Building new in Santa Cruz County means designing for the site you actually have — the drainage, the soil and the monsoon, not a generic plan set.
Single-family homes, guest houses and casitas, garages and shops, and light commercial buildings. We work from your plans or coordinate the design, and we manage permitting through Santa Cruz County from the start rather than treating it as an afterthought.
A house here has to shed a lot of water very quickly a few times a year and then sit through months of intense sun and wide temperature swings. Roof pitch and drainage, site grading that moves water away from the structure, flashing detail, and shading and envelope decisions all matter more here than the same choices would elsewhere.
We have spent a lot of time repairing water damage in this county. That informs how we build new.
