"Very well.  I acted as general contractor after my builder disappeared in the middle of the job.  I had some good contractors and some not so good ones.  HS Plastering and Painting was at the top of the good list.  The quality of their work was very good; no complaints there at all.  But what stood out was the experience of working with them.  They came when asked, did what they were asked to do, acted in a professional manner, stood by their work, and were a true pleasure to have as a contractor.  They were quick, worked weekends to get the job done, and didn't cut corners.  
In fact, my realtor liked them so much that she asked for their contact information for other houses that she works on.

"Coming from a long line of builders, I couldn't recommend Joe and his team more highly. I've worked with Joe on a number of projects he is the best general contractor I have ever worked with. He is professional, communicative, incredibly talented, hardworking, and above all an honest person and a joy to work with. I've never worked with a general contractor that I've trusted more, his prices are fair and he always solves for the customer. The bathroom looks incredible! The quality is exceptional and we get tons of compliments on it."

"Our house is 50+ years old and had the original casement windows, which were starting to fail. In addition, the exterior of our house need to be painted and there were a great deal of shingles or trim that was rotted and needed to be replaced. George and his team did an outstanding job, kept us informed as they went along and completed everything on time and on budget. We couldn't be happier with how the house looks. I would highly recommend Mavridis Contratcing to anyone looking for a contractor."

"Recently I had a need for plumbing work that was going to be substantially involved and I was acutely aware of this going into it. I reached out to MMP Construction (Lowell, MA) and Matt (Owner) was over the next morning. Although his company does not perform the particular type of plumbing work that needed to be done he nonetheless took the time to carefully evaluate the situation and provided thorough and pointed guidance as to what would need to be done. It is more than noteworthy that that he had no vested financial interest in recommending another contractor but nonetheless was good enough to recommend a company that would see to it that the work was performed properly, at a fair price and in an expeditious manner.
He recommended JJH Plumbing and Heating (Dracut, MA) and their work was nothing short of stellar!
Noteworthy also is that Matt kept himself in the loop at all times to be sure that I was being taken care of and if I had any concerns to not hesitate to reach out to him immediately.
I want to reiterate that MMP Construction not only met but substantially exceeded my wildest expectations in terms of customer service, response time, professionalism and recommendation of another contractor whose work was as good as he said it would be.
I will state for the historical record that MMP Construction provides 'Old School' service when back in the day contractors actually took pride in their work, a trait that seems to have fallen by the wayside over the years. MMP Construction is not about the 'Almighty dollar' but rather seeing to it that your needs are met professionally, properly and on time.
The above said, I unequivocally cannot rate them high enough and will be using them for other projects down the road.

"It is surprisingly difficult to find reliable contractors with good communication skills that do quality work, especially for these smaller projects. So I was pleased with how smoothly this project went from start to finish. A formal written quote was provided via email which I accepted and he scheduled the work for the following week. They completed it in less time than I thought it would take and did a great job. I will definitely use them again for future projects."

"Rich's approach on engaging our project is how a general contractor should function in the 21st century. Total price transparency, line item granularity, timeliness and honesty about possible complications. We wanted to remodel our kitchen and as part of that we needed a wall to be partially removed and plastered, leaving enough height for a countertop. Rich stopped by, evaluated our intention, provided honest feedback on possible complications, suggested ways to save money and then sent us a very detailed quote for each component of the work. This enabled us to pick and choose exactly what we wanted to get done at the price point that we had budgeted for. During the work, some parts turned out to be more complicated than initially estimated, however Rich was generous enough to just take care of it and even throw in an in-wall shelf removal and plastering. The quality of work was outstanding, as well as the timing of scheduling and arrival. He even offered to leave the bagster bag for longer in case we had extra debris from our project once his work was done. All in all, we were left with a great impression of the work done and would not hesitate to contact him again for any future work."

Unfinished Carpentry questions, answered by experts

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.

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

Professionals ensure precise alignment and durability, critical for structural integrity.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.
