But as we've discussed in the past, finding a good, reliable and affordable contractor in SoCal is next to impossible. EVERYONE has a pickup truck and a contractor's license. There's such an enormous amount of money to be made in that business out here because there really isn't much new building going on. It's all retrofitting of old buildings or homes. And many of them need new plumbing and electrical before anything else. It's a goldmine if you're a good, reliable, hard-working contractor. Too bad they're so hard to find. |

Any one who complains about home depot and lowes must not have been around back in the day. A local hardware store would be a small fraction of the size of a home depot. It would have the hardware, electrical, plumbing, paint and tool sections of home depot, but no electrical or plumbing fixtures and then reduce the size of stock by half. Lumber? go the the lumber yard. Plumbing fixture? special order or hire a contractor. Garden supplies? go to the garden store. Appliances? go to Sears or Montgomery Wards. And it was uphill both ways in the snow.
Bitch, bitch, bitch. You people don't know how good you have it. |
