Rebuilding a home in Altadena after a fire can be overwhelming. Avoid these common mistakes:
1. Hiring Unlicensed Contractors
Always check licenses and insurance—disaster often attracts scammers.
2. Skipping the Structural Engineer
Fire can compromise foundations and framing. Get a full inspection.
3. Ignoring Local Fire Codes
Altadena has its own fire-risk mitigation laws. Stay compliant from day one.
4. Rushing the Design
You’re not just replacing—you’re improving. Take the time to plan a smarter layout.
5. Poor Communication
