When it comes to renovations, not everything is as straightforward as it seems. At Adkins Building & Construction, we often say that sorting out other people’s messes is part of the job. Acting as a general contractor means being prepared for surprises — and sometimes those surprises hide behind the walls.
What We Find During Renovations
It’s not unusual for us to open up a wall or floor and uncover work that wasn’t done properly in the past. From outdated wiring to makeshift plumbing solutions, or even strange structural choices, these hidden issues are more common than most homeowners realize.
The good news? Identifying these problems early allows us to fix them the right way, ensuring the home is safer, stronger, and built to last.
Why a General Contractor Matters
This is where having an experienced general contractor makes all the difference. We don’t just cover up problems — we correct them. Our team:
- Inspects thoroughly during demolition and construction phases.
- Identifies risks that could affect safety or long-term performance.
- Implements lasting fixes, not just cosmetic solutions.
This way, when a renovation is complete, homeowners can feel confident that their space isn’t just beautiful but also structurally sound.
