Fire Rebuild Permits in Southern California

Wildfire reconstruction involves unique permitting challenges that standard contractors often don't understand. From environmental clearances to updated building codes, there are specific requirements that can delay your project for months if not handled correctly. Having reviewed hundreds of Woolsey Fire rebuild projects as Malibu's prior Environmental Health Administrator, I know exactly what agencies are looking for and how to present your project for quick approval.

I take complete ownership of your permit coordination process. This includes gathering all required submittals, coordinating with city and county agencies, managing communications between your contractor and regulatory staff, and ensuring all documentation meets current standards. You'll have a single point of contact who speaks the language of both construction and government agencies.

As the former Environmental Health Administrator who actually approved rebuild permits, I have unique insight into what makes applications succeed or fail. I know the common mistakes that cause delays, understand exactly how reviewers evaluate projects, and have established relationships with key agency staff throughout Southern California.

Every rebuild project follows a strategic path to approval. I start with a comprehensive assessment of your specific site and project requirements, then develop a customized permitting strategy. Throughout the process, I provide regular updates and handle all agency communications, so you always know where your project stands and what's happening next.
