What a new home construction project looks like here

Twin Peaks wraps the city's namesake 922-ft summit pair — the 360° viewshed protections constrain second-story additions across the neighborhood.

Because hillside slopes exceed 25% on most parcels, DBI hillside-construction review with geotech + retaining-wall structural is universal.

Premium views drive distinctive contemporary-replacement projects on aging MCM stock.

From empty lot through CFC — SFDBI permit-aware, §311-noticed, soft-story-compliant, SF Better Roofs aligned, inspection-scheduled. In Twin Peaks specifically, mediterranean revival stock means new home construction scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's San Francisco scoping flow factors hillside slope >25% and view-corridor protections (twin peaks summit + 360° sf views) into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
