Building in Trent Woods

Our Craven County service area stays on the south side of the Neuse River, including Trent Woods. Trent Woods borders the Trent River beside New Bern. A river setting does not mean every house faces the water, and where the house sits on the lot can change what needs attention. Look at which side dries last after rain and where the ground is often damp. Notice whether the sheltered back door works as well as the front one when someone is carrying groceries or walking in with muddy shoes.

It helps to describe the problem in terms of how the house is used. Is the shower awkward to step into, or is the space around the door the bigger issue? Is the kitchen too small, or do the cabinets make it hard to get to what you need? For an addition, consider whether the existing rooms will gain or lose light and what a person will see on entering the new room.

River humidity and long rains can show up in old framing even if the finish looks fine. Alan takes the affected wall back to the studs to see how it has held up. When rot is present, the crew deals with it before fitting the new work. That care matters through storm season, whether the job is a single room or an exterior repair.

We live in a house on the beach which hadn’t had any remodeling work since it was built 45 years ago. There was some pretty ugly tile and a non functioning whirlpool tub as well as a leaking outer wall window that we knew probably needed replacing. Alan came in and helped us visualize a new/modern look…new plumbing, a new adult sized shower and getting rid of the tub. As with lots of remodels on older homes…behind the walls told a story of dry rotted exterior siding, a window that couldn’t be salvaged…more unexpected work to be done before any remodel. A bit distressed due to rising costs and repairs, Alan worked with us to contain costs and deliver a beautiful full master bath remodel…on budget. He has a great team and expert crafts people to handle plumbing and electrical work. Upon completion my wife asked me if I would use Alan again…my answer was an unequivocal yes…without reservation.

I can honestly say working with AB Building and Remodeling has been one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with a contractor. From start to finish, I felt completely comfortable. Their communication was excellent, they paid close attention to detail, and they made sure my home was always functional during the repair process. They were on time, quick, and cleaned up after themselves every day. The quality of their work was exceptional. I had water damage to my floor that required the subfloor to be replaced and new flooring laid—and they installed it even better than the first time. Now I realize just how bad it was before! I can’t say enough positive things about my experience. Without a doubt, I’ll be calling AB Building for my next project.

After calling AB Building and Remodeling late on a Friday, Alan got back to me almost immediately. Then on Saturday, next day, he had his worker come to the house to assess what the job would include and determine if they could do the job, which of course they could. Kim Carter performed all the work required for my Garage Door and Side Door Metal Trim replacement due to corrosion/age. He removed and reinstalled vinyl siding around the doors to get access he needed, removed all the metal trim around the doors and replaced the J channel and metal trim. As with any project we had a couple of surprises once the metal trim was removed. We discovered the Garage Side Door needed a new Threshold and the lower outside facing parts of the door had rotted away so after a quick trip to Lowes he repaired those issues as well. Very happy with the work done and feel very confident that I won't have to worry about either door trim for years to come. Thanks Alan and Kim.
