About Us
With nearly three decades of experience, Martin Construction Company has established itself as a premiere custom home builder in Los Angeles.
We believe that building a beautiful home is a collaborative process. Working with talented architects and interior designers, founder Philip Posen and his team of project managers and carefully curated subcontractors, are committed to bringing the collective vision to fruition. From the very first meeting to the finished product, our singular goal is to create a seamless, cohesive experience that results in the home our client and design partners dreamed of.
Le Corbusier, the famed French-Swiss architect, said, “The home is the treasure chest of living.” We are guided by this principle at Martin Construction Company, and we strive with each project to create lasting, family treasures in the form of exquisite and beautiful custom-built homes.


Services
During this stage, Martin Construction Company studies the working drawings, value engineers the project, prepares pre-construction cost estimates, and develops a preliminary building schedule. Achieving the desired balance of design and value, and a home that beautifully blends both, is fundamental to the success of each project.
Martin Construction Company builds each of its homes with a unique and comprehensive approach. Careful planning, meticulous organization, elite quality control, and state of the art project and budget management are essential elements of our process. For each project, architects, designers, and homeowners can expect the following:
- Coordinating all aspects of construction
- Full time, on-site project management and supervision
- Detailed project schedule
- Architect, designer, and homeowner decision schedules
- Budget management and value engineering
- Accurate, weekly reporting of budget, committed costs, and cost to complete the project
- Subcontractor, vendor, and supplier management
- Photo journal and site log documenting daily activity, inspections, site visitation, etc.
- Weekly site meetings with relevant architects, designers, and consultants
- Dedicated site meetings with homeowner and/or owner representatives
- Quality control
- Safety control
Martin Construction Company’s dedication to its clients extends beyond the building phase. Written documentation, manufacturer and product manuals, and site reviews will instruct homeowners and/or their representatives on how to operate each and every system in their home.
Warranty and repair work will always receive immediate attention. Additionally, Martin Construction Company will schedule a one-year follow up and walkthrough to evaluate wear and tear and any required maintenance.
