They are essentially functioning as your General Contractor and you're not paying them for that work ... it's "free". They are insured. Their installers aren't always the best, but usually they're fairly competent. Kitchens & Baths are their specialty, but they do other things, too.

What you say is true but personally, I'd skip the big box stores.
