My name is Phil Merrill and I truly love what I do and enjoy making people happy. My father always told me while growing up to find something I love, then find out how to make money while doing it, and if I can accomplish these things then I will never work a day in my life. As I have grown older and learned that my parents were actually right about a thing or two, I see what my dad meant by never working. When I'm swinging a hammer or crafting with my hands, it’s not work but, a Passion. My Dad was also a carpenter and when I was younger he used to take me to work with him during summer vacations. That's when I first started to learn my trade. Now it's been over 15+ years. I am grown and have a family of my own with my amazing wife, Tracy, who encouraged me to start my own business. We have two boys and a girl and our puppy, Lexie. We are from the Seacoast, NH area and I look forward to helping you fall in love with your home again!

"I have worked with Meadows construction in the past on a new 2 level deck and was very impressed with their workmanship and the crew. They are VERY hard workers. We needed a very large addition and kitchen/living area added and their work is great. We had a couple of issues come up because of the work an outside architect had done but Mike and I worked it out. His foreman is spot on and his crew are just wonderful to work with. He and his foreman were always a phone call away as I was away during construction. They had solutions when we had questions and followed through on them. On a project this large there are always bound to be things that come up but we always managed to come up with solutions. Mike, Brian, Otti and the rest of the crew, we thank you for making our plans come to fruition and doing a great job. He promised to be done in April and he came through on that promise. Looking forward to settling into our new spaces. thanks guys"

"BG Construction bid on several small jobs in December 2022, aware that work was expected to commence in March, 2023. Contract signed. Deposit required with installments paid on job completion. I would recommend setting â  service completed by dateâ  as part of contract. Jobs finally completed in December, 2023. Most work was sloppily done with little attention to detail and would need to be corrected. Last job with final payment will need to be totally re-done. Called contractor to report poor & incorrect workmanship that he needed to correct. Contractor said he would call back to schedule but now is ignoring my calls. So, contractor â  took the money and ranâ  . Totally unprofessional. I have pictures of his workmanship which confirm his total ineptitude in completing a job that he said he could do. Bill did not listen to me and argued with me, the home owner. I would not recommend this contractor at all."

Stucco is very challenging to DIY, so it’s always best to leave the work to professional stucco contractors. The same recommendation applies to painting a stucco house, which should be left in the reliable hands of a professional exterior painter. Inexperienced DIYers can make several critical mistakes during stucco application, such as:
Failing to apply sufficiently thick layers for longevity and water resistance
Uneven application
Uneven texture across the exterior
Mixing the stucco improperly, leaving a weak structure
Failing to texture properly in between coats, leading to cracking and chipping
In some cases, stucco siding will increase your home value. Stucco is an attractive siding option, meaning it maximizes your curb appeal. This exterior feature also comes with added benefits, such as being relatively easy and affordable to repair, making your home more energy-efficient, and making the exterior of your home fire-resistant. On average, you can expect a return on investment of around 70%.
Late fall is generally the best time of year for installing stucco siding. We don’t recommend hiring a stucco pro to apply this feature when the temperatures are below freezing, so it’s best to avoid applying stucco siding to your home during the winter. However, it’s safe to apply in hot and colder temperatures, so any other time of year is suitable. The spring and summer are the busiest times of year for stucco siding professionals, so you could save money by doing the work in the off-season: the late fall.
Many general contractors can handle adding stucco siding, but it’s best to hire a local stucco contractor as you’re more likely to get a clean finish on your stucco siding that maximizes curb appeal. Stucco can be a challenging material to work with, so hiring a professional contractor who has years of experience and specializes in stucco application is advisable. Compare price quotes from at least three stucco contractors in your area to find the right pro for your task.
The average cost of stucco siding is $5,400, ranging from $2,200 to $8,840. Stucco is worth the investment, provided you have the work done by a professional. Not only is stucco an attractive and durable siding material that boosts your home’s curb appeal, but it’s also more energy-efficient than most other siding options, it’s fire-resistant, water-resistant, and more affordable to repair down the road.
