"I had Cummings Home Repairs and Remodeling over to finish up my extensive honey do list and would hire them again. They always said yes and completed everything on time and with a smile. No grumpy workers here. I turned on the radio for CCR (maybe Dire Straits) and let them get er done. I can’t say enough about Cummings Home Repairs and Remodeling! They are the BEST!"

"All Around Solutions LLC workers have been doing an impeccable job at my home! Ethan Putnam and his team are professional, knowledgeable. and pleasant to be around. Ethan has great communication skills too. Compliments from my friends and family have been things like, "This looks like a new house and this doesn't look like the same living room." This company is awesome! Great choice! Their prices are reasonable too. Special THANKS goes out to Ethan & team! /S/ Pauline Green "

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

Removing a load-bearing wall affects the structural integrity of your home, so you’ll need a permit before starting the work. Building codes vary by municipality, and obtaining a permit and having the work inspected after completion will ensure you’re in compliance with all applicable regulations.

Carpenters are trained to take on a wide range of home projects. You can hire a carpenter to do framing, roofing, build custom furniture, and make significant upgrades to your home. General carpenters are usually able to handle most jobs. However, you may also choose to hire a carpenter who specializes in a specific type of carpentry. 

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

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.
