Contractor in Pasadena.
Pasadena is historic-preservation territory. Many of our projects here involve Landmark District review, CHRD approvals, and the care required to renovate a 1910 Craftsman without ruining what makes it one.
About RAA in Pasadena
Local knowledge, built into every project.
Pasadena has the densest concentration of architecturally significant housing in the LA region - Greene & Greene bungalows in Bungalow Heaven, Craftsman and Spanish Revival through Madison Heights, historic Landmark Districts throughout. Work there is not the same as work in a 1970s Valley tract home.
We handle Pasadena Landmark District review, CHRD (Certificate of Appropriateness), structural reinforcement on old foundations, and the specific sensitivities of restoring original trim, windows, and finishes. We also do full modern additions invisible from the street.
Our Pasadena project list has included full historic renovations, kitchen remodels that respected original cabinetry profiles, primary bath additions hidden behind the original roofline, and detached ADUs on Craftsman lots.

My jaw dropped after seeing my bathroom. My entire family is so excited and we are in awe for our newly renovated bath in less than a day!!! Even my old sink and cabinet looked elegant because of what Team RAA Construction Group put together.
We lived in throughout the build, and they made it much easier than we expected by setting up a temporary kitchen and partitioning the upper floors to keep dust under control. They were also very flexible when we wanted to make a few changes mid-build, updating the plans without any hassle.
Alex and his team were wonderful to work with. Not only did I get a great value, but a very quality product that i'm extremely happy with. I would highly recommend anyone to use them and actually have recommended him to 2 of my friends. They are fantastic!
We had a really great experience with our bathroom remodel! Roy was super professional and answered all our questions. he did amazing work on our shower, and even the team that installed our glass shower doors thought we had completely replaced the tile and shower pan—they were really impressed by the transformation.
My wife and I recently undertook a major home renovation project, which included expanding the kitchen, removing a load-bearing wall to create a more open living space, completely remodeling the bathrooms, installing new flooring, and more. We reached out to several contractors for estimates, including RAA Construction Group, who came highly recommended by my sister based on her own positive experience with them. From our initial consultation, RAA stood out. Not only did they offer fair and highly competitive pricing, but Moti took the time to listen carefully to our vision. He proposed creative, thoughtful solutions to address the unique challenges that often come with older homes. His approach immediately gave us confidence, and made choosing RAA Construction Group an easy decision. The project began on schedule and unfolded exactly as discussed. Throughout every phase—whether it was engineering plans, permits, or construction—Moti was consistently involved, guiding us through the process. He was communicative, receptive to new ideas and changes along the way, and clearly focused on ensuring we would be completely satisfied with the end result. Even during the final walkthrough, Moti was proactive—explaining that small cracks might appear in the ceiling as the house naturally settles after the structural changes, and assuring us that if anything came up within the next 6–12 months, they would return and address it at no cost. That level of accountability and care is rare! In summary, if you’re looking for a trustworthy, skilled, and customer-focused construction company, we wholeheartedly recommend RAA Construction. We’re absolutely thrilled with the outcome of our renovation and will definitely be reaching out to RAA Construction Group for any future construction needs.
From the moment we decided to tear down and rebuild our family home, RAA made the process transparent and reassuring. The quality of workmanship is impeccable, and the project stayed on schedule and on budget throughout.
