The housing stock
An art colony on hillside lots
Laguna Beach started as an artists’ colony and incorporated in 1927. Much of the town is cottages and hillside houses on small, steep lots, many of them decades old, between the canyon and the coast.
Those lots shape every job: tight access, stairs instead of driveways, and neighbors close on every side. Interior kitchens and bathrooms are the most straightforward work here, because they stay inside the walls the city has already approved.

Permits and license
Who pulls the permit
- The city reviews it. A remodel in Laguna Beach that moves plumbing, electrical or a wall needs a building permit from the city. We say at the estimate if your job needs one, and we pull it.
- Design review is part of the job. Laguna Beach established its design review process in 1972, for new construction and changes to existing buildings, with its own board. Exterior work and additions go through it, and its calendar sets the schedule. Interior remodels usually do not.
- The coast adds a layer. Parts of the city sit in the California coastal zone. Additions and exterior changes there can need a coastal development permit as well as the building permit. Interior kitchens and baths usually do not.
- The license is ours to hold. New Horizon Repair Services holds California CSLB License #1151716, Class B General Building. You can look it up on the CSLB site before you sign anything, and you should.
- The scope is written before work starts. You get the estimate in writing, and work starts when you approve it.
