I'm going to be building a house near Rochester, NY. For a variety of reasons, my wife and I don't want a basement, and plan on a slab-on-grade. This seems to be causing all of the builders and plumbers to have a conniption fit.
How do I find a plumber who can competently rough-in slab plumbing for a house? All I can find are repair guys, and guys who expect a crawlspace or basement. I would guess that light commercial plumbers do slab plumbing all the time, but they don't advertise. There are some folks who don't do slabs regularly, but are willing to try, but that doesn't give me much confidence in their quality or pricing.
Thanks for your help,
John
