Build. Remarkable.

"I just want someone I can trust"

That's what most homeowners say when they come to us. 

They're not looking for the cheapest contractor. 

They're looking for someone who shows up, communicates clearly and makes sure their home, and their life, isn't turned upside down during a renovation. 

At Big Woods Construction, we've built our entire approach around making you feel confident and supported at every step. 

You won't have to chase down updates. 

You won't get vague budgets or shifting timelines. 

And you'll never wonder what's happening next. 

Just clarity, professionalism, and a result you'll love living in. 

We invite you to Build Remarkable with Big Woods Construction.

How Our Process Puts You at Ease

If you've worked with a contractor before, you might expect stress, miscommunication or never knowing what comes next. 

Our process is different. It's clear. It's professional. It works. 

Here's what it looks like: 

1. Start with a Call

We listen. You talk. No sales pitch, just an honest conversation about your goals and what's possible. 

2. Design the Right Solution

After an in-home consultation, our in-house team works with you to turn ideas into plans that fit your space, your life and your budget. 

3. Review a Clear Proposal

We talk about budget all throughout the project, ensuring your goals are aligned with what's possible. We share a comprehensive scope of work aligned to your project goals. 

4. Build with Confidence

Our team handles everything, so you don't have to coordinate a dozen vendors or wonder who's showing up tomorrow. 

5. Love the Result

We finish strong, wrapping up all the details and stand behind our work. 

The goal? A building process that feels exciting, not overwhelming.

Here's what makes us different (and why our clients keep coming back):

Custom Homes

CUSTOM HOMES WITH CHARACTER - BUILT WITH YOU, NOT JUST FOR YOU

Introducing Heritage Homes by Big Woods Construction - where timeless design meets modern, professional project management. 

Building a custom home can feel overwhelming. There are hundreds of decisions and most builders expect you to figure it out all on your own. 

We do things differently. We walk with you through every step, from early design ideas to move-in day. We make the process clear, collaborative and (dare we say) enjoyable. 

With Heritage Homes, we build new homes with old soul  - thoughtful layouts, meaningful details and craftsmanship that reflects your values and vision. ​

Additions

ADD MORE ROOM TO LIVE, WITHOUT LEAVING THE HOME YOU LOVE

Sometimes, moving isn't the right answer. Maybe your family is growing, or you're planning to age in place. Maybe you just need your home to function better - more room to breathe, gather or rest. 

We help homeowners in Waterloo, Cedar Falls and across the Cedar Valley create smart, seamless home additions that feel like they've always belonged. 

From expanded kitchens and great rooms, to in-law suites and primary bedroom additions, we'll help you design the space you need, without starting over somewhere new. 

We handle both the design and construction under one roof, so the process stays clear, collaborative and fully aligned from the start. 

Interior Design 

FINISH STRONG WITH INTERIOR DESIGN THAT PULLS IT

ALL TOGETHER

You've built something beautiful, now let's make it feel like home. 

Our Interior Design services help you cross the finish line with confidence, pulling your space together with furnishings, lighting, window treatments, accessories and thoughtful details that make everything feel cohesive and complete. 

Whether you've just wrapped up a renovation or want help refreshing an existing space, we'll work with your style, your lifestyle and your budget to create rooms that feel effortless and true to you. 

You don't need to have "the eye". That's what we're here for.
