  • What will the general rebuilding process look like for my home?
    1. Hazardous Material Clearance Complete in 100% of LA county. 2. Debris Removal & Site Clearance This process is well underway. By now you have given permission to the Army Corps of Engineers or opted to hire your own contractor for debris removal and apply for FEMA reimbursement. 3. Planning & Pre-Construction We partner with top-tier architects experienced in rebuilding in Pacific Palisades and Altadena. We highly recommend starting with a feasibility study, which PEID can help coordinate. This step includes: A conceptual design for both interior and exterior architecture A code study to assess lot restrictions A preliminary budget estimate for construction and interiors 4. Permitting & Approvals Once your plans are ready, permits must be obtained before construction begins. PEID has extensive experience working with the City and County of Los Angeles to secure permits, and we collaborate with expediters to streamline the approval process. Given the emergency nature of rebuilding, we anticipate some red tape will be eased to help homeowners rebuild faster. 5. Construction & Project Oversight Once permits are secured, construction begins, with scheduled inspections at key milestones. PEID works exclusively with world-class contractors and will manage the entire process, ensuring seamless communication between architects, builders, and vendors to keep the project on track. 6. Furnishing & Move-In After obtaining your Certificate of Occupancy, it’s time to make your house a home. PEID will source and curate furnishings that fit your style, transforming your rebuilt space into a place where new memories can be made.
  • Can I rebuild the exact same home? What if I want to make changes?
    Yes, but there are some limitations. The City’s expedited rebuilding process allows your home’s footprint to increase by up to 110%. Interior layout and finishes can be changed freely, but major structural modifications (such as adding square footage beyond the limit or building a basement) will require additional approvals, which may add 3-6 months to the permitting timeline.
  • How long will it take to rebuild?
    On average, expect a timeline of 18-24 months: Architecture & Design: 6-8 months Construction & Rebuilding: 16-18 months
  • Are you a licensed architect?
    No, PEID is a full-service interior design firm, but we collaborate with Los Angeles’ top architectural firms and can recommend the best fit for your project. Many architecture firms don’t offer interior design, so bringing PEID in early ensures a seamless integration between your home’s architecture and interior aesthetic. This collaboration allows us to create a cohesive and harmonious design that reflects your personal style and functional needs.
  • What services do you offer at Patrick Ediger Interior Design?
    At Patrick Ediger Interior Design, we specialize in high-end residential interior design for new builds and full-home renovations. Our services include architectural collaboration, interior architecture coordination, construction drawings, material selection, project management, budgeting, procurement, vendor coordination, and sourcing of furniture, lighting, art, and accessories. We manage the installation of all materials and furnishings from start to finish. Additionally, we offer custom furniture design, lighting, and landscape design to create a cohesive and beautiful living space.
  • What should I budget for furnishings?
    Typically, furnishing budgets range from $75–$200 per square foot, covering everything from furniture and rugs to art, lighting, and home goods like bedding and kitchenware. For a personalized estimate, we recommend scheduling a consultation to discuss your specific needs and preferences.
  • How do you charge for your interior design services?
    At PEID, we charge an hourly fee for design and procurement time. Materials and furnishings are sold at our wholesale rate plus a procurement fee, meaning you pay essentially retail pricing while we handle all the legwork—curating selections, managing orders, and coordinating logistics. We provide detailed invoices and regular updates to ensure transparency throughout the project.
  • How can I make sure my builder and contractors are charging fairly?
    To ensure fair pricing from your builder and contractors, we recommend: 1. Getting at least three competitive bids. 2. Consulting with independent estimating firms to verify fair market pricing. 3. Reviewing detailed quotes and contracts to understand the scope of work and associated costs. At PEID, we only work with highly reputable builders we trust.
  • I’m unsure if I can afford interior design services—what should I do?
    PEID specializes in full-home renovations and whole-home furnishing projects, which typically align with properties valued at $3M and up. If your project falls outside this scope, we’re still happy to offer a free consultation to help you take the right first steps and connect you with the best resources for your rebuild.
