Title: Need plumber/electrician-suggestions?
Post by: Popeye the Sailor on October 03, 2009, 09:29:08 AM
Anyone have any good experience with a local plumber/electrician? I need both. Please recall I live out by La Honda (AKA middle of nowhere). Thanks!

Jammen? He can't. He knows less than I do. I need someone legitimate here-I need a new box in the loft and a new line dropped from the street.

I have an licensed electrician who lives on the Penninsula who has done/is doing work for us.  He's not bargain-basement, but his quotes are decent and he's contientious.  If you're interested, shoot me a PM.  

DanTheMan does (used to do) electrical work on the side too, but he's not licensed AFAIK.

PM sent.

DanTheMan does, but according to him this is beyond his scope, so I need to find someone else.

It may get complex too, as I need some of the circuit to still come from my house, so that I can keep the pump running for the well (the emergency generator is in the house).


The joys of the sticks. I'll be ready for the zombie apocalypse.

Ask your neighbors for referrals.  They're the most reliable resource for good workers in your area.  If you go onto some of those online resources--places with names like "Plumbers Network"--you can usually get three bids from reputable places with testimonials.  I just got a great quote on a new roof that way.  You're going to pay a premium for your location.  The work you want to have done isn't all that complicated--in fact, it's the norm for folks living out in the boonies.  Don't let anyone tell you differently or charge you too much for it.

check with kaveh ... he's a general contractor, and should know/work with plumbing and electrical contractors in your area.
