A good portion of our business is wiring for basement finishes, additions and remodels. We are very skeptical when a GC calls us without a referral. Don't just give them a price and start working. Find out who they use for other trades and call them to see how they pay and what happened to the last EC. Most of our new contractors come from referrals by an HVAC or plumbing company that we have worked with on other projects. If you know any other trade subs, start by talking to them and get them to talk you up to their other GC's.
