LA Rebuild · for builders & trades

We only want to
rebuild once.

Thousands of homes are being rebuilt across the Palisades, Malibu and Altadena. The fastest way to lose a year is a trade that doesn't show, isn't licensed, or has to be redone. We help builders find vetted trades, and help good trades find the builders who need them.

How it works

Builders free. Trades vetted.

For builders

A bench of trades you can trust

Tell us what you need and where. We introduce trades that meet our standard. You never pay us.

For trades

Know which jobs need you, and when

Public permits and inspections show which rebuilds are framed and haven't pulled your trade's permit yet. Pass our check and we connect you with the builders running them.

Our standard

Every trade we introduce is checked.

  1. Active license

    Current California license in the right class, checked against the state board.

  2. Workers' comp and bond

    Coverage on file and current.

  3. Clean record

    No open disciplinary flags.

  4. Local and reachable

    A real business that answers the phone and works the area.

  5. Builder feedback

    Builders tell us how it went. Trades that don't hold up don't stay on.

What we won't do

Recovery first.

We don't contact homeowners or fire survivors. We don't sell placement, take a cut of the contract, or raise prices in disaster areas. Trades pay a flat fee for vetting and introductions. Builders pay nothing.

Building in the burn areas?
