I have a client that frequently asks me to rewrite texts. They own a bunch of sites that all say basically the same things about their products but they want the sites to seem unique and different from each other. I don't particularly enjoy doing it, but I don't see anything wrong with it (although I'm sure Google would disagree).


If they own copyrights to the original copy from which you started rewriting/reconstructing material, then it's different. Since you basically got the permission to do it from the author, if they are the author.
