Fire-Rebuild Development

Rebuilding Cities
Bringing Homes Back Stronger

Altadena and Pacific Palisades lost thousands of homes to the January 2025 fires. EGX rebuilds in fire-resistant, non-combustible construction to help displaced homeowners return, faster, in homes engineered to resist what burned the last one down.

The Mission

Helping Displaced Homeowners
Come Home, Sooner

The Eaton and Palisades fires displaced thousands of families. The hard part is not the burn. The hard part is the wait - two summers, three summers, four - for stick-built construction to deliver while families live in rentals. EGX shortens that wait.

We rebuild homes in roughly half the time of conventional construction. We rebuild them with non-combustible Type II steel framing, fiber cement cladding, and fire-rated assemblies engineered to resist what burned the last one down. That is the work. That is the reason this practice exists.

The neighborhoods come back when the homes come back. Schools, businesses, fabric of the place.

EGX exists for this work. We rebuild so families can come home, faster.

Built To Last
Engineered Beyond Code

EGX rebuilds use Type II steel framing, non-combustible assemblies, and fiber cement cladding. The result is a structure that meets or exceeds California Building Code Chapter 7A requirements for wildland-urban interface zones. Insurance carriers price the difference.

Type II Steel Framing
Cold-formed steel rated non-combustible per IBC Type II construction. Will not feed fire. Maintains structural integrity at temperatures that compromise wood framing.
Fiber Cement Cladding
Non-combustible exterior cladding rated for wildland-urban interface use. Resists ignition under sustained ember exposure and radiant heat. Long service life, minimal maintenance.
Class A Roof Assemblies
Roof assemblies rated to ASTM E108 / UL 790 Class A - the highest non-combustible classification. Standing-seam metal or tile over fire-rated underlayment. Roofs are where most fire-rebuild homes were lost.
Sealed Building Envelope
Every penetration engineered closed. Ember-resistant vent screening, sealed eaves, gasketed wall assemblies, and tempered glazing eliminate the gap-and-vent intrusion path that defeats stick-built rebuilds.

Specific manufacturer specifications, fire ratings, and assembly details documented in the EGX construction set for each project. Subject to local code review and fire authority approval.

Why Modular Wins Here

Speed Is Everything
When Families Are Waiting

EGX delivers fire-rebuild homes in roughly half the time of stick-built construction. Eight to thirteen months versus sixteen to twenty-five. For displaced homeowners that delta is the difference between two summers in a rental and one.

Modular also brings precision factory assembly, non-combustible engineered components, and consistent code-exceeding spec. Insurance premiums price lower with carriers than stick-built. The owners and the carriers both win.
