"Marsh contracting came in and took our 50+ year old bathroom and made it into a great, functional space. I wish I could explain the awfulness of the "before" situation they were facing. Tile and plaster 3 inches thick; square, heavy bathtub that need to be removed; galvanized steel pipes with years of corrosion blocking water flow. They had great suggestions for improvements and helped us stay within our budget while still taking care of the things that needed to be done. They were prompt and worked quickly; the only hiccup was on our side with a delivery issue, and they were able to work around it and keep the project rolling. Bob and his team were upfront with us on everything, and I felt that I had a clear idea of how the project was moving along, next steps, and the timeline for completion. Communication was never an issue, whether via email, phone, or text. And my super picky Father in Law has even complemented the great tile work!"

Our philosophy of ethical practices, attention to the smallest detail, timeliness, and personalized service are just a few of the ways we have earned our clients’ trust.

"Kevin was recommended to us by our architect. We are restoring a historic home, and we needed to make structural changes as well as expand and renovate the kitchen and family room. Kevin and his sub-contractors did a tremendous job. He made sure that every detail was just as we had asked, even when it meant milling moldings from scratch and installing custom, reclaimed wood floors. His workers were professional, talented and pleasant. They always kept things safe and clean. At the end of the renovation, we could not be happier with the results. Everyone says our place is beautiful. We are looking forward to have Kevin start the next stage in our renovation soon."

Architects questions, answered by experts

A cathedral ceiling is a type of vaulted ceiling with a symmetrical peak that follows the pitch of the roof. They typically peak at a height of 12 to 20 feet, although they can go higher. This dramatic height and steep peak mimic the architecture of many historic cathedrals, which is where they got their name.

The biggest upside to hiring an architect is that they will ensure an efficient building process without errors. They will also ensure your home is free from structural issues and that everything is up to building code. Many permitting agencies require architects to draw construction plans and layouts before working, so hiring an architect will also ensure your project is legal. Additionally, architects help homeowners have a clear idea of their project details before the project starts. Hence, they help unify all parties on a shared vision for the project.

The process typically takes 2-6 weeks, depending on the project size and level of customization.

Italianate architecture is a reinterpretation of Renaissance styles, combining elements of Italian farmhouses and villas with Victorian materials and construction. This home style emerged in the Victorian era, gaining popularity in the U.S. in the mid-to late-1800s. The style came about in response to what many then viewed as the too-rigid and stuffy Classical style designs. 

Yes, integrating sustainable practices and energy efficiency into plans is common.
