How long a Valley addition really takes

Build time is not the whole clock. Plan check is. Anyone who quotes a finish date before the permit path is selling you a feeling.

A rear addition in the San Fernando Valley is a foundation, a roof tie-in, and often a new bath. The wood goes up fast once you are allowed to start. Getting allowed is the part owners underestimate.

City of Los Angeles plan check, utility coordination, and inspection windows sit on the calendar whether the internet wants them to or not.

A honest sequence

Site visit. Written scope. Drawings. Plan check. Build. Punch. We do not start finish work against an unpermitted path.

If you need a number for a lender, we can talk ranges after we have walked the joint between old roof and new. That joint is the leak if you rush it.
