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."

In order to understand the needs and expectations of our customers, we take great care to work and communicate with every customer in a professional manner.

"The brothers were very professional. They were easy to work with, listened, asked the right questions, made sure all permitting details were taken care of, and then took my design ideas (as well as my old deck-removal was included in the estimate) and made my vision happen under budget. I couldn't be happier with my new deck! Communication during the project was overall very good. They showed up as promised every day, came prepared, dealt with the mud on the hill they were working on, cleaned up, and even apologized for the muddy mess due to 4" of rain that week!! From bid acceptance to completion was about two weeks, but only due to the rain and an inspection delay. I plan to hire them again for a project or two next year, and highly recommend McGreal Brothers LLC."

"I am extremely pleased with the repair of my 45-year old deck and steep wooden staircase from Ted Brown, the Deck Doctor. Ted was quickly responsive in getting me a reasonable work estimate. He began the work quickly, replacing damaged wood while maintaining original deck to keep my costs down where feasible. He was honest, personable and helpfully communicative. He and his assistant worked quickly and provided a thorough clean up each day. I highly recommend him. "

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Using a steel frame may raise the value of your home. Steel is more heat resistant, has better longevity, and doesn’t need any upkeep compared to traditional wood. You can also customize a steel build a little easier than other materials like brick, concrete, and vinyl—which have trouble bending and adapting to renovations.

To calculate the number of linear feet of baseboard you’ll need, measure the length of each wall of the room you’re installing them in as close to the floor as possible, rounding up to the next full linear foot. If it’s your first DIY molding job, having a few extra feet on hand for miscuts is a good idea.

Yes, using certified lumber and engineered wood products for reduced environmental impact.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.

You should avoid drilling or cutting into load-bearing beams because removing material will weaken it and increase the risk of structural damage or even collapse. If you do need to drill into a load-bearing beam, speak with a structural engineer first to discuss where it’s safest to drill and the width and depth of the bit that’s safe to use.
