CMC Property Innovations — General Contractor in Winston Salem, North Carolina

CMC Property Innovations brings a practical, resident-focused approach to home improvements that make living spaces more comfortable and less costly to run. As a licensed real estate firm with full-service residential property management capabilities, the team understands how design choices, materials, and mechanical systems affect long-term ownership costs. Projects are planned around daily routines, with careful attention to durable finishes, code compliance, and smart upgrades that trim utility bills month after month. From quick-turn renovations in rental homes to comprehensive kitchen and bath transformations, every step is mapped to protect timelines and budgets. Energy-saving fixtures, efficient lighting plans, and better insulation details are treated as standard, not extras. The result is straightforward—rooms that look new, function better, and use less energy, which benefits both homeowners and residents over the lifespan of the property.

How does CMC Property Innovations approach kitchen and bath remodels for homeowners?

Kitchen and bath remodels begin with an in-home assessment that documents existing plumbing, electrical, ventilation, and structural conditions. CMC Property Innovations then builds a scope that sequences demolition, rough-ins, inspections, and finishes so the space stays usable as long as possible. Layouts are refined to shorten work triangles in kitchens and to improve circulation in baths, while clearances are checked against current codes. Energy and water performance are integrated early: WaterSense fixtures, low-flow showerheads, and insulated tub surrounds reduce hot water demand, and LED lighting with dimmable drivers cuts electrical load. Vent fans with humidity sensors help prevent moisture damage and keep conditioned air moving efficiently. Material selections favor durable tile, easy-clean quartz, and low-VOC finishes that hold up to everyday use. Throughout construction, the team coordinates licensed trades, manages permit schedules, and maintains a tidy jobsite to minimize disruption for residents.

What cabinet countertop and finish upgrades does CMC Property Innovations recommend to cut energy use?

Cabinet, countertop, and finish upgrades are treated as an opportunity to refresh style and improve performance. CMC Property Innovations begins by field-measuring and documenting appliance clearances, then presents options for cabinet refacing or replacement depending on box condition. Soft-close hinges and full-extension slides are standard for reliability, while moisture-resistant boxes are specified near sinks and dishwashers. For counters, the team often recommends nonporous quartz or recycled-composite surfaces with eased edges for safety and easy maintenance. Energy savings show up in thoughtful details: light-colored, matte finishes bounce daylight deeper into the room; continuous LED under-cabinet lighting with integrated diffusers reduces wattage and eliminates dark corners; and sealed backsplash transitions limit air infiltration at exterior walls. Low-VOC paints and formaldehyde-free components support better indoor air quality. Final punch-out includes precise caulking, alignment checks, and hardware tuning so doors and drawers operate smoothly and stay efficient to use.

Can CMC Property Innovations convert closed floor plans into open concept layouts without sacrificing efficiency?

Open-concept conversions start with a structural review to identify load-bearing walls, joist direction, and potential point loads. CMC Property Innovations collaborates with engineering partners to size beams and posts—often using LVLs—so spans feel open without compromising safety. Mechanical systems are mapped next. Supply and return ducts, plumbing stacks, and wiring are rerouted cleanly, with opportunities taken to seal ductwork, add insulation at exposed chases, and right-size LED lighting zones. Daylighting is improved by aligning sightlines to existing windows and, when feasible, widening doorways to promote cross-breezes. To maintain comfort in larger volumes, the team plans switchable task lighting and ceiling fan rough-ins, and evaluates whether smart thermostats or zoned controls could trim runtime. Dust control, temporary protection, and resident-safe walk paths are maintained throughout. The result is a brighter, more connected living area that keeps energy loads in check while modernizing the way the home lives.
