Simple question for Experienced Flippers

I am in the process of finishing up my first two flips.  I used a general contractor for each of them.  Moving forward, I would like to connect with other contractors who can complete rehab projects for me.

Should I continue looking for GC referrals and use solo GC's?  Or should I start looking into Construction companies?

In Facebook groups, I see people referring legit sounding companies to do the GC work.  I'm talking about companies with real websites, what appears to be multiple employees, and facebook groups that look credible.

@Wesley Davis would they take on $30k-$60k rehab projects?  I'm assuming there's at least one in my market that will.

IMO I'd rather pay more for guaranteed work, completion with few headaches, and very timely completion.  My first two flips are taking significantly longer than they should and costing me a lot each month so I'm thinking that a more professional company finishing a rehab in half the time is worth every penny.
