As this year comes to an end, we wanted to take a look back at some of our favorite projects and on-going work through 2019. It’s been an amazing year with many memorable times had. With the new decade approaching, we are taking this opportunity to reminisce while looking forward to what 2020 will bring us!
The Lofts at Sterling Mill certainly won many of our hearts over the year. With its historical beauty and amazing transformation, we really enjoyed being a part of and watching this building come back to life.
As well as taking on these larger projects, we also thoroughly enjoyed the smaller residential work we completed. From master bathroom remodels, to getting homes market-ready, each job has been unique and fulfilling.
Our continuing work with our Multifamily communities keeps us busy and determined to be the best. Completing pet grooming spas, interior repositions, service work and much more. We thank the Camden and Greystar communities for their trust and faith in us. Expanding our local work into Charlotte, NC with Camden’s South End and Greystar’s Matthews Reserve and Crosstown in Chapel Hill.
We have much hope and excitement for what 2020 will bring. A new decade that will open doors for our continued growth and to provide excellent service and quality work to our present and future customers.
Happy New Year!

You’ve decided it’s time. You’ve researched, planned and you’ve found the best contractor out there (us!). The next step in the process is filing those permits and waiting on their approval.
So why is this step one of the most important in the entire project?
Firstly, any contractor worth hiring will make sure it’s known upfront if getting a permit is required. Secondly, the reason a permit is imperative comes down to these main points:
- It’s the law: Any work that requires a permit is made so by City Ordinance. Failing to get such permits can lead to removal of the project and/or other costly remedies. Always follow the law.
- Saves Money: Work done without permits and inspections is subject to Property Insurers refusal of coverage due to damages etc. You never want to be without insurance in case of the worst happening.
- Protects Property Value: Remember that your home or business is an investment that you don’t want to decrease in value. Not complying with the codes adopted by your community can have a big negative impact on your investment.
- Improves Safety: Your permit is key for the safety and welfare of you, your family & friends or any future owners of the property. Mandatory inspections and checks of the project aid in the contractors work and act as a system of checks to result in the safest project possible.
- Makes Selling Property Easier: When it’s time to sell and move on you’ll be thankful that permit for sure! Nothing slows down the sale of a property more than invalid permits. As an owner, you are required to disclose any repairs or improvements made and if permits and inspections were obtained. Financial institutions will more often than not refuse to finance a purchase without proof of a final inspection, requiring you to tear down the addition, leave it unoccupied or do costly changes and/or repairs.
