company specialising in high end custom kitchens, baths and additions working either independently or under the direction
of an architect. We also renovate historical homes with an eye toward maintaining as much original content as possible.
Incorporated in North Carolina since 1994, we have built everything from custom
homes to whole house remodels as well as everything in between, whether small or large. Since 2004 the focus has
been on custom interior upfits most especially in kitchens and master suites ( including those built on as additions).
We also offer home maintenance evaluations, troubleshooting diagnoses, pre-construction consultations, energy efficiency analyses
and systems installations of all types.
We look forward to hearing from you,

Check all exterior walls for peeling or cracked paint. If you decide to repaint your house yourself, you can cut this
job down to size by painting just one or two walls per year. Typically, paint on south and west-facing walls deteriorates
faster and requires more frequent recoating than paint on north or east-facing walls.
Carefully inspect brick or masonry siding for cracks or missing mortar. Repair with fresh mortar or concrete caulk.
Inspect roofing material for cracks and loose or missing shingles and repair as necessary. If you have access to attic
spaces, check underneath the roof for stains that indicate leaks, especially from "flashed" areas in roof valleys and around
chimneys and vent stacks.
Inspect the operation of automatic light timers and motion-detector systems, especially if you plan a vacation.
Prune trees and shrubs so that branches do not come in contact with exterior siding.
Clean and repair cracks in concrete driveways using epoxy patching material. Repair asphalt driveways using asphalt patching
material. Seal asphalt driveways every other year.
Inspect foundation walls for signs of termites --tunnels or dirt bridges. If you suspect termites, contact a professional
exterminator. Learn more about keeping termites away from your home... | |
