Attempting to design and build a home from the ground-up can seem like a daunting task at first. Overwhelmed with the rising cost of land and labor, many today would rather settle by renting or buying a home despite certain drawbacks.

“Many of the homes in Hawaii today have been around for a very long time,” said Xiao “Rui” Xie, owner of RUI Building Supply. “Oftentimes, they reflect a type of design and quality control that is outdated.”

For more than a decade, RUI Building Supply has helped hundreds of prospective homeowners in Hawaii construct their perfect abode. “As a fully functioning home renovation and construction company, we offer a wide range of services including electrical, plumbing and architectural design work,” said Rui. “Instead of having to outsource work from multiple companies, we are like a one-stop shop for all your home needs.”

In recent years, RUI Building Supply has also become a competitive player in the home finishing market. “Although most people know us for building the actual structure of a home, we also are equipped to design and install all the core finishing touches and accents,” said Rui, who regularly takes overseas trips to visit trade shows and special order certain materials. “We have access to some of the most sturdy and expertly crafted cabinets, flooring, light fixtures, mirrors, sinks and more.”

Customers are welcome to visit the company showroom located on Sand Island Access Road to view and select from a plethora of new products and finishing styles.

“Most people would not expect a construction company to offer such a widely curated collection of products like shower doors, toilets and kitchen appliances, but we do,” said Rui. “We like giving our clients lots of options and the ability to customize their homes according to personal preference.”

Going on now, RUI Building Supply’s annual half yearly sale offers a multitude of new finishes at a significant discount. “Right now we are seeing a lot of people choose porcelain tiling or hardwood flooring,” said Rui. “Fortunately, the beautiful weather and landscape of Hawaii allows us to work with almost anything.”
