Design-Build Contractor in Pasadena
Pasadena’s housing runs from the iconic Craftsman bungalows of Bungalow Heaven to the estates of Oak Knoll and the tighter lots of Madison Heights — and we work all of it. What sets us apart here is fluency with Pasadena’s Historic Preservation Overlay Zones and a working relationship with Design & Historic Preservation staff that makes HPOZ approvals predictable. Original Craftsman details get protected, not papered over.
Building in Pasadena — what to know
Pasadena has 12 HPOZs — Bungalow Heaven, Garfield Heights, Madison Heights, Prospect, and others — each with its own preservation plan governing exterior changes (windows, roofs, additions, fences, sometimes paint). Certificate of Appropriateness review adds 60–120 days to the design phase but is workable when the design respects the zone. Outside HPOZs, plan-check is standard but rigorous.
