How we approach specialty work
Fire restoration and demolition jobs reward the same things our custom homes do: a clear plan, organized trades and someone on site every day checking the work. Our whole home renovations, like the Butternut renovation, have taught us to plan for what turns up once walls come down.
See our commercial portfolio for examples.
How we run a job
One point of contact, start to finish
Plan
We start with a consultation on your goals, budget range, timeline and location. Then we coordinate plans, permits, selections and the schedule so the job is organized before anyone breaks ground.
Build
Frank is on the job every day. We coordinate the crews, track progress and check quality as we go, and you get one point of contact for every question.
Finish
We walk the finished work with you, close out the punch list and stay available after turnover. Past clients say Frank still checks in years later.

What clients say
Homeowners on working with Frank
Frank and his team built our dream home through COVID, and the quality has been exceptional. Years later he still checks in seasonally and stays a call or text away, which is rare and appreciated.
Julie Morris, homeownerFrank handled our kitchen renovation and we could not be happier with the final project. He was on site every day, used skilled craftsmen, and made what could have been stressful feel easy.

FAQ
Specialty Projects: common questions
Do you do commercial construction?
Yes, select commercial build outs. Our commercial work has included high end commercial buildings and medical facilities. Call us with the details and we will tell you if it is a fit.
Do you restore homes after a fire?
Yes. Fire damage restoration is one of our specialty services. We plan the rebuild and coordinate the trades the same way we run a remodel.
Do you handle permits?
Yes. We coordinate permitting and line the plans up with local requirements. Every suburb has its own rules, so we handle that part to keep the job moving.
Do you do the electrical work?
Yes. RL Builders is a licensed electrical contractor, so electrical work is handled in house as part of the project. That keeps coordination tight and the schedule moving.
