Serving Westlake Village Since 1994 · Licensed & Insured · Lic. #1027281

Westlake Village was master planned around its lake, and the standard here has always been high. Master Construction has delivered that standard for over 30 years: high end remodels, custom projects, and meticulous HOA maintenance across the Westlake communities on both sides of the county line. Licensed and insured (Lic. #1027281), we build to the level this city expects.

Local Knowledge

High end work without the high end attitude.

Luxury remodeling is about precision: bookmatched stone, indoor outdoor transitions that line up flush, cabinetry that closes like a bank vault. Our crews deliver that level of finish while staying the kind of people you do not mind having in your home for eight weeks. Clear schedules, protected floors, and a jobsite left clean every single day.

High-end finishes are unforgiving, which is why sequencing matters more than speed. Stone, millwork and specialty glazing carry long lead times and no tolerance for a wall that is out of plane, so framing and substrate work has to be right before anything expensive arrives. We order early, verify dimensions against what is actually built rather than what was drawn, and protect finished work until the day we leave.

What We Do

What we build in Westlake Village.

Building Here

Building in the City of Westlake Village.

Westlake Village is a lakeside city of about 8,000 on the Los Angeles County side of the Conejo Valley, with neighborhoods wrapped around the water and the golf course. Nearly every community here has active HOA design review, and city permits run through Westlake Village City Hall. We manage both without drama. For city services and permit information, visit the City of Westlake Village official website.

Two approval tracks run in parallel on most Westlake Village projects, and they are genuinely independent. HOA architectural review governs how a project looks and often meets on a fixed monthly schedule, while the building permit runs through the county rather than City Hall on its own system and timeline. Treating them as one process is the most common way a project here loses a month.

Permits & Plan Check

Permits and plan check in Westlake Village.

Westlake Village contracts building and safety services to the County of Los Angeles, so permits do not run through City Hall. Plan check moved from the county's old BSOP system to EPIC-LA on 1 April 2024, and applications are submitted there.

The county permit office serving the city is in Calabasas, though most business is handled online, and plan check engineers can be reached by scheduled virtual appointment. Anyone expecting a Ventura County process here is in for a surprise, the jurisdiction, the software and the fee schedule are all different.

The county permit office serving the city is in Calabasas, though most business is handled online, and plan check engineers can be reached by scheduled virtual appointment.

Is a Westlake Village project the same as a Ventura County one?

No, and anyone expecting a Ventura County process is in for a surprise. The jurisdiction, the software and the fee schedule are all different.

How long does HOA architectural review take here?

It depends on the meeting calendar more than the project. Committees that meet monthly turn a missed deadline into a four-week delay regardless of how simple the request is. We build the submittal around that calendar rather than around when drawings happen to be finished.

Do lakefront properties have extra requirements?

Often, yes. Work near the water can involve association rules over and above the standard architectural review, particularly anything affecting shoreline, docks or drainage. Confirming what applies to a specific property early avoids designing something that was never going to be approved.

How do you protect a finished home during a remodel?

Floor protection, dust walls with negative air where needed, covered pathways, and a jobsite cleaned at the end of every day rather than the end of the week. On an occupied high-end home that is not a courtesy, it is part of the scope, and we price it that way.
