Custom Homes

GMU regularly provides design and construction support for custom home sites. We often work directly for the lot owner; other times we’re a consultant to the architect or general contractor. GMU has conducted geotechnical studies for the construction of custom homes in the following communities:

Coto de Caza, Orange County
Covenant Hills, Ladera Ranch
Crystal Cove, Newport Beach
Emerald Bay, Laguna Beach
Irvine Cove, Laguna Beach
Shady Canyon, Irvine

Sites have ranged in size from half-acre to 12 acres, with projects including multi-level basements, subterranean parking, guest houses, swimming pools, retaining walls and elaborate flatwork.
