Turnkey Project Showcase · Mount Airy, NC

From a sketch on paper to keys in hand.

The Hurt build started as an idea for a 30 × 50 shop. We took it through design, permits, grading, the slab and the build, and handed back a finished building. One team, one contract, start to finish.

The Turnkey Process

Six stages. One team the whole way.

Most owners juggle a designer, an engineer, a grading crew, a concrete sub and a builder. On this project the owner made the decisions and we handled everything else.

Stage 01: The Sketch & Site Visit

It started with a sketch and a wish list. We walked the site with the owner, talked through how the building would be used, and worked up our site visit estimate before anything was drafted.

Stage 02: Design & Engineering

The sketch became a full set of drawings and 3D views the owner could walk through. Foundation engineering was coordinated in-house, so the design was buildable on day one.

Stage 03: Permits & Planning

We can assist with the permitting process, coordinate with inspectors, and lock in the project schedule and selections up front, so you know what's happening, what to expect, and when each phase is scheduled before ground is broken.

Stage 04: Site Work & Foundation

This is where we're different. Clearing, grading, the foundation and the slab were self-performed by our sister company, Premier Grading & Concrete. No hand-off, no waiting on another contractor.

Stage 05: Framing & Build

Steel frame up, roof and wall panels on, doors and windows set, on a schedule the owner could see week to week, with one project lead answering every question.

Stage 06: Finishes & Keys

Trim, the covered porch and the gravel drive were finished, followed by a final walkthrough and punch list. Then the part we love most: handing over the keys to a building that started as a sketch.

Why Turnkey

One contract. One phone number. One team accountable.

  • Design to Handover

    Design, engineering, permits and construction live under one roof, so nothing falls between contractors.

  • Concrete In-House

    Grading, foundations and flatwork are self-performed by Premier Grading & Concrete. Our own crews, our own schedule.

  • A Schedule You Can See

    Milestones are set before ground breaks, and one project lead keeps you updated at every stage.

  • Keys, Not Loose Ends

    Walkthrough, punch list and handover are part of the job. You get a finished building, not a to-do list.

In the Customer's Words
