We're the GC. And the Plumber.
Home remodeling in Clayton without the runaround — because the contractor holding your permit is the same person running your pipes and gas lines.
Most remodelers hand off the plumbing and gas to a sub and hope for the best. We don't, because we don't have to. Pro Maxx One holds an active general contractor license alongside our plumbing and HVAC licenses — all three, in-house, under one roof. That's not common. In Johnston County, it might be unique.
What that means for your remodel: fewer handoffs, no sub-coordination delays, and a single point of contact who can actually answer every question about your project.
Triple-Licensed, One Company
Most design-build firms look impressive on paper until you ask who's actually doing the plumbing. The honest answer is usually "a subcontractor we call." That sub has their own schedule, their own priorities, and no particular loyalty to your project timeline.
We built Pro Maxx One differently. Our licenses cover:
- General Contracting — we pull the permits, manage the scope, and own the timeline
- Plumbing — rough-in, finish work, fixture installation, all in-house
- HVAC — when your remodel touches mechanical systems, we handle that too
When the GC and the plumber are the same company, the schedule stops being a negotiation between two separate businesses. Our trades run on our calendar.
Bathroom and Kitchen Remodels in Clayton
These are the two rooms that drive more remodel decisions than anything else — and the two rooms where plumbing coordination either makes or breaks the timeline.
Bathroom Remodeling
From a single-bathroom refresh to a full primary suite overhaul, we handle demo, tile, fixtures, plumbing rough-in, and finish work. No waiting on a plumber who isn't sure when they can fit you in — we're already there.
Kitchen Remodeling
Countertops, cabinetry, layout changes, gas range hookups, new sink plumbing — kitchens touch every trade we hold a license in. That's not a coincidence. It's why homeowners who've been burned by kitchen remodels before tend to call us back.
A Real Estimate After We See the Space
We don't quote remodels over the phone. We've seen too many projects go sideways because someone gave a number before they saw what they were actually dealing with.
Here's how it works:
Step 1: On-Site Walk
- We schedule a visit to look at the space, understand what you want, and identify anything that could affect scope or cost — existing plumbing conditions, structural considerations, material lead times.
Step 2: Written Estimate
- After the walk, you get a written estimate that covers trade work, materials, and timeline. Not a ballpark. A real number you can make a decision with.
Step 3: Scoped Timeline Upfront
- We tell you how long the project is expected to take before you sign anything. If something changes mid-project, we tell you immediately — not after the fact.
What Homeowners in Clayton Ask Before They Hire a Remodel Contractor
Straight answers that reflect our approach
Do you handle the design side, or just the construction?
We're a licensed general contractor, not a design-build firm. We handle the construction, permitting, and all trade work. If you need design services — drawings, renderings, material selection — we can point you toward designers we trust, and then execute the build once you're ready.
Do you pull permits for remodel work?
Yes. As a licensed GC in North Carolina, we pull the required permits for remodel projects and schedule inspections. Work done without permits can create serious problems when you sell your home — we don't skip that step.
What's a typical timeline for a bathroom or kitchen remodel?
Bathroom remodels typically run two to four weeks depending on scope. Kitchen remodels vary more — a cosmetic refresh might take two to three weeks, while a full layout change with new plumbing rough-in can run four to six weeks or more. We scope the timeline in writing before work starts.
How do you handle long-lead materials — tile, fixtures, cabinetry?
We build lead times into the project schedule at the estimate stage. If a tile you've selected is eight weeks out, we plan around that rather than starting demo and then waiting. Coordination issues like that are a lot easier to manage when the GC is also running the trade work.
Can you do whole-home remodels or additions?
Yes. Whole-home remodels and additions are part of our general contracting scope. If you have a larger project in mind, reach out and we'll schedule a walkthrough to talk through what's involved.
Why Clayton Homeowners Call Pro Maxx One for Remodels
The remodeling market in Clayton has no shortage of contractors. What it has less of is contractors who hold a GC license and can also run their own plumbing and gas without picking up the phone to call a sub.
If your remodel involves a gas range, a tankless water heater, a new bathroom layout, or any work that crosses into plumbing or mechanical — you're going to need those trades coordinated either way. We just happen to be all of them.
We're family-owned, we work in Johnston County and the surrounding area, and we've been voted a Nextdoor neighborhood favorite. Our clients know us by name, not by ticket number.
