We would love to speak with you about your Custom home or major addition project. We have many satisfied clients to provide references upon request. We look forward to working with you!

"From start to finish Stevie and his wife Gail were wonderful to work with. Stevie would call me every week to give me an update on the progress of the new house he was building for me. I cannot say enough about the professionalism and expertise he exhibited. I'd never built a house and he and Gail made it a fun and easy project. I interviewed three other builders and after speaking with Stevie I knew I'd found my builder, and he did not disappoint in any way. He helped save me money at times and at other times was very clear why it would be in my best interest to do something different. It was definately a partnership all along the way. Trust me when I say, don't look any further, Marshall Construction is the company for all your projects, small or large."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

Learning how to frame a house includes picking the right lumber for the job. Most people will want to pick pine, spruce, or fir for the framing. These types of lumber are affordable and produce sturdy framing for structures. Look for kiln-dried lumber to reduce the risk of shrinkage or insect damage after installation. As part of what’s included in framing a house when you hire a professional, the contractor should order the lumber, so you don’t have to worry about finding the right lumber.

Bump-out additions can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you’re just looking to increase the space a little—not renovate the entire closet space.

Installing a tongue-and-groove wall requires similar techniques to those associated with installing shiplap. However, because of the precision necessary to make each board fit perfectly and the increased material prices, the cost is higher than that of shiplap installations. Expect to spend between $2 and $6 more per square foot for tongue-and-groove walls versus shiplap ones.

You can choose 5/8-inch plywood or 3/4-inch plywood—anything thinner than these sizes may not withstand the impact of debris propelled by strong winds or can be easily torn off by intruders. Remember that the durability of the wood board is crucial, particularly for safeguarding your windows during severe storms. The effectiveness of using wood boards for protecting the investment you made in your home relies on using the appropriate material and ensuring proper installation.

Yes, professional installations include reinforced corner posts to ensure durability.
