Home-service contractors in Asheville, NC

Other home service is Asheville's largest trade, and more than half of every record this site holds here sits in it. It holds more than three times as many records as landscaping, the next largest.

In order, Asheville's four largest trades are other home service, landscaping, electrical and HVAC. Other home service alone reaches half of every record on this page.

All eleven trades carry at least one record in Asheville. The smallest of them here is pool.

Asheville's three smallest trades are pool, pest control and painting. Between them they still hold a workable share of the metro.

One Asheville trade, pool, falls below the record floor a trade page has to clear, so it is answered on this page instead. Its count in the table is unchanged.

Per resident, Asheville sits close to the North Carolina rate, so the counts here read as ordinary for the state.

Plumbing takes a larger share of Asheville than of North Carolina, which is the clearest way this metro's mix departs from its state's.

Painting is thinner in Asheville than across North Carolina, the mirror of the lean above.

Read per resident, the top of the table does not move: other home service, landscaping and electrical are Asheville's three densest trades, and painting its thinnest.

No Asheville trade carries a measured licensed share, so every row of that column reads as not published rather than as zero.

No licence issuance or lapse figure is published for Asheville, so no churn figure appears here rather than a zero standing in for one.

A median hourly wage is published for plumbing, HVAC, electrical and roofing in Asheville. Of those, plumbing pays the most and roofing the least.

Cleaning, flooring, landscaping, other home service, painting, pest control and pool carry no wage figure for Asheville, so those rows are blank rather than filled from a neighbouring occupation.

Electrical carries Asheville's largest published employment count: the occupational series counts 860 workers across the metro, and this site publishes 99 electrical records here. The two count different things, one an occupation across every employer and the other the businesses on this site, so they stand side by side rather than one against the other. HVAC, plumbing and roofing follow it.

Asheville's franchise-brand and corporate-owned records are close to even. The franchised ones concentrate in flooring and the corporate-owned ones in pest control.

Within Asheville, electrical and landscaping are the most independently held trades and flooring the least.

Almost none of Asheville's records are waiting on chain review, so the independent, franchise and corporate counts here describe nearly the whole metro. HVAC holds what little of that bucket the metro has.

Landscaping is the Asheville trade whose records most often carry no street address, and roofing the one whose records most often do. What a blank street line means is set out on the methodology page.

More Asheville records first appeared over the last twelve months than were flagged closed, so the file for this metro grew. Cleaning added the largest share of new records and other home service lost the largest share to closed flags.

One city inside Asheville, Hendersonville, differs from the wider metro enough to carry pages of its own.
