January 17, 2025

The peaceful town of Altadena, California, was shaken to its core last week as the Eaton Fire swept through the area, leaving devastation in its wake. Sparked in Eaton Canyon on January 7, 2025, the fire rapidly engulfed 14,117 acres, destroying over 1,900 homes and claiming at least 17 lives. For those of us at Willbii Design and Build, located just a mile from the heart of the affected area, the devastation is not just something we’ve seen on the news—it’s something we’ve felt deeply.

The Scale of the Damage

With over 7,000 structures destroyed, including homes, businesses, and landmarks, Altadena residents now face the daunting challenge of recovery. The flames spread so quickly that many families had mere moments to evacuate, leaving their belongings and memories behind.
