About Me

I'm Brian McCarthy and I created McCarthy Repair and Maintenance in 2026 to bring my 40 years of  experience providing handyman skills to my family and friends to the greater Merrimack, NH area.


I treat every project like it's for family and I take pride in my work.

  

You will get my honest assessment of what my solution to your repair would be - including if I can't handle it.  I need you to be happy with my work.


I am insured to work in the State of New Hampshire. 


Years of Helping Family and Friends

After close to 40 years working as a software engineer the industry told me it was time to leave many years before I was ready.   I have always loved doing home repair and odd jobs which is why my entire family from New Hampshire to Massachusetts to New York to Texas are excited for me to start this company.  They know that my customers will be happy with my work, my attention to details and how I explain the steps needed to complete their projects.

From Foundation to Finish

I spent weeks completing this basement from insulation to framing to electrical to mini-split to ceiling.  The color and flooring choices were my wife's (not one of my strong points).

This was at my nephew's 200+ year old house where the front entryway was almost un-usable when he bought the house.  The first and last image show the initial and final layout of the area.

I removed the two doorways and the very small closet (no door), ran a new thermostat line, added nailing plates for the existing wires that were fished between the lath, finished the walls and ceiling with drywall to match the existing,  installed tile for the new entry way (needed to add bracing to the floor), created custom baseboard and thresholds to marry the old and new flooring and painted everything up.
