We are seeing #fibercement #siding specified more and more. Our team enjoys working with it and realizes that it is a good alternative to wood. The silicon dust issue is real though, and measures to control it are a must. https://t.co/L5c3PhT7I9

The systems for house construction are increasingly complex. While staying current on building technologies, we get envelop consultants and mechanical engineers involved in complex projects. A good read for anyone involved in residential construction. https://t.co/utUIYZNn2i

This Fine Homebuilding article gave our president, David Dankens, the inspiration to search his own library for those books which he finds eminently helpful in M. F. Reynolds' daily construction work. Stay tuned for more details on each of those books! https://t.co/LfenrQ8ILK

We've been involved in many underpinning projects to replace the rotted tops of wood pilings under historic #Boston #homes . Good explanation of this longstanding problem via @WSJ . [Can you see MFR truck -barely visible- on Beacon St?] https://t.co/aIFQuLY676

It is great to see advanced technological application, such as #3Dprinting, being applied to long standing issues of affordability in residential housing. This approach should be encouraged and carefully reviewed for safety compliance. https://t.co/4UFOqWUwVQ

[M. F. Reynolds, Inc. @mfreynoldsbuild]

So many houses we work on require #shutters for proper detailing and balancing of architectural elements. We always can tell real care has been taken on a restoration project when shutters are properly detailed and constructed. https://t.co/L8P8e4Wdkp #shutter #homerestoration

While #bathtubs are somewhat out of favor with many customers, we find that some are keen on having a comfortable and visually attractive bathtub. Here is a very good overview from @FHBMagazine , but the stated price range is too low. https://t.co/drYKZBLzuw

Shower benches are a big ➕! Be sure to be clear about the depth of the bench and how much physical space you'll have to sit on. Good to see colleagues at Hickox Williams Architects in Boston featured. https://t.co/fDucIfTvbc
