General Contractor in Santa Paula, California
Serving Santa Paula Since 1994 · Licensed & Insured · Lic. #1027281
Santa Paula calls itself the Citrus Capital of the World, and its neighborhoods carry a century of California history. Master Construction has served Santa Paula for over 30 years, from restoring vintage homes near the historic downtown to finishing brand new houses at Harvest at Limoneira. Licensed and insured (Lic. #1027281), we build for the whole spectrum this town holds.
A Town of Old Craftsmanship and New Growth
Few cities mix housing eras like Santa Paula. One street has Victorians and Craftsman homes that deserve careful restoration, the next has new construction that needs finishing touches, patios, and upgrades the builder never offered. We move comfortably between both worlds, matching hundred year old trim one week and pouring a modern outdoor kitchen the next.

Permits and Plan Check in Santa Paula
Santa Paula requires four sets of plans with a plan check deposit due at submittal, and review runs about thirty days. The building permit itself depends on sign-off from four departments — Planning, Fire, Building & Safety and Public Works — so the critical path is usually approvals rather than drawings.
The counter at 200 S 10th Street keeps split hours, 8am to noon and 1pm to 4:30pm. On older homes near the historic downtown, expect the review to look closely at how new work sits against the existing structure.
