"David replaced all of our 3 levels of decks and rails with composite . Also redid our entire screened porch. David is highly skilled, very professional, neat and on time. I am a perfectionist and will definitely use him again. His rates are quite reasonable. Also, Hannah is delightful, and both are a pleasure to work with."

We called them and asked them to build a custom deck.  He came out and started our deck immediately and added benches and different levels.  He took our design and added to it and made our dream deck better that we could have imagined.

The price was better than we thought it would be.

It was a great experience and we highly recommend them if your looking for a great design and great prices.



Sincerely


The McKinneys

"Jason did an amazing job with our project. We live on the sound and kill Devil Hills and our insurance company requested. We replace some of the cedar shingles due to wind/rain damage. He worked with us on the quote and was able to accomplish the job in a timely manner. We appreciated him sending pictures as he worked to keep us updated on the progress. This is a second home for us so we were not on site but communication was very easy with him. Highly recommend."

"Buck Baker and his brother in law are the best in the area!!! I found Service Magic quite by accident on the internet. I entered the required information in the application with my phone number and my phone rang a few minutes after I entered the information. IT WAS BUCK!! He arrived at my house within the hour. did the estimates and measuring and started on my floor within 2 days (he had the following day to go pick up all the flooring he needed) and was finished in 3 days! I showed him what I wanted on the computer and found the most wonderful resilient flooring. He and Ed are absolutely the best!"

"I'd like to start by saying that the finished product looks pretty good but the process to get there was a chore.
The major problems were:
1. Just before we signed the contract, the owner of Contour Construction had verbally promised that steps would be taken to protect our home during demolition/construction; specifically plastic put up to minimize dust migrating to other rooms and existing hardwood floors would be protected from damage.  Neither of those were done.  Consequently, our entire house was full of dust and the existing hardwood floors were severly damaged. As of today there has been no contact from the owner to resolve the issue of the damaged floors.  He just left them as is.  
 2. Another unfulfilled promise was that someone would be on the site to supervise the individual workers.  That did not happen either.  The owner was good about letting us know when someone was coming to the house but they would arrive alone and unsupervised. Many times the work was done well. However, there were instances where the work had to be redone. This could have been avoided if there was someone there to oversee the quality of the work.  Plus, since the owner was rarely on-site during the renovation he had to rely upon the word of his worker(s) who, on a couple of  occasions had deliberately misinformed him avoid admitting mistakes! 
3. The contracted time period was listed as 3-4 weeks, starting July 1.  The last worker left the second week of September;  that's 10 weeks!  Much of that was the result of poor planning and work having to be redone.
In summary the owner of this company probably considered me overly demanding but I wasn't about to ignore shodding workmanship just to avoid "making waves". My philosphy was what would a potential buyer see when s/he looked at the bathroom.  With oversight the work would have been done right the first time and this project could have been completed within the contracted time frame.
Our theory is that Contour Construction had taken on more work that they could handle at the time and that our project was low on their priortiy list.  Again, I believe that  the problems we encountered could have been avoided by first, the owner fulfilling the promises he made and second the work had been supervised by someone who had a committment to quality.
These were our experiences with Contour Construction.  Perhaps someone else would have better luck with them. My suggestion would be get every detail no matter how trivial in writing with no verbal promises as well as being assertive and stopping work immediately if a provision of the contract was not being followed especially workers that are not being supervised.

FAQs for shed, barn or playhouse building service projects in Corolla, NC

Barndominiums cost $50 to $200 per square foot (or $65 to $160 per square foot for finished living areas). You’ll pay even more for a larger barn house. This project costs more than the typical barn construction because you’ll need elements like a kitchen, bathroom, and finished living spaces. Building a barn house is comparable to building an actual home.

A high-quality barn lasts 40 to 60 years when built with robust materials and maintained with dedicated care. Quality construction practices and a strict maintenance schedule ensure that key structural components, such as support posts and roofing, remain effective for more than 60 years. This long lifespan offers homeowners sustained functionality and reliability over time.

The project type determines the construction timeline for a barn. A standard pole barn finishes in six weeks, a traditionally framed or steel-framed barn concludes in four months or more, and a barndominium takes six months or longer due to the extensive design, electrical, plumbing, and finishing details. This schedule ensures each phase is completed efficiently by qualified professionals.

When planning to construct your barn, it's important to review local building codes and zoning regulations. These regulations may include guidelines on building height, property boundaries (setbacks), lot coverage, and easements. Understanding and complying with these requirements helps ensure your barn is built safely and legally and avoids any permitting delays.
