"Moabe Nascimeanto and the ML Construction crew did an amazing job for our home construction project, which was extensive in scope and was geographically far away from ML Construction home base. They achieved top quality in very category. His skills, work ethic, quality control and flexibility is best-in-class. His pricing is also best-in-class.

"We can't recommend Jack enough! We hired him to help our historic Newport home pass a lead inspection, almost every window in the home needed work. Jack took what seemed like a complicated failed lead compliance report and created a clear plan of work, We ended up passing the lead test upon completion of the work! He took meticulous care to ensure he was following the many safety regulations involved and kept us updated with his progress. Jack also arranged for a highly skilled carpenter to do a job at the home while he was completing the job. Jack's work is high quality , and he was a pleasure to work with - he is friendly, knowledgeable and has given us some great insight into living in Newport."

"Tom worked with us to ensure our needs were met in the design and throughout the construction project and we are pleased with the end result but the communication throughout the process was challenging. We had to initiate all communication and he did not keep us in the loop frequently enough. Still has not come back to fix two defective wood rails after completing the project over 8 months ago. Very frustrating experience."

"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Costs depend on desk size, labor, included features like drawers or motorized height adjustments, and required wall anchoring.

You can enclose an open carport, however, there are several things to consider before opting to do so. You'll want to check local building codes and permit requirements before proceeding to make sure it’s legal. While you can sometimes stick-frame a carport enclosure, pre-fab kits are also available. Remember that you'll likely need to meet concrete slab regulations and provide lighting inside the structure. Both of which could substantially drive up costs.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

The cost to install a bow window can range from $1,500 to $15,000, with a national average of $3,900. The total price includes materials, which can cost between $1,200 and over $14,000, and labor, which typically adds $300 to $1,900. Several factors influence the final cost, including the window's size and frame material. For example, vinyl frames are the most budget-friendly option, while wood frames are more expensive. Custom features or energy-efficient upgrades will also increase the price. For comparison, a bay window installation typically costs between $1,000 and $7,000.
