We can build any custom home, we can build an addition as simple as adding a new bedroom suite to adding an entire second floor, we can remodel your entire home, your kitchen, your bathroom, finish your basement, and make structural modifications. If you can dream it we can build it. We can build from your plans, or we can do both the design and construction. We offer both residential and commercial construction services as a licensed general contractor. For residential customers we offer an array of services for almost any project. We offer competitive pricing and exceptional quality and customer service. Because we have our own crews to perform much of the work, we have much better control over costs and quality that the competitors simply can’t provide. We also have an entire division dedicated to decks and exterior renovations. We will come to your home or business and provide you with suggestions and an estimate at no cost to you.

"I can't say enough about the excellent work that Carolina Contracting did completely demoing an existing wood deck and constructing a new TimberTech deck. The project was challenging. The deck is sixteen feet off the ground with +20 stairs and extensive lighting. It was done on budget and on time. Scott Dean and his team worked hard every day on the project from early morning to dusk. They are true craftsmen. Communication was exemplary throughout the 3-4 week project."

"Todd, Grant and the entire Galloway Construction team were more than we ever could have hoped. We were renovating a neglected lakeside home that we had just acquired and had no clue as to the obstacles we would encounter. The Galloways were on top of it all. They acted as a real general contractor--handling all planned and unplanned electrical, plumbing and construction. Best of all, they offered us really innovative ideas--from cabinet design to vaulted ceilings and huge, oversized glass doors and a cedar portico--at every step of the way. And they did it all within the budget and timeframe promised. We couldn't be more pleased with the results!"

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

No, beams are the primary load-bearers for flooring or roofing systems, and they distribute the weight of the structure to your foundational supports, while joists bear far less weight and distribute their loads to the beams. Beams are usually thicker and longer, and they have support posts or foundation walls beneath them for support.

The best way to know if your beams still provide adequate support is to consult a structural engineer. Structural beams can crack and even sag over time but may still be structurally sound. Keep an eye out for signs of issues in your home, such as sagging floors or ceilings, major cracks in your ceiling and walls, or signs of water damage around a weight-bearing wall.

Yes, joists are considered structural, as they support the flooring or roofing above them and help distribute the load to the beams, which, in turn, distribute that load to weight-bearing walls or foundational supports directly below them. Joists not only help distribute the load evenly to your beams, but they also provide direct support to the subfloor in flooring systems, which helps reduce creaking and the risk of uneven flooring.

The best way to determine if ceiling cracks are structural is to hire a ceiling contractor to inspect the cracks and provide a professional opinion. That said, you might be able to make an educated guess based on the size and appearance of the crack. Larger cracks, cracks accompanied by sagging or discoloration, and cracks that travel from the ceiling down the walls are all signs of structural issues.
