Sunshine Design and Custom Homes
Company History
| "Sunshine Design and Custom Homes specializes in many aspects of new home construction and home improvement in Idyllwild, California. What makes my company unique is attention to detail and one on one customer service. Sunshine is a small company that takes on a limited number of projects. I work mainly by reference, so customer satisfaction is my top priority. I design and build with the client, not just for them. My goal is to satisfy the customer and give them the home of their dreams." |
My name is Brad Rechtfertig, the President and founder of Sunshine Design and Custom Homes Inc. Let me start by telling you a little about myself. I began working in the home building profession at 12 years of age. My parents ran a successful custom home company in the Kansas City area for over 18 years before retiring. I started with manual labor and progressed to learning the various building trades through them, over the next 10 years. By the time I was in college, I worked as a superintendent, with plans to take over the family business.
Change of plans. After earning a degree in business, I became a Police Officer. I worked as an Officer in Kansas for four years when the wild west began to beckon me. I moved to California and worked as an Officer for the San Diego Police Department (SDPD) for another four years. During that time, I continued to work on the side in construction and built two homes of my own. Seeking a change of pace and career, I left the SDPD in 2005.
This is when Sunshine Design and Custom Homes was created. I am a licensed, bonded and insured general contractor. More importantly, I bring Midwest values and integrity to the California construction business.
My approach with construction is different than most contractors. What makes me unique, is that I am a craftsman and specialize in the "design build" method of construction. This means that I design and modify as I go, with the day to day input from the customer. It takes more time and may cost a bit more, but the end product is ideal.
Flexibility, knowledge in every trade, and years of hands-on experience allow me to complete the project correctly. I perform most all of the skilled trades myself and hire only licensed sub-contractors for the remaining trades.
