We work with the areas’s finest Architects and Interior Designers. We are a licensed, bonded, and insured company that specializes in developing residential homes or general contracting any structure. We do use subcontractors on our jobs who are all licensed and insured. We give free estimates on all jobs. We also specialize in trades such as: fencing, finish carpentry, framing, painting, tile work, and any repair work needed.

"When looking for a custom home builder in the Redding area I came across Hughes Construction. The one thing that made me call him was other reviews on how well Shane communicates. I can say that I have had a great experience with Shane and that of all the subs that I have contacted for my custom home Shane was the best communicator of them all. It’s nice to have a contractor that wants your business enough that they keep you up to date with where they are in the bidding process. If anyone reading this is having problems staying in the loop with their contractor I suggest you call Hughes construction. You won’t be disappointed."

"Slow. I was quoted a price apparently that didn’t include materials. He showed up unprepared to do the work and had to get materials. That took hours when he said 30 minutes. The guy is scatter brained."

Owned and operated, local contractor that specializes in electrical, plumbing, windows, doors, carpentry, flooring, custom closets, patio covers, remodels and more! I have been working in the construction industry for over 20 years. We work closely with our customers to provide excellent service. What can we build for you today?

"First let me say Thank you. My bathroom came out perfect. I replaced the 22 year old tub/shower to a shower, toilet, vanity, light fixtures, removed the medicine cabinet and making it a wall. I also had water damage to a wall that they repaired. I chose to buy my own parts, light fixtures, paint, shower, toilet, vanity, and flooring. They worked with me on what parts, size, and dimensions I would need. There was never a lack of communication either through phone call or text. Very easy to get a hold of and if I left a message a return call or text was quickly returned. They listened to what I wanted and stayed within my budget. The job was completed in the time they told me it would take, which I felt was timely. Everyone was very nice, friendly and respectful. They were upfront about everything, what I was quoted was on target, and no surprises at the end when it came time to pay. This was my first time having a remodel done and I got what I asked for. My experience was positive and when it comes time for the second bathroom and the house flooring to be done I will be using them again. I would highly recommend using Infinity Construction."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

The maximum size of a tiny home you can move depends on your state transportation guidelines, but the rule of thumb is a maximum of 400 square feet. However, as long as it falls within the local limits for traveling on public roadways, you should be good to hit the road.

Yes, home builders need to be licensed in every state and municipality in the country. The specific license required varies based on the location and the work, but most states require that the builder hold a general contractor’s license at minimum. Some states and cities also require that plumbing, electrical, roofing, and sewage system construction require individual licenses, in which case the builder may subcontract the work. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that the builder you’re considering holds all the proper licenses.

Most cottages are around 1,000 square feet, making them smaller than most other styles. However, cottages are defined more by their decor and architectural focus on simplicity, functionality, and a connection to nature than they are by a rigid square footage or floor plan. While cottages are defined more by their charm and appearance than size, the smaller footprint does help maximize the comfort and charm, and it keeps the focus on connection to nature and family.

This answer varies based on where you are, but most states require that all homes are greater than 320 square feet. Remember that four walls are not the only requirements—windows, closet space, minimal ceiling heights, and indoor air quality are also factors. Each state and municipality differs, though, and as some don’t consider tiny homes permanent shelters, you’ll need to check to ensure you aren’t violating any local or state laws with your build.

A construction lien results from unpaid services. For instance, if a homeowner hires a contractor to do a large renovation on their home and then fails to pay for the services and materials, the contractor can take out a lien on the property. This lien is a legal claim against the property for the amount of money owed. If the homeowner does not pay their debt, the lien may stay on the title until the homeowner tries to sell and cannot do so until the title is cleared.
