Rebuilding in Altadena after the Eaton Fire? Start your free Rebuild Roadmap

Pasadena · Altadena · Los Angeles Foothills

Homes designed and built for life in the foothills.

Two companies. One coordinated team. ROAM Design Studio LLC handles residential design and permitting, and ROAM Builders Inc. (CSLB Lic. #1151324) handles construction. We plan early, involve you in every key decision, and keep design and construction coordinated from first conversation to final walkthrough.

How we work

Design and construction, working together.

Intentional design

We take the time to listen, discover, and understand your exact project requirements.

Clear communication

Our design and construction teams coordinate with you and with each other, keeping information organized and responsibilities clear so you understand the decisions ahead and the next steps.

Collaborative solutions

Design and construction professionals involved from the start, so questions about scope, budget, and buildability come up early, while they are easiest to resolve.

Our process

Four steps from first call to finished home.

Consultation

We start with a free initial phone consultation. Share your goals and questions, and we'll talk through next steps, including whether an on-site property visit makes sense for your project.

Conceptualize

Initial concept design, planning, and a preliminary budget to help you weigh scope, materials, and priorities. Preliminary budgets guide planning; construction pricing is set in ROAM Builders Inc.'s project-specific proposal and agreement.

Design documentation

Once you approve the design, ROAM Design Studio LLC prepares the design, permit, and planning documents and submits them to the governing agencies. While permits are in review, the design and construction teams coordinate on pricing and planning.

Construction

ROAM Builders Inc. plans the construction phasing, schedules inspections, and coordinates with your project's consultants. You stay involved through selections, decisions, and site walkthroughs, with regular updates as the work progresses.
