Projects
Projects we can help with











What Charlotte homes deal with
Hot, humid summers and red clay soil shape most projects here. Many homes sit over crawl spaces, where humidity can lead to mold, sagging floors and high energy bills. Big hardwoods and pines drop limbs in thunderstorms and the remnants of tropical systems. Hugo in 1989 and Helene in 2024 both brought down trees across the region. Termites and wood rot on trim and decks are routine maintenance items.
Permits: one county office for most of Mecklenburg
Unlike most metros, Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement issues building permits and inspections for Charlotte *and* the county's towns: Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, Matthews, Mint Hill and Pineville. Zoning still comes from your town. Outside Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, Union, Iredell and Gaston counties and York County, SC each run their own processes.
