"Andrew was a professional. His communication was good and he was fairly priced. Only glitch was not knowing stuff wouldn't be hauled away until next day, but in the end that did not pose an issue to the building of the new ramp. I would hire Andrew again."

"Darryl worked only part of each of the 5 days he was here. He left to go get supplies and then ended his day about noon. He left to do another job when there were still 2 items on my list stating that my job took longer than expected. If he had come early and worked later everything could have been finished. He told me the weather was going to be bad, which it wasnt and he said he would play it by ear,; as to when he will get back to me. That is unacceptable to me. I cleared my schedule to be here and my time was not respected."

"The owner is a man of his word We installed 17 kitchen sliding shelves. He said the quality of the materials would be excellent and it is. We've now asked him to look at installing ship lap siding in our kitchen. It's hard to find a artisan who delivers on his promise of quality and in a timely manner but he does. Plus he is a geniunely nice man"

"Marku Construction is FANTASTIC! A few years ago we converted our 3 bedroom house into a 2 bedroom. But now, when we want to sell, the realtor convinced us to switch it back. I called Marku Construction and Ari came out the same morning to look at the job. Our timeline was short but he was able to fit us in within a few days. The job entailed removing french doors, rebuilding the wall to split the large room in half, framing/installing two bedroom doors, baseboards, & molding, and painting everything to match! Ari and his crew did an excellent job and for a great price. They were in and out in 2 days and left the job spotless. They even left the place super clean when they were going to be back in the morning. I would recommend Marku Construction for any job they took on. Attention to detail, professionalism, and great communication are just a few of the reasons why. And our realtor is thrilled to have his contact information as well!"

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, you’ll want to use screws on your subfloor rather than nails. Nails can actually weaken plywood, whereas screws can easily penetrate without damage. They also form a more secure connection because of their shape, preventing squeaky floors and tightly holding the subfloor in place. That said, some contractors do prefer nails depending on the type of floor covering because they allow for more flexibility.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

While framing a basement is not as difficult as finishing a basement, it's something you should typically leave to the pros. That’s because if something is installed correctly, it will affect your entire basement. However, you can take care of some of the smaller tasks, like filling holes or putting up some insulation.

If you remove a load-bearing wall to create an entrance to a carport or covered patio, you can expect to pay between $3,200 and $9,500, with an average cost of $6,400. Factors such as the type of addition and if that area needs additional work will add to the price.

Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are ways to identify a load-bearing column, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.
