Robert I live like 30 minutes from there. Are you part of MassLandlords? That is a great LL Advocate website for us in MA, I recommend you to join and also they have an area where they list contractors. Maybe Steve, Lynn, RentsDue, Beth or Johnnie and others from our area can chip in. --98.216.xx.xxx

I sorta classify my contractors into two categories....the one licensed trades and the unlicensed groups.

Please don't cut yourself short with the licensed folks by trying to go cheap on them. These folks have more than enough work that they really don't need to put up that much BS

As for the handyman level work, well there you might be able to find a bargain. That said you will get speed, quality or price.......and you can pick only two so you need to be able to communicate what you are expecting

So often, I hear a LL unsatisfied with a contractor. I have to wonder how many of these are not communication issues --24.101.xxx.xxx

Here lately I would be thrilled to get two of the three. I am barely able to get one.

Speaking of which, time to go babysit the roofers. --107.147.xx.xxx

Robert let me know how goes finding the person.

Also, email me at LordZen1980 AT Gmail DOT com to share one person I have, I haven't worked with him directly but I have seen his jobs, he has a license. I have one with and one without a license.

Ray-N-Pa that is a good idea, I will implement it, Thanks --98.216.xx.xxx

I will keep you posted, I now also am looking for someone who can repair/install a window for me. So, just a whole lot of looking around and digging for something credible. --24.218.xxx.xx

Ray-N-Pa - that is a good thing to keep in mind. I will think on that, I have a licensed plumber and he seems like he would be helpful. So I am looking to use him for future projects. --24.218.xxx.xx

I agree it is wise to use licensed people for stuff requiring licenses - usually

I have a plumber who USED to be licensed, who works at Lowes now (in the plumbing dept) and does plumbing on the side.

He's excellent, stays up with codes. --68.229.xxx.xxx

I actually heard of someone who managed to find a great plumber at Home Depot too. Maybe I need to ask all the employees lol. --24.62.xxx.xxx
