As a side note, we had estimates from T&D and Kilcrease, T&D was higher, and the deal breaker was they were a MONTH longer on the estimated completion date. We went with Kilcrease (subbed out to Sweeting LLC), and they were good to their word, start to finish, ~800 sq. ft. of birdcage in 2 weeks from ground breaking to inspection.
So when you get estimates, check on expected completion date if this is important to you.
I agree with the comments on T&D as they did 2 of my neighbors, however, I did see how long they took, and while I DO NOT have direct knowledge, it appears there were different (possibly subbed out) crews for each phase of the project, which might explain the extended construction period.
Hope this helps.
