I’m doing a project that’s going to require a lot of web interaction with contractor and subs. Does anyone have experience with individual electricians or plumbers that are not only good but also web savvy and comfortable interacting online? I’d welcome other types of service providers too if you’ve got them. Thanks!

I don’t think there are any plumbers like that out there.

I would consider hiring  a construction-manager-type person that you can communicate with like you describe, but that they could deal with a typical plumber/electrician directly.  My 2 cents.

The type of communication wouldn’t be overly technical stuff. The GC would handle managing the project itself. This would really just be low level Q&A (email, maybe text). Looking for responsive, good with customers types with the tech skills obviously.
