Ready to build back after a wildfire? We are here to help you rebuild smarter, faster, and stronger—with structural design that’s ready for the realities of fire and earthquakes.

Wildfires are devastating—but the rebuild doesn’t have to be. At BORM, we work with homeowner and builders to deliver homes that meet today’s safety standards.

​​

Whether you're rebuilding a single home or an entire neighborhood, we bring expertise that gets you back in your home. 

Build Smart: Choose the Right Materials

The materials you choose matter—especially in areas that are fire-prone, flood zones or high seismic.  

​

We help you weigh the pros and cons:

  • Durability – Resistance to moisture, pests, and wear over time

  • Stability – How the structure handles earthquakes

  • Fire performance – How each material responds to extreme heat

  • Insurance – How your choices may impact coverage and premiums

​

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. We work with your team to make smart decisions that match your goals and budget.

Build Fast: Stay on Schedule
​

Speed matters—especially when you're living in temporary housing or trying to get families back in their homes.

​

We understand how to design for fast construction. From clear documentation to coordination with your builder and city inspectors, we keep things moving. Because delays don’t just cost money—they wear people down.

Build Strong: Think Beyond

Fire, floods, and earthquakes all pose serious risks to homes and communities.

 

Every rebuild must meet structural standards that account for these hazards and protect against future threats.

​

We design with resilience in mind—so your home stays strong, stable, and ready for whatever challenges lie ahead.

The BORM Difference: A Team That’s Responsive

Rebuilding takes a team. We show up, communicate clearly, and stay flexible as things change.

 

Whether you're coordinating with your architect, general contractor, or a city inspector, you can count on us to be there when you need answers.
