Mike - David the owner did a fantastic job rough wiring my addition. He was on time, explain his plans very clearly and completed the job on time and budget. I would highly recommend this electrician for residential work at anyone's house.
The question is great for some industries and non-applicable for others. A general contractor, for example, will by definition employ subcontractors. Most Springfield Electrical companies do not, but there are exceptions. You should always ask this question to your service providers. If they do use subcontractors, ask if they're all licensed and insured independently.
These first two questions should only relate to services or good purchased directly from the service provider. Many products carry their own warranties, like roofing shingles or siding. It's useful to know what these warranties cover as well as how long they last. The "warranty agent" question is important, because often warranty agents work with the manufacturer to get you repairs under warranty at a much lower price.
Always ask for references, and always check them. Keep in mind though that the only references you'll get are people who the contractor is certain will give him a good review. You'd also be well advised to check online review sources in Springfield as well, which will give you a broader view of customer satisfaction for a given company.
This is important mostly for larger jobs. Clearly a two man operation is going to build a home much slower than a 15 man crew. This is also a good indication of the overall size of the Electrical company, if that's an area of concern for you. The reason you may want to ask about the fleet is that fleet size is a good indicator of the mobility of the company. Mobility may not sound important, but it's hard for the Springfield contractors to get to job sites if they lack appropriate vehicles.
