For me I found that it is easier this way because we constantly have projects waiting to get started I try to plan that no more than 2 weeks before the next project is started usually less than 1 week but you know how things go.With a general contractor the will bid the job do the job as they are working on other projects as well and then when things they quoted you are done thats it, it doesn't matter that the doors need trimmed because the carpet and pad are too thick, that the outlets need to be changed because now they look bad on a freshly painted wall, if it wasn't in the original qoute it is extra and they may not be able to get back to it for 2-6 weeks as they are already scheduled for their next job.
