Tulare County · Licensed CSLB #1160042
General Contractor in Porterville, CA
Porterville sits where the valley floor runs out and the Sierra begins, with Lake Success and the Tule River just east of town and Sequoia National Forest beyond that. Housing in town is a mix of older in-town blocks and later subdivision growth; head east toward Springville and the parcels get larger, steeper and more wooded, and the building considerations change with them.

Building in Porterville
What we build here — and why
Foothill property is our home ground — Sequoia Builders & Remodel is based up Highway 180 in the Fresno County foothills, so sloped lots, long driveways, well and septic and fire-conscious material choices are normal parts of a job for us rather than complications. Licensed CSLB #1160042, free estimates in Porterville and the surrounding foothills.
Decks where the ground moves
On a sloped foothill lot a deck is often the only way to get level, usable outdoor space, and it has to be engineered rather than assembled — piers to competent bearing, posts sized for the height, a properly flashed ledger where it meets the house, and stairs framed to equal risers all the way down.
Fire-conscious exteriors
Properties on the Sierra side of Porterville sit in country where a non-combustible roof covering and well-detailed eaves are worth taking seriously. Metal panel roofing is the common choice. Requirements vary by parcel and hazard zone, so confirm your own with the county before you plan around them.
Additions on rural parcels
Space is rarely the constraint on foothill acreage — septic capacity, water supply and access for material delivery usually are. We check those at the estimate rather than discovering them after the footings are in.
