our process
At RK Smart Homes we can tailor our services to meet your needs. Whether you would like assistance with selecting a site, assistance with design, or you already have approved construction drawings and just need a builder who ‘gets’ sustainability, we can add insight and guide your build in the right direction.
Design & Build Service
While we do offer design only and build only packages, our strength is in seeing a project through from concept to completion. Our holistic approach allows us to oversee every step to ensure that each concept and element of construction works together to achieve the best results for your site, and your lifestyle.
