"Keith and his crew came out and did a wonderful job, the lawn guy damaged the vinyl siding skirting on both sides of my mud room and the two columns, and Keith and his crew repaired the damage and did a great job. I would certainly be using them again and also recommend them. Thanks Scott K."

"John is a great guy! Very friendly, great communication and attention to detail. Worked with me every step of the way always making sure I was happy with the work. He even worked with my insurance company to get them to cover their portion of the expense. The crew was very polite and thorough and did exceptional work. Their design and workmanship was outstanding. Even the building inspector was very impressed. I highly recommend these guys and would be happy to hire them again."

"Responsive. Respectful. Reliable. MRC Construction did an outstanding job with my new siding and gutters! This was my first big home improvement project. I set a budget, began the research and ultimately requested bids from four suppliers. MRC was the most competitive, offered the product selection and warranty I was looking for and their schedule fit mine. Rodrigo is professional and patient and answered all of my questions. Marco managed the onsite work flawlessly. From the first phone call to the last walk through, MRC Construction is FIVE stars. I highly recommend MRC Construction and will go back to them for my future projects."

Carpentry FAQs, 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.

When hanging a door frame, it’s recommended that you use screws, not nails. Screws are more secure, easier to tighten, and easier to remove if you need to adjust the frame. On average, the cost to replace a door frame is about $400, but you can save on labor costs if you’re confident in your ability to DIY the project. 

Yes, ceiling joists are typically load-bearing. However, their primary function is to support the weight of the ceiling and loads applied to it, like lighting fixtures and ceiling fans. They can also help support the roof, especially if they’re part of truss systems. Remember, the load-bearing capacity of ceiling joists depends on the material, size, and space between them. 

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.

Modern brick houses are really stick-built homes with a brick facade for aesthetic purposes only, so most have framing. With genuine brick construction, most homeowners install furring strips over the interior of the brick and then install drywall over those strips to cover the brick wall, so they don’t have traditional framing.
