Luis Rodriguez owner and founder of RW Construction began working in the construction industry in 2002. In 2018 he founded RW Construction focusing on windows and doors. Over the years customers were left extremely satisfied with his craftmanship and would inquiry about remodeling projects. As time went on we realized that many of our customers had the same complaints of past contractors. From never showing up to asking for advances on work and disappearing half way through. Seeing this common occurrence we decided to start offering interior and exterior remodeling services. With his expertise of over 20 years and the help of his daughter and son in-law they have begun to offer customers quality work they can trust will get done on time and be REALLY WELL done.

"Luis and Raul are great to work with. Iâ ve hired them for multiple large projects. They are talented and provide quality work at a fair price. I will continue to use their services. In the construction business it can be difficult to find contractors you can trust. They are men of their word and want to make sure their clients are happy and satisfied with their work."

"Once he was able to fit us into his schedule, his crew showed up promptly and worked til the job was complete. Joe was patient and helpful in examining our options for insulation, doors and windows and his price was fair. I had a couple change orders, which he graciously fit in ... small sliding door to a loft. His crew worked like a well-oiled machine and did a great job on everything. Windows were placed exactly as we asked and the steel interior turned out great. Thank you Cover's Construction!"

Barndominium Builders questions, answered by experts

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.

The term “cottage” is subjective, so there’s no rigid definition, but it generally refers to a small home with simple and purposeful architecture that embraces nature and focuses on charm over everything else. Cottages are typically 1 or 1 1/2-stories tall, usually with gabled roofs, and are built out of natural materials that help make the structure a part of the surrounding nature rather than something that stands out from it. A big part of what makes a cottage a cottage is the decor, which includes natural materials from the nearby area.

A construction-to-permanent loan is the most common type of mortgage used to finance a house teardown and rebuild. These loans include financing for construction costs and convert to a long-term mortgage once construction is complete. Check the terms of the loan closely before beginning work—there are often restrictions requiring you to use licensed contractors for all work.

The longest part of building a custom home is the design phase. It takes multiple professionals and a ton of work to bring your vision for your dream home to life while sticking to a homebuilding budget and also ensuring everything is built to code. Expect the design phase for a custom home build to take six months to a year.

It is a good idea to check in with your local city and state regulations before committing to building a shipping container home no matter where you live. This concept is pretty new across the country, and many places won’t let you build one.

The International Code Council (ICC) offers guidelines for home builders on the safe use of ISO intermodal shipping containers repurposed as building components, which can be helpful to review when planning or designing a shipping container home.
