Side-by-side decision guides for Cambridge

Roofers vs General Contractors Single-system, roof-only? Roofer. Multi-trade or structural? GC. HVAC Contractors vs Plumbers Tankless water heater install crosses both, most plumbers handle it, some HVAC shops do too. Get one quote from each. Plumbers vs Handyman Services Soldering, gas, sewer, or anything behind drywall = plumber. Drop-in, no-tools-past-a-wrench = handyman. Painters vs Handyman Services If the customer will judge the finish under direct light, hire the painter. If the paint is incidental to a fix, handyman is fine. Flooring Contractors vs General Contractors One floor, one room, no walls move: flooring specialist. Multi-trade or load-bearing involved: GC. Concrete Contractors vs Fence Contractors Sometimes you need both (post footings on a long fence run); concrete will pour, fencing will set posts.
