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."

Owner operated. Uses subs for labor & large jobs. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. No service charges. May contact through email.

"Andy's crew is very professional and did a great job. My home was difficult to get drywall into. They carried each sheet upstairs. Walls finished very well. Dedicated spray equipment created smooth application of knock down texture. Ceilings Looks great. No damage. No surprises. Priced right, but they weren't the cheapest option. On time. No excuses. They protected my property and cleaned up after themselves. As a property manager, I will definitely use Scott's again."

FAQs for addition to existing structure building service projects in Ames, IA

Yes, hidden rooms are legal, as long as they meet all local building regulations. If you sell your house, most states require homeowners to disclose full houseplans, which would include any hidden rooms.

If your secret room is a safe room, it should contain a means of communication aside from a cell phone, such as a shortwave radio. You should also have plenty of drinking water, a portable generator, emergency food supplies, blankets, pillows, flashlights, batteries and a first aid kit.

Any time you update your home’s square footage, you increase its value, but a secret room is a niche feature that doesn't rank high on every buyer’s list of must-haves. Investing your money in remodeling more common living areas like bedrooms, bathrooms, or kitchens will have a higher ROI than adding a secret room. Many secret rooms can act as entertainment spaces (think a game room or wine cellar) or quiet spaces (a library or study), so when building your secret room you may want to consider its versatility for when you’re ready to sell.
