Beverly Hills is accessible via Sunset Boulevard, Santa Monica Boulevard, Wilshire Boulevard, and major canyon roads (Benedict, Coldwater, Franklin). Most projects sit on residential streets with limited street parking, so we coordinate dedicated work zones and parking passes with your HOA or City.
For hillside properties (Trousdale, Beverly Hills Gateway), narrow, winding streets demand careful equipment staging. We plan crane access, material delivery schedules, and debris removal to minimize traffic impact. This coordination is standard practice for our team.

Timeline depends on project scope. Design & permits typically take 4–6 months. Ground-up construction on a 5,000–6,000 sf home usually runs 12–18 months after permits are issued. Simpler projects like ADUs can move faster—often 8–12 months total. We provide detailed schedules during the initial consultation.
Yes, if your lot is zoned residential or mixed-use and has an existing or proposed primary dwelling. Single-family ADUs can be up to 800 sf (150 sf minimum) as detached or attached units, or via garage/structure conversion. City preapproved plans accelerate permitting. Contact our planning team to verify your site's eligibility.
Styles vary by neighborhood. Trousdale Estates enforces mid-century modern and contemporary lines. The Flats favor understated elegance and traditional proportions. La Cienega Park allows Spanish Revival, Mediterranean, and modern. Downtown/Golden Triangle allows contemporary design. We review neighborhood guidelines and design accordingly—no one-size-fits-all approach.
