I am setting out to make a vendor list for Inland Empire (plumbers, electricians, painters, etc.) and I am sort of starting from scratch.Anyone in the Inland Empire area already have any that they have relied on in the past and would recommend?

Another school of thought is to goto the local temp service and hire yourself some laborers and painters to do the bulk of the work -- and hire specific contractors for things that require permits.  

We have a faux painter we use for accents in our custom condos.

Hi @Moe Habib If you are looking to self-manage from a distance (completely doable) then yes, a good handyman, plumber, painter are essential. 

You'll also commonly find painters tape across the toilet and sink.

Reasonable if they are good painters...
