Why Durham Homeowners Choose Kingsford

Deep Durham Roots

We’re not just contractors who work in Durham – we ARE Durham. Our family-owned business has been headquartered in the Bull City since 1989, and we’ve watched Durham transform from a tobacco and textile town into the vibrant, diverse community it is today. This isn’t just where we work; it’s where we live, shop, and raise our families.

Understanding Durham’s Architecture

Durham’s housing stock is wonderfully diverse, from 1920s craftsman bungalows in Trinity Park to contemporary designs in Southpoint. We understand the architectural considerations that make each style special:

• Historic Homes – Preserving character while improving performance
• Mid-Century Properties – Complementing clean lines with modern materials
• Contemporary Homes – Enhancing sleek designs with quality improvements
• Traditional Styles – Maintaining classic aesthetics with premium upgrades

North Carolina Climate Expertise

Durham’s humid subtropical climate creates specific challenges for home exteriors. Our 35+ years in the area means we know exactly which materials and installation techniques perform best:

• UV-resistant materials that won’t fade in North Carolina’s intense sun
• Moisture-resistant installations that handle our high humidity
• Storm-rated products designed for our severe weather season
• Energy-efficient solutions that reduce cooling costs during hot summers

Local Building Code Knowledge

Durham has specific building codes, permit requirements, and inspection processes. As longtime Durham contractors, we handle all permitting and ensure code compliance throughout Durham County. We know the local inspectors and understand exactly what’s required for each type of project.

Community Investment

Kingsford isn’t just a business in Durham – we’re community members. We sponsor local youth sports, support Durham charities, and believe in giving back to the city that has supported us for over three decades. When you hire Kingsford, you’re supporting a local business that invests in Durham’s future.
