Subcontracting out PEX installs to other plumbers - worth the hassle?

Man, been subcontracting out some of these PEX-A repipes to local guys while I handle the bigger commercial gigs, and it's starting to feel like more trouble than it's worth. I'm up in Minnesota and the winters make scheduling a nightmare, always dealing with frozen lines or delays from the last sub who ghosted me on a $2k job last month. Using SharkBite fittings helps speed things up, but coordinating with these other plumbers means I'm chasing payments and quality checks constantly. AFAIK, most folks in the trade say keep it in-house if you can, but solo ops like mine need the help sometimes. NGL, the markup on subs is decent, but the stress ain't. Anyone else dealing with unreliable subs on plumbing jobs?
