Do you dream of a perfectly organized garage? If you need an all-weather and secure place to work on repairs and crafts or to store tools and equipment in addition to your vehicles, a new garage might be right for you. A well-planned garage provides all the advantages of a carport and much more. Storage can be designed into the floor plan and/or roof attic, as well as a project area near the car bay(s). An insulated garage door, walls, floor and roof, plus a mini-split heat pump, can provide year-round comfort.

Peter Thorn Builders is Chapel Hill’s premier home addition contractor. Chapel Hill zoning rules changed a few years ago making it easier to add an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) aka “Granny Flat” or “In Law Suite”. There is strong demand in Chapel Hill for graduate and professional student housing, due to the steady stream of renters relocating here to further their education. Do you need a little or even a lot more room? If so, Peter Thorn Builders can design and build a conventional house addition or room addition for your Chapel Hill Area home.

We offer the same guard and rail options as our decks use, but floor and ceiling covering choices are more varied. Do you dream of a gracious porch? Whether your style is classic or modern, upgrading an existing porch or adding a porch to your home is a great way to add 3 season living space and visual appeal to your home. A porch is essentially a deck with a roof. We are experienced at converting existing decks to porches and can let you know if your existing deck is a good conversion candidate.

Need a welcoming and functional outdoor space to enhance your living style? An appealing, well-built deck is the least costly way to expand your living area to the outside. Three season space allows you to take advantage of North Carolina’s many days of beautiful weather to spend time safely with friends and family, or just relax comfortably outside. We love decks. We maintain them, upgrade them, rebuild them and convert them to porches (see below). We offer a wide range of railing and deck surface styles to suit your home and your taste.
