Message from UBuildIt to San Diego Fire Victims:

Our hearts and prayers go out to those who have lost their homes. From personal experience (2003 Cedar Fire); we know what an event like this can do to a family.

The Harris, Witch Creek and Guajito fires have forced many families into making very tough decisions. Rebuild? Who to talk to? How to plan? None of these survivors chose to be in this position. Most know nothing about the construction process and are now searching for rebuilding options.

UBuildIt wishes to help these survivors get back into their homes as soon as possible, by providing them with information and an education that (based on personal experience) will help them get through the public and private bureaucratic challenges that might stall their progress.

UBuildIt specializes in planning and design. Helping our clients establish a budget and maintaining it through the design, permitting, and bidding process. Our emphasis with the San Diego Fire Victims is to help them through these processes with our proven and long established national system. If you are considering rebuilding your home yourself, let us be of service.

UBuildIt-La Mesa is offering 15% off our services to those clients with FEMA paper work, their insurance claim or can provide the address of the property to be cross referenced to the city and county's lists.
