For out-of-town owners

Own an Outer Banks home but live somewhere else?

You shouldn't need a special trip just to find out what your house needs. We coordinate with your property manager, take photos at every step, email you photos and reports, and hold Zoom meetings for estimates.

Photos at every step

We take photos at every step and email them to you, so you can see the work even when you're not there.

You'll always know who's at your house

Kevin Pillsbury and Marty Thompson co-own Refresh OBX. You'll know the people working on your home by name.

We coordinate with your property manager

We can meet your property manager at the house for the free assessment.

Photos and reports by email

After the assessment we email you the photos and our report.

Zoom meetings for estimates

We review options and pricing with you by Zoom, or in person if you're in town.

A monitored inbox

Email sales@refreshobx.com any time. The inbox is monitored, which helps if you live in another time zone.

How it works from out of town

Five steps, no special trip.

  1. Request online

    Use the form or call. Tell us what you want checked and who manages the home.

  2. We meet your property manager

    We do the free assessment at the house, with you or your property manager, and take measurements and photos.

  3. Photos and report by email

    We email you the photos and our report, so you see what we saw.

  4. Options and pricing by Zoom

    We review scope, options and pricing with you in a Zoom meeting. For windows, you see the window price and Pella's installation estimate separately.

  5. You decide

    Take the time you need. There's no one-call close. If you go ahead, we keep sending photos at every step.

What to include in your request

  • The address, and who manages the home
  • What you want checked, inside or out
  • Guest dates or times the house is empty
  • The best way and time to reach you
