What our clients say
“Darrell is very responsive and professional, his crew is extremely friendly and responsible. They started the project on time, and finished on time. When we had concerns about using parts of boards instead of full length boards they changed them out.”
Deck Construction · May 2021
“Very professional. Took time from their very busy schedule to give me an estimate within 24 hours, replaced several panels on my exterior house that had dry rot, did a beautiful job. Would absolutely hire them in the future if needed and recommend them to others!”

Frequently asked questions
Rescue homeowner questions
Common questions about construction projects in El Dorado County
Building permits for Rescue properties are issued by El Dorado County Building Department. Foundation, framing, roofing, and siding permits typically process in 2-4 weeks. Agricultural buildings over 120 square feet require permits, and equestrian structures may need additional review. We coordinate all permit applications, engineering, and inspections for your rural property.
Foundation stabilization projects average 1-3 weeks depending on soil conditions and access. Barn and shop framing takes 2-4 weeks for typical structures. Roofing replacement runs 4-8 days for main homes, plus 1-3 days per outbuilding. Weather and rural access considerations may extend timelines during winter months.
Rescue is predominantly rural with minimal HOA oversight, though some newer subdivisions have architectural committees. Most properties have flexibility for barns, shops, and agricultural structures. All work must meet El Dorado County building codes and setback requirements for wells, septic systems, and property lines.
Rescue ranges from Moderate to High Fire Hazard Severity Zones depending on location and vegetation. We install Class A fire-rated roofing, ember-resistant eaves and vents, and ignition-resistant siding materials. Properties with wooden structures benefit from fire-hardened construction methods and defensible space planning around buildings.
We provide financing options for foundation, roofing, framing, and siding projects on Rescue properties. Approved contractor for major home improvement lenders with flexible terms. PACE financing available for fire hardening and energy efficiency improvements. Agricultural building projects may qualify for special rural property financing. Free estimates include all financing options.
