Custom Homes & Coastal Remodeling
Coastal Homes Built To Last By The Sea
KneppKraft is a licensed General Engineering & Building contractor building custom homes and remodels for Southern California’s beach communities, design-build craftsmanship from a contractor who actually understands ocean-front conditions and salt-sea construction methods.
Relaxed luxury, engineered for the coast.
For over 40 years KneppKraft has built and remodeled homes across Orange County and the LA coast. The company started on the water in Long Beach, and the coastal towns from Seal Beach down through Orange County are the day-to-day radius. Design-build is our specialty: we coordinate architects, engineers, and designers so the process stays smooth from concept to completion.
As a referral-based company, we’ve earned a reputation for clean worksites, professional crews, and dependable work, the reasons clients invite us back for their next project.

We build for salt, sun, and sea air
Ocean-front building isn’t the same as building five miles inland. Salt-laden air drives corrosion and concrete spalling; coastal exposure punishes the wrong materials and details. We know which assemblies, fasteners, coatings, and methods hold up, so your home is beautiful and durable in the conditions it actually lives in.
- Corrosion-resistant fasteners & connectors
- Salt-tolerant claddings, coatings & finishes
- Moisture & air-sealing detailing for marine climates
- Concrete & rebar protection against spalling
- Foundation & structural detailing for coastal soils
- Long-term durability planning, not just first cost
