Restoration and Construction Services in Marion, NC — One Company for Everything

When your home or business in Marion, NC has been damaged by water damage, fire and smoke damage, mold, or a storm, the road to recovery involves two things: restoration and rebuilding. Most companies only do one.


Foothills Construction and Restoration does both — which means Marion property owners never have to find a separate contractor once the cleanup is done.



Why does that matter for Marion homeowners?



After a flood or fire, the restoration phase addresses the immediate damage — drying, cleaning, and stabilizing the structure. The construction phase is what actually puts the home or business back together.


When those two phases are handled by different companies, things fall through the cracks: scope disputes, scheduling delays, and duplicate assessments that slow your insurance claim assistance process down. With Foothills Construction and Restoration in Marion, the same licensed team that restores your property is the one that rebuilds it.



Construction and Remodeling Services in Marion, NC



Beyond emergency restoration, Foothills Construction and Restoration serves Marion and McDowell County with a full range of construction and remodeling services:

Founded in 1844 and the city was named in honor of Brigadier General Francis Marion an American Revolutionary War Hero. His talent in “guerrilla warfare” earned him the prestigious nickname “Swamp Fox.” Listed on the National Register of Historic Places Marion's Main Street Historic District is one of many beautiful historic towns to visit in North Carolina. According to the 2017 Census, there are 7.640 people in the town of Marion and ever-growing. At an elevation of 1400 feet, Marion’s climate is known for its moderate warm weather during the summer only reaching in the high 80s and low 90s. Although summers aren’t hot the winters aren’t brutal cold either. Reaching between the 30s-40s throughout the winter season and accumulating 54 inches of rain each year it makes for a great place for any outdoor activities. In 2018 Marion was named “North Carolina Small Town of The Year” from the NC Rural Center. This award recognizes a small town or city that will “embrace citizen engagement, values diversity, and fosters strong partnerships.”


On March 14th in 1844 the first McDowell County Commissioners selected the land and commenced building the Town of Marion. Although this took place in 1844 it wouldn’t be till 1845 that they would select the official town name of Marion and sanction as the county seat by the state legislature. Marion is also known for being the home of Daniel Kanipe, which is only one of two survivors of the Battle of Bighorn. In 2011 the town placed a historical marker in front of Kanipe’s house forever making it a historic site.
