White screen porch built by Pegram Builders

Hendersonville's Award Winning Deck and Renovation Contractor

As experienced Asheville builders, we know that adding a custom deck or porch is one of the best ways to enjoy mountain living in Hendersonville North Carolina.

A well-built outdoor space gives you more room to relax, entertain, and take in the mountain views while adding value to your home.

What We Build in Hendersonville

Custom Decks

We build composite, pressure treated, and cedar decks for Hendersonville homes. Hendersonville's apple orchard areas and established neighborhoods have good tree coverage and clay soil that retains moisture longer than rocky terrain. We use joist tape, double flashing, and screw-only fastening on every deck because those details prevent rot in humid conditions.

Most Hendersonville lots have moderate slopes, which we handle easily with standard elevated designs.

Screened Porches

Hendersonville's bug season runs April through October. A screened porch gives you views of the surrounding hills without the mosquitoes and insects. We build screened porches as standalone structures or add them to existing decks.

We handle the framing, screening, roofing, and electrical work.

Deck Repair & Remodeling

Henderson County decks take a beating from afternoon thunderstorms and high humidity. We replace rotted joists, failed ledger boards, and loose railings. Every repair meets current building code.

Deck Staining & Refinishing

Hendersonville decks fade fast in direct sun. We strip old finish, power wash, and apply stain or sealant rated for UV and moisture. Painting available on covered porch surfaces.

Covered Porches

A covered porch extends your living space year-round in Hendersonville. We build them with standing-seam metal roofing or shingled roofs to match your home.

Henderson County gets significant spring and fall rain, so proper drainage and flashing are essential. We handle both.

Garages

Detached garages, attached garages, and garage conversions. We build them with concrete foundations, framed walls, and finished interiors if you need workspace or storage. Many Hendersonville homes benefit from additional garage space for vehicles and seasonal equipment storage.

Basement Finishing

Many Hendersonville homes have basements that go unused. We finish them into living space, home offices, rental units, and workshops. We handle framing, insulation, electrical, plumbing, drywall, and flooring.

Lee Pegram holds the NC General Contractor license, so we pull permits and manage every trade.

Home Additions

Need more space? We build room additions, bump-outs, and second-story additions.

Hendersonville's older established neighborhoods often have homes that benefit from thoughtful additions. We start every project with a site visit to assess your foundation, roof tie-in, and load path.

Pergolas

Hendersonville homes sit at a slightly lower elevation than Asheville, which means a longer outdoor season. A pergola over your deck or patio adds shade without blocking the Blue Ridge views that make Henderson County worth living in.

Carports

Hendersonville neighborhoods like Laurel Park and Druid Hills have older homes with single-car garages or none at all. A carport gives you covered parking without the foundation and permitting cost of a full garage.

Sunrooms

Henderson County gets mild winters compared to higher elevations. A three-season sunroom works for most Hendersonville homeowners, but we build four-season insulated options for year-round use.

Hendersonville has a growing food scene and the climate to match. We build outdoor kitchens with countertops, built-in grills, and wet bars that connect to your deck or patio space.

Why Hendersonville Homeowners Choose Pegram Builders

Builder-Led, Not Sales-Led

Lee Pegram started this company in 2013 after getting laid off with a newborn at home. He started doing odd jobs, kept growing, and brought on his partner Zeke.

Twelve years and 500+ projects later, they still run every project the same way: the builder leads, not a salesman. Your estimator knows framing, footings, and fasteners because he has done the work.

NADRA Certified Deck Builders

Seth and Jason are both NADRA Deck Evaluation and Inspection Certified. NADRA is the North American Deck and Railing Association.

That certification means they know current codes, load requirements, and material specs. Most deck builders in Asheville do not carry this certification.

We Actually Answer the Phone

Multiple Google reviews mention this specifically. Call (828) 776-5020 during business hours and you will talk to a real person.

Jason and Seth manage projects. Autumn coordinates the office. You get direct cell numbers for your project manager on day one.

Quality Techniques

We use joist tape on every deck. It costs about $200 more per project, but we have never had a joist failure on any deck we have built since 2016. We use double flashing at every wall connection.

We use screw-only fastening. No nails. And we use picture frame trim boards for a clean finished edge. A lot of builders skip all of that.

1 Year Workmanship Warranty

We stand behind our work with a 1 year workmanship warranty. Materials carry manufacturer warranties that we pass through to you.

Fixed Pricing, No Surprises

What we quote is what you pay. No change orders unless you change the scope.

We give you a written contract with a fixed price before any work starts. Lee has said he would rather lose a job than mislead a homeowner on cost.

Award-Winning Work

2019 Pace Award for Best Outdoor Living Space. 2022 Stars Award for Best Addition Over $100,000. Both awarded by the Builders Association of the Blue Ridge Mountains. We are also members of Asheville Go Local.

What Makes Building in Hendersonville Different

Hendersonville sits at about 2,200 feet in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The elevation is lower than Asheville, which means winters are slightly milder and the terrain is gentler. The area has historic neighborhoods around downtown Main Street and newer subdivisions mixed with apple orchards and farmland.

Most Hendersonville lots have gentle to moderate slopes. Unlike steeper mountain terrain, you rarely need helical piers or complex engineering. Standard elevated decks and reasonable grade work handle most properties well.

Henderson County enforces the North Carolina Residential Code. Any deck over 30 inches above grade or attached to the house needs a permit and inspections. We have pulled over 200 permits in Henderson County since 2013 and manage the full process.

Hendersonville's clay soil and tree canopy mean decks hold moisture longer than in open areas. The area also has good lake access nearby with properties around Lake Osceola that need specialized waterfront construction. Composite decking with proper flashing holds up better than pressure treated lumber in these conditions.
