Plans, Permits & Design in Beverly Hills

City of Beverly Hills Community Development Department, Building & Safety. Beverly Hills permits independently with its own plan check and design review. Standards for construction hours, staging and street use are strictly enforced, and hillside properties north of Sunset carry additional grading review. We prepare the drawings, make the submittal and handle plan-check corrections ourselves, so you are not the one chasing the city.

Estate properties where finish quality, discretion and a clean jobsite matter as much as the design itself. In practice that means trousdale and Benedict Canyon parcels are hillside builds requiring engineered retaining.

All of it, including Beverly Hills Flats, Trousdale Estates, Beverly Hills Post Office, Benedict Canyon. We are based in Los Angeles at Cahuenga Pass, so Beverly Hills is a short run for our crews rather than a job we service from out of the area.

Plans, drawings and permit management in this market generally runs $4,500 to $25,000+. What moves it is project type and size, whether structural engineering, Title 24 or a soils report is required, and how many jurisdictions or review bodies are involved. We give line-item pricing after seeing the site rather than quoting a number over the phone.

Yes. Plans and permits is a service we sell on its own, and plenty of clients use us for the drawing set and permit management and build with someone else. We would rather do it properly than tie it to a construction contract.

Because the required consultants vary. A straightforward patio cover needs a modest set. An ADU on a sloped lot may need structural engineering, Title 24, a soils report and a survey, and each of those is a separate specialist fee on top of the city's own plan-check and permit charges.

Most commonly incomplete structural detail, missing Title 24 forms, drainage not shown, or a discrepancy between the site plan and the survey. Corrections are normal, not a failure. The thing that costs time is a slow response to them, which is why we act as the applicant.

Yes, where a community requires it. HOA architectural review runs on its own calendar and its own standards, entirely separately from the city, and starting it late is one of the most common reasons a project slips.
