Suppose you are remodeling your kitchen and all the necessary circuits have been run from the electrical box to the kitchen. It seems like the rest is the easiest part of the project: setting up the electrical boxes and the switches, and connecting the devices. Then why do general contractors don't do that part themselves but still subcontract it out to the pricey electricians? I understand that they pass that cost to the homeowner, but still it would have been more profitable to it themselves.
What am I missing? I feel like there must be something about it that's not easy that I'm not seeing. I've been adding electrical outlets and installing fixtures and doing stuff like that myself since I bought the house and it's certainly easier than carpentry. Perhaps it's the regulations? Anyway, please let me know what you think.
