What are you favorite ways to find good contractors (google, networking, angieslist etc.)  Ideally before even getting estimates.  Any ways you filter through who to call or not?

Referals. Short of that, I recently heard a tip on one of the BP podcasts...go to Home Depot at 7am and talk to the contractors getting an early start on their work day. Those are the contractors you want to work with...not the contractors rolling in at 11am.
