Selecting Materials for Your Coto de Caza Home
Your project starts at our Rancho Santa Margarita showroom, 22312 El Paseo, Suite I. Natural stone, quartzite, porcelain, custom cabinet doors, flooring, and hardware are there to compare in person. No appointment is needed; see the showroom page for hours.
Bring photos of your rooms, any house plans, your appliance list, and your association’s architectural guidelines. Those rules shape what we can design, so we want them early.

More About Our Coto de Caza Work
A County Community Inside the Gate
Coto de Caza has never been a city. OC LAFCO groups it with Ladera Ranch, Las Flores, and Rancho Mission Viejo as South County unincorporated communities, so your permit comes from OC Development Services. The county also holds Coto de Caza Planning Advisory Committee meetings on Site Development Permits. For your kitchen or bath, we apply through myOCeServices and book the inspections; our permit guide explains city vs. county rules.
Your Association Comes First
County staff stated in 2023 that the county does no architectural review. For homes under the CZ Master Association or Los Ranchos Estates, that review sits with the association. So we ask for your association’s rules at the start and plan the design around them.
Los Ranchos Estates
Los Ranchos Estates covers 355 acres with 75 large custom homes and its own HOA. No two houses are alike, so we measure everything at the home visit and design cabinets and layouts to fit your rooms, not a standard plan.
Our Coto de Caza Remodeling Process
We begin with a free discovery call of about 15 minutes, on the phone or Zoom, and a free home visit of about an hour to measure. Then you choose materials, approve a 3D design, and receive one written proposal. We handle the county permit, set up gate access with you, and keep to the agreed schedule. Read about all eight steps on our remodeling process page.
Materials & Craftsmanship for Coto de Caza Homes
We work with suppliers such as MSI Surfaces, Arizona Tile, HanStone, Pental Quartz, and Johnson Hardwood, and cabinet lines such as Dura Supreme and Bellmont. Fully custom cabinet builds are an option too. You get a one-year workmanship warranty from us, plus manufacturer warranties on what you choose.
Where We Work In and Around Coto de Caza
We work throughout Coto de Caza, including Los Ranchos Estates, the neighborhoods around the 36-hole golf course, Stonecliffe, and Wagon Wheel. Permits go through OC Development Services and the myOCeServices portal. Architectural review goes through the CZ Master Association or your own HOA, so we collect those rules before design approval.
