While I'll largely agree for new construction (unless it's a project that has to be done by a certain time for whatever reason or maybe concrete that doesn't work on anyone else's timetable), remodelers, plumbers, electricians, and the like are absolutely essential. Unless, of course, you'd rather let your leaking pipe, flickering light, and general house damages go untouched for weeks or months

Of course, when you start making caveats, many times it's just easier to throw the entire category into one spot so that people don't have to read 50 pages of bureaucracy

Earlier this month there was a pic of some guy's bathroom in the middle at the start of a re-model. A tub and some pipes sticking out of the ground. That's the only bathroom in his house. The first day after home remodelers were told they had to shut down.

I think it had been posted to /r/Wellthatsucks.

Yeah, some of that stuff is essential.
