Wait till the fires are out in California, and they will need contractors to rebuild the thousands of homes damaged... there won't be very many left to do the work...

I had my roof replaced on a 2200 sqft house... they striped the roof and re-roofed all in one day... All Mexicans... and they did a great job... I didn't ask if any of them where here illegally and I don't care if they were... they worked hard and did a great job.
