Wilson’s Approach

Construction & additions in Salem, Oregon

From new construction and additions to framing, garages, carports, outbuildings, gazebos, patio enclosures, and windows, we start by walking the space with you. Let’s talk about how the new work connects to what’s there and how you’ll use it.

A practical conversation starts with the property, the work you have in mind, and connection to existing structures, openings, access, and layout, framing and project sequence.

Framing

Your framing gives the building its shape and puts the openings where you need them. Whether you’re planning walls, an addition, or an outbuilding, we’ll look at how the structure supports the space you have in mind.

Sunroom repairs

If your sunroom needs attention, show us the areas that concern you. We’ll look at the enclosure and where it meets your building, because wear around an opening can have a different cause from damage at a structural connection.
