If the DC in Steve's moniker means District of Columbia, then he would not be able to hire an NECA/IBEW electrical contractor for less than $170 and hour. I live in Arlington, VA and, coming from SC, am still pissed off every time I get a quote from a contractor of some type. Needless to say, I end up doing a lot of the work myself. The latest quote was to install a gas water heater (in a location 5 feet from the old one) for approximately $2,000. Give me a freakin' break!
