Lumberton’s Contractor
For 25 Years and Counting.
The North Group is based right here in Lumberton. Remodeling, roofing, and construction for the neighborhoods we drive through every day.
Lumberton is home base. The North Group operates out of the 28360, which means when you call us about a kitchen, a roof, or a full renovation, you are calling a contractor whose supply runs, church, and Friday errands all happen in the same town as your project. There is no travel markup and no out-of-town crew learning your streets.
It also means our reputation lives here. The work we do in Mayfair, Tanglewood, and the neighborhoods off Fayetteville Road gets seen by people we know. That is the best quality-control program ever invented.
Lumberton Houses, Honestly Assessed
Lumberton’s housing stock tells the town’s story: solid brick ranches from the fifties and sixties, two-story family homes near Luther Britt Park, mill-era houses closer to downtown, and newer construction pushing out toward the bypass. Each generation built differently, and each remodels differently. The ranches hide undersized panels, the older frame houses hide improvised wiring, and the newer builds hide builder-grade shortcuts.
Then there is the water. Anyone who was here for Hurricane Matthew in 2016 or Florence in 2018 knows what the Lumber River can do. We rebuilt flooded homes across this town in both recoveries, and that experience shapes how we build now: flood-aware material choices near grade, mechanical systems elevated where it makes sense, and drainage taken seriously on every project.

Rooted on the I-95 Corridor
Being at the crossroads of I-95 and I-74 makes Lumberton the working hub of this corner of the state, and it makes our logistics simple: suppliers deliver same-day, inspectors are minutes away at the county office, and our crews spend their time on your project instead of a highway.
We know the local permitting rhythm at the Robeson County and City of Lumberton offices, we know which neighborhoods sit in flood zones before the survey says so, and we know the soil. That local fluency is invisible on a bid sheet and worth real money on a project.
Three Lumberton Projects That Tell the Story
The Mayfair ranch that got its kitchen back.
A 1962 brick ranch with the original galley kitchen and a panel from the same year. Wall opened to the dining room, service upgraded, and a kitchen the owners now call the biggest room in the house even though the footprint barely changed.
The flood-recovery house that came back better.
Florence put nineteen inches of water through a family home off Fifth Street. We rebuilt with elevated mechanicals, flood-tolerant materials near grade, and documentation that made the insurance process survivable. The next storm found a tougher house.
The bypass-area roof done before it failed.
A twenty-four-year-old roof replaced on the owner’s schedule instead of during a leak emergency: full tear-off, two sheets of soft decking replaced and photographed, and a wind-rated install with the registration paperwork delivered in one packet.
If you have driven past our work without knowing it, that is by design. Good construction disappears into the neighborhood: the roofline that just looks right, the addition nobody can date, the kitchen that feels like the house always had it. Lumberton is full of that kind of quiet evidence, and we are glad to point some out at the consultation.

Lumberton Questions, Answered
Do you charge travel fees for Lumberton jobs?
No. Lumberton is home base, so there is no trip charge, no mileage line, and no minimum inflated to cover a drive. You are paying for construction, not commuting.
Can you help with flood-zone requirements on my Lumberton property?
Yes. Large parts of town carry flood-zone designations from the Lumber River basin, and they affect everything from material choices to how low mechanical equipment can sit. We have rebuilt through two major flood recoveries here and we design around the maps from day one.
How fast can you get to a project in Lumberton?
Consultations usually happen within a few days of the call, faster for active leaks or storm damage. Being local means a quick look at a problem does not have to wait for a scheduled route through the area. Call (910) 785-9253 and we will give you a real date on the spot.
Do you work on the older homes near downtown Lumberton?
Yes, and we like them. The pre-war and mill-era houses have real materials and real quirks: balloon framing, plaster walls, and wiring that has been updated in layers. We remodel them with respect for what is good and honesty about what has to go.
Are you licensed and insured for work in Lumberton?
Yes. North Carolina general contractor licensing and full liability coverage, with documentation available before any contract. Local also means the license has our neighbors’ projects behind it.
What is the best first step for a Lumberton project?
A free consultation at the house. Twenty minutes of walking the actual space beats a month of internet research, and you get a written scope with real numbers afterward. Use the contact page or just call.
Do you know Lumberton’s neighborhoods well enough to advise on resale?
After 25 years here, yes. Which projects return their cost in Mayfair versus out toward the bypass, what buyers in this market pay for, and what an appraiser will actually credit. That local math is part of every consultation.
Can you handle both my house and my business property?
Yes, and in Lumberton we frequently do. Residential remodeling and commercial work run on the same standard here, so the contractor who did your kitchen can also handle the office buildout downtown.
Do you offer any priority for repeat Lumberton clients?
Repeat clients get first call on the schedule, and in practice most of our Lumberton book is repeat and referral work. The second project with us always runs smoother than the first, because the house and the standard are already known.
Can you coordinate with my insurance agent directly?
Yes, with your authorization. Local agents know us and the file moves faster when the documentation goes straight to the right desk. It is one more advantage of everyone being in the same town.
The Hometown Standard
Plenty of contractors will drive to Lumberton for a job. We live here. When Richard gives a neighbor a price, it comes with the full weight of being the company people see at the hardware store on Saturday. That accountability is the product. The remodeling and the roofing are just how it gets delivered.
