Our licensed and experienced design team works hand-in-hand with our dedicated permit technicians to ensure every detail meets California’s complex local codes. With deep knowledge of city-specific requirements and a proven permitting process, we create plans that not only look great but get approved up to 25%-30% faster than the industry norm.
Project Management
Design can fall apart without expert execution and that’s where professional project management comes in. At Urbatect, your project is led by seasoned professionals who manage timelines, budgets, permits, and inspections so nothing slips through the cracks. With one dedicated point of contact, you’re never chasing updates or handling unexpected issues alone. For California homeowners, this means fewer delays, no surprise costs, and a seamless, stress-free experience from concept to completion.
Permit Submission & Coordination
Navigating California’s permit process is complex. That’s why we handle every step from paperwork to final approval. Urbatect has dedicated in-house permit specialists who manage every step submitting documents, coordinating with city officials, resolving corrections, and fast-tracking approvals. With deep knowledge of local codes across 150+ cities in California we help you avoid costly delays and get permits approved up to 30% faster. Stay informed without the hassle. Faster starts and peace of mind.
Feasibility Study
We offer standalone feasibility studies to help you understand exactly what’s possible on your property before committing to full design or permitting services. By analyzing local zoning regulations, building codes, site constraints, and utility access; and conferring directly with the city when needed we provide a clear picture of your project’s potential. This early-stage assessment is often the smartest first step, giving you clarity and confidence before investing in plans or moving forward with a larger scope. A feasibility study is also typically the first step we undertake for any project involving design – whether it’s a custom home, ADU, addition, or deck.
Title 24 Compliance (Energy Compliance Services)
California’s energy codes are complex and constantly evolving. Urbatect’s licensed experts provide end-to-end Title 24 compliance services ensuring your project meets the latest efficiency standards. From detailed energy reports to seamless coordination with MEP teams, we handle the technical heavy lifting. Whether part of a full build or a standalone need, we help California homeowners stay compliant, efficient, and ready to build without delays.
Landscaping Design
Design outdoor spaces that work as beautifully as they look. Design outdoor spaces that are as functional as they are beautiful. Our landscape design services focus on creating cohesive, visually striking outdoor environments that complement your home’s design and enhance livability. Whether it’s for a new build or a renovation, we thoughtfully plan plantings, hardscapes, layout, and usability tailored to California’s climate, terrain, and water-efficiency standards. The result: well-designed outdoor spaces that elevate your lifestyle, boost curb appeal, and add lasting value to your property.
3D Visualization & Renderings
Our 3D renderings give you a highly realistic view of home layouts during the design phase of the project- long before construction begins. This helps you make confident design decisions early, avoid costly revisions, and ensure every detail matches your vision. For California homeowners, it’s a smarter way to plan with fewer surprises, better communication, and a clearer path from concept to completion. Get it right before the plans are even filed for permit or construction begins.

Our Design-Build Approach
Consultation & Site Visit
Every project starts with a conversation. We’ll meet with you to understand what you’re looking to build whether it’s an ADU, home addition, custom home, or site work. During the initial site visit, we’ll walk your property together, talk through ideas, and point out what’s doable based on the local regulations and your space. You’ll get honest input, a clearer direction, and a team that’s here to make things easier from day one. We will present a detailed and accurate proposal to ensure all your goals are fully addressed.
Designing Services
Once we understand your goals, our design & project management team gets to work creating plans that fit your space, style, and budget. You’ll have input at every step and thanks to 3D views, you’ll actually see how it all comes together before construction begins. By aligning design with construction early, we reduce surprises and stay on budget.
Permitting Services
When it comes to permits, we’ve got you covered. Our dedicated permit team handles all the paperwork, coordinates with the city, and keeps things moving. No confusing forms or frustrating delays we make sure it’s done right, and we keep you in the loop the whole way.
Construction Services
When it’s time to build, you’ll have a skilled crew and a dedicated construction project manager making sure everything goes smoothly. We handle the details scheduling, materials, inspections so you don’t have to worry about it. Our team’s been doing this for over 15 years across California, and we take pride in getting the job done right. You’ll get regular updates, and we’ll always be just a call or text away.
