Elcano Construction Story
At Elcano Construction, our story began with a simple belief: that every home should reflect the unique vision and lifestyle of the people who live in it. Founded as a small family contracting firm, we started with a handful of dedicated professionals, a passion for craftsmanship, and a commitment to personalized service. From day one, our focus was on quality over quantity—taking on a select number of design-driven custom renovation and remodeling projects to ensure our clients received the attention and detail they deserved.
As word spread and our reputation grew, so did our team and our capabilities. Clients returned to us time and again, not just for our skilled work, but because they trusted our process, appreciated our transparency, and felt heard throughout every step of their projects. This trust became the foundation on which we expanded.

In the wake of the Palisades and Eaton Fires, we felt the need to evolve from a niche contractor with a focus on Los Angeles heritage architecture into a comprehensive, full-service homebuilding company.
Today, we offer a complete range of residential construction services, from architectural design and planning to turnkey home builds. Whether our clients are starting from the ground up or reimagining an existing space, our in-house team of designers, project managers, and skilled tradespeople collaborate to deliver exceptional results with efficiency and care.
What sets us apart is our ability to combine the personalized service of our boutique roots with the resources and scale of a larger firm. We haven’t lost sight of where we started - and we bring that same level of personal attention and pride to every project, no matter the size. Our clients still work directly with a dedicated project lead who guides them from initial concept through final walk-through, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience.
We are deeply proud of the homes we build and the relationships we forge along the way. Many of our projects come from referrals and repeat clients - proof that our commitment to integrity, craftsmanship, and customer satisfaction resonates long after the last nail is driven.
As we continue to grow, our mission remains the same: to build California homes that stand the test of time and bring our clients’ visions to life. We are honored to be trusted with that responsibility and excited to keep raising the bar in residential construction.

"I have had the pleasure of working with Stefano and his team and have been thoroughly impressed with their operation, start to finish, top to bottom. Excellent communication, fast response times, a wide range of skill sets and most importantly, top-notch workman-ship & a finished product. Just a real talent and a breath of fresh air, in an industry that is filled with mediocrity. Frankly a 5-star rating does not do your operation proper justice! . Thank you, Stefano & Elcano for being truly exceptional! Keep up the great work!"
