How many of you guys are involved in commercial work? What percentage of commercial work do you do verses residential?

I don't do much commercial anymore.

When I was a Sm, and GM for a small company, we were 70 resi, and 30% light commercial.

I don't do too much commercial, too old for that stuff. Used up 7 of my 9 lives almost falling off ladders with commercial.

We service a few commercial clients, but not many. Most ofour workload latley on the heating side is troubleshooting and repair replacement work on hydronics.

Our company dies commercial work but I've only been involved in Residential so far. As I get more experience I'll be doing both.

I am with Nascar, I like delaing with the GC's and owners, homeowners are hard to deal with, schedule and they want to negociate the price once your done. Not all of them, but that has been my experience in the past. I respect the residential guys, they have a lot to deal with.

I love commerical too.

I do about 35% commercial work and the other 65% is residential work. I have experienced price negotiations with both sectors after the job has been completed. The hard part is figuring out who is going to haggle price with you before the contract is completed.

EBarger

evapman

about 80 - 20 residental, would really like to do all commercial, so much easyer to deal with.

EBarger

I work in our Commercial department and only work on commercial projects. I am completely happy with this arrangement and prefer not to deal with home owners as well. The only home owners I like dealing with is those building custom homes. They usually want the best and do not mind paying well to get it.
