Meeting Repairmen While Working Full Time

I am managing 20 rental units while working a full-time corporate accounting job.  I'm able to do most of my management duties during my lunch breaks and in the evenings, with the exception of occasional phone calls and emails throughout the day.

My biggest challenge is meeting our handyman/contractors at the property for maintenance calls since the majority of them want do it during the 8-5 working day.  Is there any advice of what you have done so you don't have to go to the property with the contractor every time maintenance work needs done?  Do you require the tenant to miss work to be there?  Do you pay someone that you trust to be there the whole time?
