"We worked with Rufino to update the bathrooms and closets in our home master bath/closet and two upstairs bathrooms and closets. He is a True Professional in many ways. He worked with my husband and me to create a modern design that encompassed our ideas. He introduced us to options that are more current in design as well. He created 3D images of our proposed master bathroom and custom closet using our material choices. These images were incredibly helpful in understanding what the finished rooms would look like. His calm demeanor put me at ease with the project and took away my reservations of having our home renovated. Also, having workers in your home can be stressful and Rufino completed the work in the time proposed! Most importantly, I feel Rufino is very trustworthy and was very accessible to me during the project - answering my questions and communicating the next steps in the work being done via cell, text and email. Our bathrooms and closets were finished with detailed workmanship and expert service. He worked hard to make sure we were totally satisfied. They look simply AMAZING. We look forward to more projects with Rufino and Labra Design Build!"

"They showed up early and asked if they could go ahead and get started. They did my roof in one day. They cleaned up extremely well. They guaranteed their work. Made sure all the nails were picked up. Had put tarp all around the house. Removed all lawn ornaments and put them all back when they are done. Did all the extras not necessarily asked for - went the extra mile that we really appreciated. Their crew was absolutely wonderful, cordial. Any questions we had they answered. Brian, the Sales Manager, came out everyday to keep watch. The experience was fabulous. The owner even came out to see how things were going. They worked with our insurance company and went over the house with them. It would be a wonderful world if all companies had this work ethic. I recommended them to my neighbors and 3 of them hired them."

"We worked primarily with Chris who served as both the project manager as well as doing a substantial amount of the work himself.
I chose Yellow Rose initially because of my interaction with him and his willingness and enthusiasm for our project and criteria. Our main stipulation was that all original, 1930s era tile and details be kept intact while fixing extensive mold and water damage and replacing fixtures, as well as addressing some poor workmanship that had been done in the past. What I was most impressed with during the process was Chris's dedication to solving any and all problems and his ability to do so. There was never any point where I was concerned that the work would not get done or would not get done at the quality level I expected. The one big hitch was that removing the original shower/tub fixtures was far more time consuming than anticipated (the plumbing was, apparently, also original!), and while this did add time and cost, Chris got it done. He also spent a substantial amount of time correcting issues with the grouting not being done up to his personal standards - something that, honestly, neither my husband nor I would have ever noticed!
There were a few instances when the timing of the work wasn't ideal, however I have to balance that with all the workers being willing and able to do things like stay late on weekend nights to complete a job that turned out to be more complicated than anticipated. Another big plus for me was that Chris was really respectful of our home and mindful of our aged, skittish cat - which was a huge relief!
I feel I should mention that Chris is quite young, but don't let that put you off or concern you. His professionalism, skill, and dedication shine through during every conversation and interaction - and he's also really entertaining and personable!

Stone homes offer exceptional longevity compared to conventional building methods. These structures resist fire, insects, and severe weather conditions that often damage standard construction. While initial construction costs may exceed those of building methods, stone homes require less frequent repairs and maintenance over their lifespan. Many historic stone structures have remained functional for centuries, demonstrating their remarkable durability and longevity. This extended lifespan can result in lower long-term ownership costs, despite the higher initial investment.
Stone construction provides natural temperature regulation through thermal mass, potentially reducing heating and cooling requirements. As a natural material, stone requires minimal processing compared to manufactured building products. However, quarrying operations can impact local ecosystems, and transporting heavy stone materials creates significant carbon emissions. Homeowners can minimize environmental impact by selecting locally sourced stone and incorporating recycled materials where possible. The exceptional longevity of stone structures often results in a favorable environmental assessment over their lifetime compared to buildings that require frequent replacement.
Stone construction progresses more slowly than standard building methods due to the meticulous nature of stonework. The process requires careful material selection, precise placement, and appropriate curing times for mortar. Weather conditions significantly impact the construction timeline, as masonry work often has to pause during unfavorable conditions. The specialized skills required and the limited availability of experienced stonemasons can also extend project schedules. Homeowners should plan for extended construction timelines when pursuing stone house projects.
Most stone house projects utilize construction financing that converts to permanent mortgages upon completion. While stone construction represents a premium building method, some lenders recognize the inherent value and durability these structures provide. Construction loans require detailed plans, specifications, and contractor estimates for approval. Some regions offer specialized programs for traditional building methods or energy-efficient construction that may apply to stone houses. Consulting with multiple lenders helps identify the most favorable financing options for your specific project.
