"⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Work and Incredible Value! We recently had our entire shingle roof replaced by K and M Construction, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the very first consultation to the final cleanup, their team was professional, punctual, and transparent about every step of the process. The installation crew was hardworking and efficient, completing the entire project on schedule without cutting any corners. The craftsmanship is top-notch, and our new roof looks fantastic—giving our home a complete visual upgrade while offering great peace of mind. To top it all off, their cleanup was so thorough that you wouldn't even know construction crews had been there, leaving not a single stray nail or piece of debris behind. If you are looking for reliable, high-quality roofing work from a team you can genuinely trust, look no further than K and M Construction. Highly recommended!"

"If I could give more stars I would! Mark installed a beautiful wood tongue and groove ceiling for us. Performed kitchen tear out and prepared it for new cabinets and appliances, painted cathedral living room and kitchen. and repaired our gutters. We were extremely pleased with his work. He'll be coming back to work on floor support when our new garage doors arrive and to install a new front door. He's very reliable, professional and priced reasonably."

"We initially called Mr Hargrove in August for an estimate on painting of the exterior trim, gutters, and around windows and doors, etc. on our two story brick house.  We were very impressed with his punctual call return and his punctual arrival for an estimate.  We needed the house pressure washed and scraped all around as the house had been neglected by the previous owners and needed serious work.  We liked his plan and his estimate and we decided on the spot to hire him and his company as there were many other things that were also going to be needed and we thought "this was our guy for anything that we need"  His crew showed up on the date and time specified and went to work immediately washing and scraping the exterior of the house.  They also had to remove all the storm windows for proper scraping and painting.  It was pretty hot, but his guys showed up every day and did a fantastic job.  We were and still are VERY impressed with the job they did and would hire them again in a minute!  During one particular nasty rain storm we noticed a serious leak in a couple of rooms and told James about it and he went right up on the roof and found where it had leaked and within the next few days, he had put on a new roof on that part of the house and it has not leaked since!  And the new shutters they installed look great!!  We have also had two of our neighbors stop by commenting on how good our house looks and wanted to know who did it and we happily gave them his number!  We are new to this area and we feel very fortunate to have found James Hargrove and his home improvement company and definitely plan on using them again!!

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."

"I hired this contractor to do a complete, full-house interior remodel based on several excellent reviews from prior customers, and he and his team exceeded all of our expectations. In addition to being highly skilled, he was professional, dependable, reasonable on costs, patient, and a pleasure to work with. Best of all, he and his team did excellent quality work. He also made a number of useful recommendations to enhance the overall look of our finished project. We consider ourselves lucky to have found HTR Interiors and would hire this contractor again without any hesitation. A real find in the interior remodeling field."

Home Building FAQs, answered by experts

You should watch for visible water stains or active seepage in your basement, which point to poor drainage for Franklin's mountainous terrain. Check for sticking doors and misaligned windows caused by shifting clay soils. Inspect your roof for daylight gaps or ceiling stains from winter ice dams. Soft spots on your deck also signal that previous home building used materials unsuited for the high local humidity and heavy rainfall.

Helpful?

Start by clearing autumn leaves from your gutters to prevent winter ice dams. Inspect and replace weatherstripping around doors and windows to block moisture. You should also check that your crawl space vents remain clear after heavy summer storms. Always hire a licensed contractor for structural repairs or major home building projects in NC, as local regulations require professional expertise to ensure your property remains safe and secure.

Helpful?

Upgrading your insulation and air sealing dramatically improves thermal comfort during cold mountain winters. Proper crawl space encapsulation and ventilation systems control high summer humidity and improve indoor air quality. Adding covered porches or decks extends your usable living space into the beautiful natural surroundings. Additionally, completing home building projects like accessible doorways and single-floor layouts allows residents to comfortably age in place throughout Franklin.

Helpful?

Sloped lots in Franklin require multi-story or split-level designs that work with the natural terrain. Builders position garages and entryways based on drainage patterns before focusing on aesthetic preferences. Local home building incorporates mountain vernacular styles, like metal roofs and covered porches, to manage heavy rainfall while looking beautiful. Designers also orient large windows to maximize forest views while strictly adhering to state energy efficiency standards.

Helpful?

Thorough site preparation for variable clay and rocky soils is the most critical factor for foundation stability. Proper moisture management, including foundation waterproofing and crawl space control, protects against the heavy annual rainfall in NC. Successful home building also requires installing resilient concrete and masonry materials to withstand repeated winter freeze-thaw cycles. Finally, correctly sizing and placing your private septic system ensures long-term habitability for rural properties.
