Electrician Question - Is it true that if an electrician does the rough-in they also have to do the finishing?
Doing a complete gut renovation project which involved rough-in electrical work of running new circuits and moving lighting/receptacles etc. Obviously something of this scope I hired a licensed electrician to do it.
The electrician I'm working with let me know that under the ESA rules, the electrician that does the rough-in is required to also do the finishing.
Now, I've worked with this electrician before and I genuinely like working with them and find that they do quality work, but at the same time I'm handy enough to do basic things like installing ceiling light fixtures and receptacles and was planning on doing those myself and just have him do the harder finishing stuff. But I have this weird gut feeling where he's just saying this to make additional money.
I couldn't find anything googling around that backs up the ESA rule that he's referring to. Can anyone else here confirm if this rule exists?
