A Permit Matching contractor shaking hands with a homeowner in front of her new home

Building across Southern California since 2006

We Design, Permit, and Build It — All of It.

Permit Matching is a licensed design-build general contractor — we design, permit, and build with our own crews. The people you talk to are the people on site.

What Permit Matching is

Permit Matching is an owner-operated, licensed design-build general contractor serving Greater Los Angeles and Southern California. Our own crews design, permit, and build your project from first drawing to final walkthrough, and the owner who answers your call is accountable for all of it. Licensed, bonded & insured; CSLB license number available upon request. Building across Los Angeles and Southern California for 20 years, since 2006.

We’re the Contractor, Not a Referral Service

A lot of companies that help with a building project sit between you and the work — they take your information, pass your job to whoever’s available, and step away. We built the opposite.

We design your project, pull the permit under our own CSLB license, put our crew on site, and carry the build through to final inspection. You are not introduced to a stranger and left to fend for yourself — the people you talk to are the people who do the work.

And when something needs to be made right, you call us. There is no middle layer to wade through and no one else to point to. One company is on the hook, start to finish.

Accountability

Run by the Builder, Not a Back Office.

Permit Matching is owner-operated. The same person who answers your first call walks the project, signs off on the scope, and stays accountable for how it turns out — there is no back office to absorb the responsibility and no deal desk to hand you off to.

The owner’s name is on every permit we pull and every job we finish. When something isn’t right, you don’t chase a call center or wait on a subcontractor to call you back. You call us, and we make it right.

Two decades of building gives us no one to hide behind — the work stands on its own, and so do we.

“Our name is on every permit we pull.”

What We Believe

We do not scale by volume or chase quick jobs. We build the work ourselves, and these are the convictions that shape how we run a project.

  1. One company, fully accountable

    We design it, permit it, and build it — all under one roof. When the work goes well, that is on us; when something needs to be made right, there is no one else to point to. The accountability is ours alone.

  2. You should reach the people who do the work

    No call center, no handoff. From the first call to the final walkthrough, you talk to the owner and work with the in-house crew who actually build your project.

  3. Licensed, bonded, and insured

    We hold the CSLB license, pull your permit under it, and stand behind every job. Licensed, bonded & insured — CSLB license number available upon request.

  4. Regional depth, earned over decades

    Two decades of building across Southern California means we know the jurisdictions, the inspectors, and how permit timing really moves — knowledge a national platform cannot fake.

How we price the work

Clear, Honest Pricing.

You get one detailed, line-item estimate after we walk the project — the scope and the number are spelled out before we start. No vague allowances, no surprise change-order games.

We’d rather earn your trust with a clear number than win the job with a low one. Our interest and yours point the same direction: a project done right, at a fair, transparent price.

Built Across Southern California.

We build across Greater LA, Riverside, Thousand Oaks, Bakersfield, Calabasas, and the Coachella Valley — and we’re expanding into San Diego. Building codes and permit timelines change at every city line, and because we work these jurisdictions week after week, we bring depth a national platform never could.

Our own in-house crews

We run our own crews — no chain of random subs you never meet, and no handoff after the deposit.

City-specific permit reality

Codes and review timelines differ by jurisdiction. We build through them week after week.

Insider permit timing

We know which counters move fast, which stall, and how to plan around both.

Neighborhood-level fluency

A Pasadena bungalow and a Venice rebuild are different jobs. We treat them that way.

What You Can Expect

Because we self-perform the work, accountability is not a promise we outsource — it is built into how we make our living.

  1. A direct line to the owner

    You talk to the owner and the crew who do the work — no call center, no handoff.

  2. Clear, honest, line-item pricing

    One detailed estimate after we walk the project — scope and price spelled out before we start.

  3. Licensed and accountable

    Licensed, bonded & insured — we hold the CSLB license, pull your permit under it, and stand behind every job.

  4. Quality over quantity

    We would rather build one project right than rush through ten. Our name is on every job, and that name is ours alone.
