South Orange County
San Juan Capistrano, CA
San Juan Capistrano has a distinct character all its own. From historic homes near the Mission and Los Rios Historic District to equestrian properties in the Hunt Club, established neighborhoods in San Juan Hills, and custom hillside estates, remodeling here takes more than choosing finishes. It takes an understanding of local soil conditions, coastal climate factors, historic guidelines, and city permitting codes.
Tuscany Builders has served homeowners across South Orange County since 1989. Second-generation owner Dino Presutto brings more than 50 years of hands-on construction experience to remodeling, custom homes, and complex residential projects. Our design-build approach brings planning, design, and construction together under one team, with Dino personally involved in the work.
Whether you're planning a kitchen or whole-home remodel, considering an addition or ADU, building a custom home, or assessing a property that needs substantial reconstruction, the first step is understanding the house and establishing the right plan.
Every home presents different decisions. Older properties may require careful evaluation of existing construction and systems. Larger properties may involve additional site, design, engineering, or permitting considerations. Homes with significant water, structural, or fire-related damage need a clear understanding of existing conditions before the scope of reconstruction can be established.
Dino's approach is to assess the situation, identify priorities, and determine the appropriate next steps before moving into construction. When a project requires additional technical evaluation, he coordinates with the relevant qualified professionals and authorities. The goal is to address the underlying issues, plan the work in the right order, and help homeowners make informed decisions about their property.
