Coastal Concepts Construction · Service area

Serving Surf City, NC

About 45 minutes northeast of our shop on Amsterdam Way in north Wilmington -- US-17 through Ogden, Porters Neck, and Hampstead, then NC-210 east into Surf City. Add a few minutes for summer beach traffic near the bridge.

Surf City straddles the Intracoastal Waterway, with the original beach town on Topsail Island and most of the recent growth on the mainland side along NC-210 and NC-50. The high-rise bridge that replaced the old swing bridge in 2018 ended the era of waiting on the hour for the span to swing closed, and the mainland subdivisions have been filling in ever since. For a contractor that means two different kinds of work: salt-exposed cottages and elevated builds on the island that need coastal-spec everything, and newer mainland homes hitting the age where builder finishes need real attention.

Including Waterside, Old Settlers Beach, Island Oaks and the surrounding area.

Surf City questions

Do you work on both the island and mainland sides of Surf City?

Yes -- we take projects on Topsail Island and in the mainland subdivisions off NC-210 and NC-50. The material spec changes with the exposure, and we write that into the scope. Call 910-239-8500 and we will set up a site visit.

Can you schedule work around a vacation rental calendar?

That is a normal constraint for Surf City jobs. Smaller repairs can fit between stays; remodels and deck builds usually go into the off-season window between late fall and early spring. Give us your calendar and we will build the timeline around it.

What materials hold up on an oceanfront or waterway lot in Surf City?

For exterior work near the water we typically spec composite decking, stainless or hot-dipped galvanized hardware, and aluminum railing systems -- standard materials corrode fast in salt air. We walk through the options during the estimate so you can weigh cost against lifespan.

The job was coordinated well by Brent, Office Manager. Tim, Craftsman arrived on time, discussing the project with the homeowner. He introduced Jordan, worker assisting him. Both stayed on task throughout the project. Upon completion Tim described each finished task. The work was completed as planned. The work was excellent.
