It turned out my plumbing issues had caused serious damage which turned into an insurance claim. John walked me through the entire process and fought for me with my insurance company. These guys are truly top notch.
They came within a couple hours of us contacting them and immediately identified the issues. Patient navigating a difficult insurance process, and no pressure to do any unnecessary work.
John sent pics as he was working to make sure it was what I was hoping for. On time for both the quote and the work. Good Wood will be our first call.
How we work
One number to call and photo updates as the work happens. No $2,000 job that turns into $20,000.
No two week project that turns into two years. On time for the quote, and on time for the work.
A schedule we hold ourselves to, from a kitchen repair to a commercial shell to a dock repair underwater.
Services
Framing, drywall and paint are ours. Everything around them is managed by the same people who swing the hammers.
Self-performed
Large-scale commercial framing is the specialty. Metal stud, wood, boxing and new construction, run by a crew that keeps a big box moving.
IICRC registered firm
Fire, water, mold, smoke and odor, lead based paint and asbestos. We document the loss, fight the claim with you, and put the building back.
Ground up and remodel
New construction and remodels for small businesses and large corporations.
Any scale
Home additions down to a kitchen or bathroom repair, with one crew and one point of contact.
SDVOSB
Straightforward contract management for public work. No job is too small.
Specialty
Dock repair, asset recovery, pool leak tests and subsurface removal, by certified divers.

Point of contact, whether the job is a wall, a roof or a dock
Commercial dive services
Good Wood's certified divers handle the work below the waterline. If a dock, a pool, a basin or something you dropped is underwater, the same company that builds on land can go down and deal with it.
Inspection and repair below the surface, by the people who can rebuild above it.
Inspection and leak testing done in the water.
Equipment and property recovered from the bottom.
Search below the surface when something or someone needs finding.
Submerged trees and obstructions cleared from the water.
Where it helps
When a dock repair runs from the pilings up to the decking, it is one company from the bottom of the water to the top rail. If it is underwater, ask.
Selected work
Restaurants, clinics, branch offices and the framing packages underneath them, across the Piedmont Triad.
Full restaurant build-out. Front of house millwork, service line and kitchen coordination.
Clinic fit-out. Exam rooms, ultrasound suite and counselling spaces.
Branch office delivered to a national tenant's prototype drawings.
Interior build-out and branded finishes to a national standard.
