As a homeowner I was allowed to do my own electrical and plumbing work, now as a 'professional' I have to sub out that work to licensed plumbers and electricians.
I want to get a few resources squared away before I need them, I was figuring getting in touch with 3 electricians and 3 plumbers I would be comfortable hiring as subs so I could call upon them when the time comes.
I'm going to try the phone book technique and then Service Magic as advised by Grumpy in another thread.
What should I know about these guys in order to consider them? I was considering meeting with each of them before hand, should I get a copy of their insurance or license? Any questions I should ask about rates or how they charge? Anything else you can think of?
