re: my $90 electrician:
Guys, guys! You can't equate all markets. $90 is the middle rate around here, topping out @ about $125. He's the first totally honest one I found.
And no, I'm not a GC. He direct bills and it's all his. I'm a painter/cabinmaker/designer. I do all the surface work, trim and built-ins, or combo thereof. All in existing homes only. I had to have a rubber stamp made for the back of my card to tell decorators, GC's and architects to foff. Double-dippin', one-trick-pony scum, but I'm not bitter about that anymore. Really.
