"Matt came into my project after a botched job from another contractor that left the job site unfinished and with lots of issues. Matt was referred to me by our trusted plumber who guaranteed that he would take good care of us. Matt and his team exceeded all of my expectations. He promptly came and assessed the project, gave me a very reasonable quote, and helped me every step of the way until the job was completed right. He knew we had been taken advantage of and really went the extra mile to ensure that we felt secure and comfortable with each piece of this project. This company is AMAZING and I would highly recommend them for any size project you have."

At Redfish Building, we pride ourselves on quality in any project we take on. Our business specializes in remodeling of rooms in your home, and in particular bathrooms. We have approximately 50 years combined experience in the residential construction industry. We are a local family run business who enjoy beautifying the homes for our community!

"Redfish Builders has been fantastic to work with for the past eight years. Being that I live primarily out of state it’s very important to have a contractor that I can trust to respond to emergencies for my secondary home in Elon. Steven Way, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and trustworthy on any services I may need done. So much so that he even has a key to let himself and crews into the house to take care of my desires while I’m away. If there are any subcontractors required, Steven is always there overseeing the project. At all times I’m kept informed as to the progress of the job. This is done verbally and with pictures. Upon completion I get a detailed invoice with reasonable pricing. I highly recommend Redfish Builder for any of your renovation needs!"

"Our home required rotten wood to be replaced in a number of areas that were exposed to water runoff from poorly installed gutters. Heath did an initial assessment of the work required but advised it could change once he got behind the rotten boards to see the extent of the damage. Of course there were more replacements needed and the price went up but in the end he and his team did a great job getting the work completed. Would definitely hire H&H again in the future."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

Stick frames, metal frames, or prefabricated concrete frames are included in framing a house, along with creating the framework and space for windows, doors, and entryways. Other aspects of developing a home—like drywall, insulation, windows, doors, and more—are not included in the cost to frame a house.

Building involves setting foundation posts, framing with durable wood, adding roofing support, and protecting from elements with water-resistant finishes.
