You can double or maybe triple your repair rates.

I would be working for an established co,willing to train me,hourly wage is about $5 more an hour

[jumptrout]

Go for it.

Further your knowledge.

If they're willing to train you on the commercial side I would say it's worth trying and gaining that knowledge.

I'm no expert, but rather than dealing with residents, etc ..

I'd rather deal with business owners / managers ...

They may have more money

They may be in more of a hurry ($$$)  to

"fix the fridge, my meat will spoil"

"fix the air conditioning system, my customers are getting angry"

etc ..

Thanks for the advice,been kinda bored for awhile now in residential-maybe change is what's needed...

[certified tech group 51]

I do about 80% residential ........ 15% commercial/restaurants......and 5%  coin-op laundromats..........The comm/rest. they do not complain about the bill.............They want it fixed, now..... Reg is correct on a few items......Frozen steaks and sea food is expensive to throw out if spoiled............An oven is an oven and refrigeration is refrigeration...........Just bigger......Most of it is plain simple stuff...................................But, I hate having to work around the deep fryers/ ovens during business hours......
