Looking for a company/plumber to sub-meter the water in a duplex

Hello BP,

I need to sub-meter the water in a duplex.  Does anyone have any leads for doing this work?  I started cold-calling from the web and have not found even a single business that will even entertain the idea.  If someone can help me narrow down the search I would appreciate it.

@Eric Rasmussen metering requires licenses and permits. It is expensive and the plumbers don't think you will follow through with the job. I just bake it into the rents in my duplex's.

Thank you for the reply.  I get it.  I've been baking it in for over a decade.  It works, but I am ready to make the change.  If you hear of anyone capable, please pass them on.
