Services
At Richwood, we specialize in custom new home construction and residential building, managing every phase from site planning and lot development to final delivery. Our team expertly executes spacious home additions and accessory structures, including detached garages, pool houses, ADUs, and in-law suites, designed to seamlessly expand your functional square footage. Whether you require a whole-house renovation, gut remodel, or specific structural alterations, we deliver superior craftsmanship and project management for all your general contracting needs.
Single Family Construction
Building a custom home starts long before the foundation is poured. We handle the complete vertical construction process while managing the complexities of site development. From navigating limiting zones and septic requirements to grading and utility connections, we ensure the land is prepped correctly for your investment. With experience delivering over 150 homes, we guide you through every phase—coordinating the site work, managing the trades, and executing the build—to take you from a raw lot to a finished, move-in-ready home.
Additions & Accessory Structures
Expand your home's potential with Richwood’s custom residential additions, delivering seamless second-story extensions, in-law suites, and sunrooms that blend perfectly with your existing architecture. Beyond the main house, we construct durable accessory structures such as detached garages, workshops, and pole barns to maximize your property's utility. Whether you need increased square footage or a specialized outbuilding, our team manages the entire process from foundation to finish.
Remodel
Richwood transforms existing spaces through comprehensive whole-home renovations and gut remodels, modernizing dated interiors while preserving architectural integrity. We handle complex structural alterations, kitchen and bath remodeling, and basement finishing, ensuring every detail meets current building codes and design standards. From concept to completion, our general contracting team revitalizes your property, increasing both its functional layout and market value.
