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

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

Electrical carries Chattanooga's largest published employment count: the occupational series counts 1,760 workers across the metro, and this site publishes 102 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. Plumbing, HVAC and roofing follow it.

Of the Chattanooga records that are not independent, corporate-owned locations outnumber franchise brands and concentrate in pest control; the most franchised trade here is plumbing.

Within Chattanooga, landscaping and electrical are the most independently held trades and pest control the least.
