You subs here will kill you if you don't know what you are doing and/or have a good network in the area. I found that:

1. There are lots of handymen posing as knowedgeable subs.
2. Expect to pay MORE here than you would in a larger market like Birmingham or Atlanta. The best local subs are good but not as productive and that runs up their costs 20-40%.
3. You should really do your homework as to best practices. Smaller contractors are generally are smaller guys and don't have the luxury of time to keep up with all the changes in the industry.
4. Even in the best of circumstances subs will see you as a one-shot deal and will tack on a little extra.
5. If you are the GC be prepared to get your own insurance for WC & General Liability. Pay attention to this area.
6. Talk to your neighbors before starting construction near any property line. You will make a friend if you do and make an enemy if you don't.
7. Get a permit for the job but don't depend AT ALL on inspections.
