Client Communication

We all live in a digital world these days, and the Construction process shouldn’t be left out. Neal Contracting has developed a cloud based project management process that puts you, our client, in charge. Developed exclusively for Neal Contracting, our clients are given a Project Dashboard that keeps them informed and connected throughout the project. The Dashboard gives the client immediate access to Contracts, Scope of Work, Specifications, Quotes, Plans, Schedule, Change Order Management, and of course Communication. Think of it as Facebook for your building project.

Coastal Construction

Our beautiful strip of sandbar that we all love can be one of the harshest environments for your home. Salt air, blowing rain, strong winds are all the norm, even without a hurricane around. We mitigate the life cycle maintenance issue by employing a holistic construction approach developed through decades of experience on the Outer Banks. The knowledge gained comes not just from our own construction projects, but in the repair and maintenance we perform on homes that we didn’t build. It gives us a unique insight into the strategies that work, the materials that perform, and what promotes longevity through the whole life of your home.

Project Management

Neal Contracting also offers full general contracting and renovation services by providing insured and licensed subcontractors, hands on daily management, and procurement of materials. If you already have a plan drafted on paper and need to bring it to reality, this is the service for you. Neal Contracting offers several different Contract options for project management, utilizing either Fixed Cost Contracts and Fixed Fee Contracts, or creating a custom Project Management arrangement that best fits the need of our client.

Design & Build

At Neal Contracting, we like design. The Design/Build Process is probably our favorite because we start our work at the very beginning. Working side by side with a client from the project inception to completion is rewarding for all sides and often allows for an inexpensive means of upfront customization for our clients that is difficult to achieve with already completed plans. The benefits of Design Build include but are not limited to the following: “ground up” comprehensive design management, value added planning to leverage a limited budget, unified responsibility for budget, quality of construction and schedule, early detection of complications of design. If you are thinking about building or remodeling on the Outer Banks, Neal Contracting has the resources to take your ideas from dream to reality.
