Why Beverly Hills Chooses DWD Builders
Building in Beverly Hills requires navigating the Beverly Hills Architectural Review Commission (BRAC) — an additional approval layer beyond standard City of Beverly Hills Building & Safety permits. DWD Builders has successfully managed BRAC review on multiple Beverly Hills projects including luxury custom homes, office build-outs, and commercial renovations. CSLB licensed since 2013, we manage the complete Beverly Hills permitting and review process from architectural planning through Certificate of Occupancy.

Frequently Asked Questions — General Contractor in Beverly Hills
Is DWD Builders licensed and bonded in California?
Yes. DWD Builders Inc. holds an active California CSLB General Contractor license and is fully bonded and insured. License information is available upon request.
What types of projects do you handle as a general contractor?
We handle ground-up residential construction, major remodels and additions, commercial build-outs, tenant improvements, ADUs, fire rebuilds, and specialty projects including churches and historical restorations.
Do you handle permitting?
Yes. Permitting is a core part of our service. We manage all city and county permit applications, respond to plan-check corrections, and coordinate with inspectors throughout construction.
How do you keep projects on schedule?
We use a detailed milestone-based schedule updated weekly, a dedicated project manager on every job, and a live client portal where you can track progress, approvals, and expenditures in real time.
Can you work with my architect, or do you provide design services?
Both. We can work seamlessly with your existing design team or connect you with our vetted architect network. We also offer full design-build delivery where we coordinate everything under one contract.
What is your typical project timeline?
Ground-up residential projects typically run 14–24 months. Major remodels are 6–14 months. Commercial projects vary by scope. We provide a detailed schedule in pre-construction before any commitment is made.
What is the difference between a licensed general contractor and an unlicensed contractor in California?
In California, any construction project valued at $500 or more requires a licensed contractor. A CSLB-licensed General Contractor like DWD Builders Inc. carries state-mandated liability insurance, workers' compensation coverage, and a surety bond — protecting you from financial liability if something goes wrong on your project. Unlicensed contractors offer none of these protections. Beyond legality, a licensed GC has passed state competency exams, maintains an active license record you can verify at cslb.ca.gov, and is subject to disciplinary action for misconduct. Hiring unlicensed is a serious financial and legal risk.
How do you manage subcontractors and ensure quality on complex multi-trade projects?
DWD Builders operates with a vetted network of licensed subcontractors in every trade — structural, MEP (mechanical, electrical, plumbing), finish carpentry, tile, glass, and specialty systems. Every subcontractor on our jobs is licensed, insured, and has been quality-vetted over multiple projects. Our on-site superintendent conducts daily inspections, our project manager runs weekly coordination meetings, and every milestone requires sign-off before the next phase begins. You have visibility into all of this through our live client portal.
Do you work on projects outside of Los Angeles?
Yes. While Greater Los Angeles is our primary market, DWD Builders has completed projects in Arizona, New York, and Florida. Our project management systems, client portal, and pre-construction process are designed to work effectively across geographies. We evaluate each out-of-state project on a case-by-case basis — contact us to discuss your location.
