"John Adams was coureous, professional, and did an excellent job. He was able to succefully get stains out of hard surfaces such as concrete as well as more fragile areas around doors and windows.
I called 101 Building Services about 2 weeks ago. I reside on the far edge of their area of service. John said he would have to call me back to find a convenient time to travel for our task. We were in no hurry, so that was fine. The 2 weeks delay is the only reason I graded 101 as a "B" in responsiveness. The day of service he arrived right on time.
We were pleased with the results. Excellent! I will certainly plan to use his services in the future.

"The pressure washing was complete and thorough. It was neither rushed nor haphazard. Inclement weather required that Mike stand down for several days, but at the first opportunity he and his crew of five experienced painters arrived on the job. This rather surprised me because on five different house painting occasions (here and elsewhere) one painter and his assistant took several days, even weeks to do the job. This large crew began and completed the job in one day. One day!
Anyway, this crew of five immediately fell to, with some painting door trim, some painting window trim, some painting the tall wooden chimney and the others on the house proper. I can think of several words to describe these craftsmen. They all were personable, neat, workman-like, courteous, and appeared to be having fun. In a word they were gentlemen.
A note about our house. It is a pseudo log cabin common in this area of the North Carolina mountains. The logs consist of rectangular 6"x12" pine painted grey and separated by a 3" white "plastic" chinking material. This repetitive separation of colors made their job difficult and slow. Use of painter's tape was inappropriate so every color separation had to be accomplished by hand... and this was done magnificently. Their thoroughness can be illustrated by their treatment of the chinking. Since its original application in the late 90's it had never been painted. So imagine our surprise when Mike and the crew painted the chinking with a brilliant white concrete stain. Made it look like new, added hours to their job and beauty to our home.
I called Mike for an estimate and he responded promptly. Since I am wheelchair-bound my son went over what we needed. Not only did this estimate include the work, but all paint and all other materials. After reviewing the job an estimate was provided the same day. It was several hundreds of dollars cheaper than the next lowest estimate. Incidentally, door weather stripping was repairable and paintable, however Mike chose to replace it with new. This was not included in his original estimate, but he refused to accept additional compensation. He stuck to his initial estimate--to the penny.
After accepting the estimate we were placed on Mikes work schedule. He called before arriving for pressure washing and painting As stated rainy weather delayed painting, but this was a necessary delay. There is no complaint about responsiveness or punctuality. Mike responded promptly and came when he said he would. Can't ask for better than that.
As to quality of work, it is superb. I am unable to view the entire house, but three highly critical individuals have gone over every square foot. These are my wife, my son and his wife. All were extremely pleased. And believe me, if my wife and daughter-in-law aren't happy, no one is happy. They found no fault with anything. No trampled flowers. No missed spots. No sloppy work.. And very important, a complete and proper clean up. My wife says that the crew seemed to do their best to please and that the house looks better than it did when new.
In short, these guys were complete professionals. Mike showed his trustworthiness and I would feel no qualms about referring him to anyone. We have nothing but compliments for Mike's Painting and Pressure Washing.

"Chester arrived on time with his crew. They had the entire area prepped and ready to pour the concrete by early afternoon. The project was completed by around 6 p.m. We were told about the curing process, such as when our dogs could walk on the new area and when the grill could be moved.
We are very pleased with the end results and will always recommend this company to others needing concrete work.

Enclosing a carport essentially turns it into a garage. You’ll start by framing and finishing exterior walls, then add a garage door (averaging $1,200), windows, and wiring for lights or outlets.
Plan for site prep and, if needed, a thicker slab to handle the added weight. Once the walls are up, insulation, drywall, and exterior siding create a secure, weather-tight space that protects vehicles and gear year-round.
A well-built carport may not add a huge dollar figure to an appraisal, but it can boost buyer appeal. Covered parking protects vehicles and lawn equipment, sharpens curb appeal, and fills what might otherwise be an empty driveway space. If the carport matches your home’s style and stays in good repair, it can make the property more attractive and competitive when you decide to sell.
Most cities and counties require a building permit for a new carport. Fees range from $60 to $800, depending on local codes and the size of the structure. Getting the permit upfront ensures the carport meets zoning rules and HOA guidelines, protecting you from fines or expensive retrofits later. Check with your building department—or ask your contractor—before ordering materials or scheduling installation.
A poured concrete slab is the gold standard for carport foundations. Concrete delivers superior load-bearing strength, keeps posts level, and resists shifting in freeze-thaw conditions. While gravel, dirt, or permeable pavers cost less upfront, they can’t match concrete’s long-term stability, especially if you might convert the carport into a garage later. Investing in a slab now can save money and hassle down the road.
Pre-made kits start at $300 and bundle all the required parts—sometimes installation, too—making them the most budget-friendly option. Custom carports cost more ($12 to $40 per square foot plus labor) but let you match the design, size, and finishes to your home.
If price and quick setup top your list, go with a kit. If you have a tricky layout or want a seamless aesthetic, investing in a custom build is worth the premium.
