WHAT WE DO
Hillside Development
Build where the views are. We design and build homes and additions on sloped and challenging lots across Los Angeles, turning difficult terrain into stunning, stable, and functional living spaces.
From site evaluation and engineering to foundations, retaining walls, and final finishes, we manage every phase of your hillside project. We coordinate with geotechnical and structural engineers, navigate the city’s hillside regulations and permits, and build homes designed to make the most of every square foot and every view.
How It Works
Our Hillside Building Process
1. Site evaluation. We assess the slope, access, soils, and drainage on your lot and identify the hillside regulations that apply.
2. Engineering. We coordinate geotechnical and structural engineers to design foundations, retaining walls, and drainage suited to the terrain.
3. Permits and approvals. We prepare the plans and work through the city’s hillside review and permitting process.
4. Foundations to finishes. We build from deep foundations and retaining walls up through framing and final finishes, carefully managing access and safety on steep sites.

FAQ
Hillside Construction Questions, Answered
Why are hillside projects more complex?
Sloped lots usually need soils reports, specialized foundations, retaining walls, and drainage planning, along with additional city review. Access for equipment and materials can also be limited, so planning and scheduling matter even more.
Do I need a geotechnical report?
Most hillside projects require a soils or geotechnical report to guide the foundation and retaining wall design. We coordinate this work with licensed engineers as part of the process.
Can you build on a vacant hillside lot?
Yes. We work on vacant hillside lots as well as properties with existing homes, from site evaluation and grading through construction.
Do you also build hillside additions?
Yes. We design and build additions on sloped properties, including the foundations and structural work needed to expand your home safely.
