Default Why do contractors subcontract electricians?

Suppose you are remodeling your kitchen and all the necessary circuits

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


You're joking, right?

What's your next question?
Why do contractors buy lumber instead of cutting down trees and running
a sawmill in the backyard?
