You may be better off contacting suppliers and subs rather than connecting with a general, but if you want a general contractor, I could recommend one. for flooring I would recommend Rocky Mountain flooringKitchen sinks you can have Lowe’s help with that or there is a local company called Ferguson who can come out and give you an estimate on a kitchen remodel. what are you needing for bathroom?

@Alvaro RodriguezHouston has several suppliers and the range is .11- .17 KWH.

Just to clarify, I was asking about hiring a Home Depot Contractor and using all Home Depot supplies (cabinets, flooring, counter tops) as opposed to finding an independent contractor out in Florida, and using their suppliers to handle the remodel.

Our family team is made up of a realtor, a banker/lender, general contractors and a construction supplier.

@John TeachoutA few years back a local hardware chain got into a dispute with their paint supplier and were switching brands.

I accept this, because I enjoy the convenience of going to one location to purchase all my grocery needs, rather than contracting with each supplier.  

I am not aware of them getting accounts receivable financing.. our biggest supplier is lumber and its a huge company ParrOur monthly draws are about 500k spread between many subs.. so not to much to carry for all the individual subs... but they want their check on the 10th and if you don't pay them they leave LOL.Also in Oregon properly done material man leins are super leins they jump ahead of the bank or any other creditor except property taxs.. so subs who have the brain power to send pre lien notices in accordance with the law .. they are going to get paid one way or another its really quite a great place to be a sub in that regard..

A sub or material supplier can file a mechanics lien for not being paid even though you paid the GC. 

It’s a collaborative effort between you, designers, suppliers, subcontractors etc.

Depending on the level of details from the prints and the scope of work, the contractor should figure out the costs in an accurate manner, even calling their vendors/suppliers to check price.
