Your Trusted Santa Monica Construction Partner
New Dawn Construction brings expertise to Santa Monica's coastal properties. We understand the unique challenges of building and remodeling in a coastal environment, from salt air considerations to earthquake preparedness. Our team specializes in creating beautiful, durable spaces that capture Santa Monica's indoor-outdoor lifestyle while withstanding coastal conditions.
We handle every phase of the remodeling process in Santa Monica — from initial design consultations and city permit applications through demolition, rough framing, finish carpentry, and final walk-throughs. Our project managers coordinate plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and structural engineering so you deal with one company instead of juggling multiple subcontractors.
Every project in Santa Monica begins with a detailed scope of work and fixed-price contract. We don't surprise you with change-order markups. If something unexpected comes up — like hidden water damage behind drywall — we discuss options and costs before proceeding. That transparency is why more than 80 percent of our clients come from referrals and repeat business.
