Hollywood Contractor Corp — Licensed Design-Build General Contractor

Yes — the Los Angeles Department of Building & Safety (LADBS) requires permits for any addition that adds square footage, modifies the building envelope, or affects structural, electrical, plumbing, or mechanical systems. Hollywood Contractor Corp handles the full permitting process for home additions and ADUs: drawings, structural calculations, plan check submission, inspection coordination, and final sign-off.

Total ADU timeline from design to certificate of occupancy is typically 6–9 months: 2–4 months for design, plan check, and permit issuance, followed by 4–6 months of construction for a 600–1,200 sq ft unit. Garage conversion ADUs are faster (3–5 months construction) since the foundation and envelope already exist. California’s HCD ADU laws require LA jurisdictions to act on ADU permits within 60 days of complete submittal.

Yes. Hollywood Contractor Corp operates under CSLB License #1092628 with B (General Building), C-36 (Plumbing), and C-50 (Pile Driving / Foundation Jacking) classifications. We carry workers’ compensation insurance and general liability coverage. License status, classifications, and any disciplinary history can be independently verified on the California Contractors State License Board website.

Yes. Hollywood Contractor Corp coordinates architectural design, interior design, structural engineering, and construction through one project manager, with in-house certified designers. Design-build reduces handoff errors between separate architects and contractors, shortens timelines, and gives a single point of accountability for both budget and quality. Applies to remodels, additions, and new construction projects.

An ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) is a complete secondary dwelling with its own kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping area — either attached or detached from the primary home, up to 1,200 sq ft. A JADU (Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit) is limited to 500 sq ft, must be carved out of an existing single-family home, and can share a bathroom with the main house. Both increase property value and rental potential under California law; Hollywood Contractor Corp builds both types.

Yes — small commercial work falls under the B (General Building) classification. Hollywood Contractor Corp handles office build-outs, retail tenant improvements, restaurant remodels, and multi-family residential. Commercial projects require coordination with LADBS Commercial Plan Check, ADA compliance review, and (for restaurants/food service) LA County Department of Public Health approval. Contact us to discuss your commercial project.
