Contracting & Labo

We ship your kit to your build location, but Smiling Woods does not offer contracting or labor. We will provide a Build Manual and will answer any questions you or your contractor may have while assembling the kit.

Unfortunately, we do not offer financing. Most of our customers use a Construction Loan from a trusted lender to acquire financing. We will provide sample engineering plans to secure this loan.

We will work with you to modify the structure to prepare for these areas. However, insulation, electrical, and plumbing are not included in a Smiling Woods kit.

Interior Finishing

We provide detailed plans that outline your desired layout. However, any interior walls, drywall, cabinetry, etc. are not included in a Smiling Woods kit.
