My husband is in the construction industry (electrician) and he has many friends who do construction work (foundation, painters, drywall, etc.).

Hello All,I need some work done on a house. I need floors to be put down, need a roof, landscaping work, painting, etc. I'm looking for contractors that work in the New Castle County, Delaware area. Any recommendation...

Plumbers, Drywallers, Painters, Electricians, Roofers, Carpet/Wood Floor installers, and Interior design specialist.

From reading some of your blogs, you appear to be a painter, handyman, property manager, and book keeper just to name a few.

I also hire plumbers/electricians and painters when needed. 

The multi-unit homes I see all need some amount of work, so I wonder how easy it is for a new member of the city to find reliable handy-folk, painters, etc. to help (this is a big challenge in the Bay Area).

Hire the painter.

Therefore, putting a device in before Sheetrock is not a good idea, for the electrician, the drywall contractor, or the painter.

It will be easy to find properties, but it may take a longer time to build your "team" of people, such as attorney, contractor, Realtors, painters, etc.
