The Eaton Fire may have devastated the Altadena area, but the process of rebuilding has already started. As you look to the future, Creative Innovation Developers is ready to help you if you choose to rebuild in this community. Here’s key information you should know as you build a new construction home in Altadena after the wildfires.
What Happens After Debris Removal?
Clearing the debris from your property is the first step to rebuilding. After this task has been completed, you’ll need a certification to show that the debris has been adequately removed. You might also need additional documents certifying debris removal from several other departments, including regional planning and the fire department. You’ll be eligible for a building permit only after you satisfy the debris removal requirements.
How Long Will It Take To Build A New Construction Home?
While there’s no set timeline for rebuilding your home, you should be aware of several important deadlines:
- Applications for temporary housing and like-for-like rebuilds must be submitted within two years of the declaration of emergency, according to the Los Angeles Regional Planning Department.
- Construction of the new home must begin within 12 months of the building permit issuance or it will expire.
Extensions may be granted if you need more time to complete your new home construction. At Creative Innovation Developers, we’ll work hard to build you a new home as quickly as possible while following all relevant rules and regulations.
What Can I Expect During the New Home Construction Process?
After all permits and approvals are secured, we’ll break ground on building your new home. You can choose a layout that works for you, and you’re free to customize your home any way you like to make it truly and uniquely yours. Once construction is complete, we’ll handle all the necessary steps like the post-construction inspection to make sure your home is up to code before you move in.

Of course, the goal is to rebuild your home as soon as possible. Even though there are many steps involved, rest assured that Creative Innovation Developers can help you navigate the entire process – from the paperwork to the final touches.
