Nichols Carpentry

Nichols Carpentry works out of 42 Hampden Street in Swampscott, with Charles Nichols named as its owner. The trades on its BuildZoom listing are the carpentry ones a house needs over time: framing, cabinets, finish carpentry, deck repair, doors and windows. One thing to settle before any work is booked: on the state registry, the Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration held in the Nichols Carpentry name, #152421, is expired. BuildZoom's listing dates that expiration to August 2008. Homeowner work covered by the home improvement contractor law needs a registered contractor, so ask Charles Nichols directly where the registration stands now, get a current certificate of insurance, and put the scope and price in writing before anyone starts.
