Meet the Team
We’re a talented group of builders, project consultants, and writers who are passionate about construction. Los Angeles Contractors is a regional online magazine focusing on the construction and housing industry. The magazine celebrates the best builders, remodelers, and architects in the Los Angeles metropolitan area and is a trusted source for recommendations about construction professionals. In addition to helpful guides and inspirational resources for current and future homeowners, we offer consultation services and building expertise. Our story started in 2016 when we realized that there was a lack of well-researched, long-form, and geographically focused information about contractors across various project types. Our mission continues to be to help property owners discover the right builder for their project, and to recognize those construction companies that have a proven track record of excellent craftsmanship.
