We Build in Malibu. We Know Malibu.
We know Malibu block by block. From Point Dume, Malibu Colony, Big Rock, Las Flores, Malibu Park, and everywhere in between, we've worked on homes across Los Angeles County for over 44+ years. Building in Malibu means building through the California Coastal Act. A permit here is a Coastal Development Permit first and a building permit second. Our 44 years and the right consultant team keep that process from stalling your project.
Permitting in Malibu has its own personality, and it directly affects your accessory dwelling units (adu) project. City of Malibu Building & Safety, but nearly all of Malibu sits in the coastal zone. Most projects require a Coastal Development Permit under the Malibu Local Coastal Plan alongside the building permit, and blufftop or beachfront work can involve geotechnical and coastal engineering review. Pre-application meetings with planning and fire staff are strongly advised. Malibu is the most permit-complex city on our list. CDP timelines run months, blufftop and beachfront lots need geologic setbacks and can face coastal-armoring limits, and many properties are on septic (OWTS) rather than sewer. We build the coastal-permitting and technical-report coordination into the timeline from day one so clients are not blindsided. Our ICC-certified team handles every layer of the approval process so your accessory dwelling units (adu) moves forward without surprises.
When you hire us for your accessory dwelling units (adu) in Malibu, you're getting a contractor who understands the difference between a coastal modern or contemporary custom home and a tract build. We spec materials and methods that fit the home and the neighborhood, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
