance.
- Kitchen Remodel: Kitchens oriented to ocean views and indoor-outdoor entertaining are a defining feature of homes here.
