Los Angeles web development for the rebuild, the port and the production office.

The Palisades Fire, which began on January 7, 2025, burned almost 24,000 acres and destroyed an estimated 7,800 structures, according to the city's annual financial report. The same report cites a regional estimate of $4.6 billion to $8.9 billion in lost output from the Palisades and Eaton fires over five years. Rebuilding will run for years, and every homeowner is juggling a builder, an insurer, permits and a temporary address at once. Many are hiring a builder for the first time in their lives, and their questions arrive at night, after work, when nobody picks up the phone.

A builder who gives those clients a portal (schedule, photos, documents, change orders, all in one place) replaces a weekly flood of texts with something both sides can check. It also keeps a record, and in rebuild work the record settles disputes. That is a custom application, not a page on a website.

The port side of the economy has its own version. The Port of Los Angeles leads the nation in container volume, and the importers, brokers and truckers around it run on tracking, quoting and paperwork. We built Blue Water Shipping's maritime operations platform, so this is familiar ground. Custom applications start from $575, depending on complexity, and the first version is scoped narrowly enough to ship. Integrations with the accounting or ERP software already in place come first, because nobody wants to type the same shipment twice.
