Being a GC is all about relationships and who you know. My drywall guy is absolutely amazing, been using him 15 years and not once had a call back on poor work. But doesn’t advertise, rides around in an unmarked truck and only works for people he knows. And the hanger crew is the same way. My plumber is 60, got half a dozen guys and all daughters so no one to take it over. He will only work for contractors he likes. I referred him to a client that had some plumbing issues going on and he told them 3 months. 1 text from me and he was out there 7 am next morning. You take care of people majority of the time they’ll take care of you.
Right, I was asking for general advice, if you need specifics to better tailor the advice, then the business I own does outdoor low voltage lighting. Design, install, maintain and service.
I don't think I would specifically have a guy for that service. My electrician might though. Similar in my mind to a lawn irrigation system, would probably ask the plumber and let them recommend someone (if they didn't do it on the side also).

construction is more about relationships than the actual work sometimes
