What building in Mar Vista actually involves
We build around what this area actually demands, starting with the housing stock itself: Beach bungalows and cottages on narrow lots. Licensed general contractor (CSLB #1063782) specializing in home remodeling, additions, kitchen and bathroom renovation, new construction, and ADUs in Mar Vista and throughout Westside.
Mar Vista sits on flat, low-lying ground close to the coast, which means soil conditions often include expansive clay or fill that can shift seasonally as the ground wets and dries, so a thorough soils assessment before any foundation work or addition is time well spent. The marine layer keeps temperatures mild but also pushes persistent moisture against wood framing, stucco, and window assemblies, making waterproofing details and proper flashing more consequential here than they would be a few miles inland. Much of the housing stock dates from the 1940s through the 1960s, a mix of small stucco bungalows and post-war tract homes that tend to have narrow side yards, single-car garages accessed by tight driveways, and older electrical panels and galvanized plumbing that frequently need upgrading once walls are opened. Lot access can be tight on the residential grid, so staging materials and getting equipment into a backyard often takes more planning than the project itself would suggest. Los Angeles County holds dozens of incorporated cities, and each one runs its own building department, so the submittal package, the number of plan check rounds, and the fee schedule for the same project can look different a few miles down the road. Homes in unincorporated pockets go through the county rather than a city, and the mailing address does not always tell you which one has jurisdiction, so settle that first. Your local building department can tell you which trades need separate permits, whether the lot falls in a hillside, flood, or fire hazard overlay, and whether a soils or structural report has to come in with the plans. One statewide ADU law sits under all of it, but the objective design standards layered on top are written city by city.
Common in Mar Vista
- 1950s post-war stucco tract homes on small rectangular lots
- 1960s to 70s California ranch houses with low-pitched roofs
- 1920s to 30s Spanish Colonial Revival bungalows
- two-story 1980s to 90s stucco infill homes replacing original single-story stock
- early 2000s mixed-use condo conversions near Venice Boulevard
- recent three-story ADU-topped lots with detached rear units
Worth settling before you start
- marine-layer moisture and salt air effects on existing stucco and wood framing
- shallow lot depths that limit rear additions without encroaching on setbacks
- expansive clay soils common in the Westside that shift seasonally and affect foundations
- aging original electrical panels and galvanized plumbing typical of pre-1960 stock

“T&N Remodeling Inc did a new addition for us, where they built a whole new family room. Tal was in charge of this project, and he was very attentive, professional, and highly skilled. The entire process from framing to the finishing touches was done impeccably. Tal also made sure to cause minimal disturbance to our day-to-day lives during this process. We absolutely love how the room turned out and are able to enjoy it every day!”

“met with three contractors before starting Our kitchen renovation . All were professional and well - reviewed , but Tal from T&N Remodeling was the only person to create a 3D digital rendering on his computer during our first meeting . He was full of good ideas to make the most of our small space while being mindful of our budget . We loved his design and immediately felt that he understood our needs and , frankly , knew better than us what we needed ! Shortly after we signed the contract , my husband decided to completely peace out on the project - insert exploding brain emoji here . I ' ve never been a Pinterest & HGTV kind of girl , and I didn ' t have visions of my dream kitchen dancing in my head . Thad no idea what I was doing or where to begin , regarding aesthetics or practicalities . I didn ' t know the first thing about flooring ( vinyl , tile , laminate ? ) , backsplash ( what ' s a schluter ? ) , etc . Lucky for me , Tal made the whole process as smooth as possible . He was patient with my myriad of beginner questions , and always very responsive . Additionally , all the guys who came to work on the house were respectful and did great work . We have a tiny house - the kitchen leads right into our small living room , and having people in the kitchen all day Could easily have been a very stressful experience , but it worked out just fine . We even went on vacation in the middle of renovations , and the project continued - - Tal and the workers were great and made sure the house was secured. Thanks a lot Tal and T&N Remodeling for a great job i highly recommend.”
