Home-service contractors in Laredo, TX

Other home service is Laredo's largest trade, and three of every five records this site holds here sit in it. It holds more than three times as many records as HVAC, the next largest.

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

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

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

One Laredo 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, Laredo carries far fewer home-service records than Texas as a whole, across all eleven trades summed together.

Against Texas's own mix, Laredo is heaviest in HVAC: that trade takes a far larger share of this metro than of the state.

Even Laredo's thinnest trade against Texas, other home service, sits close to the state share.

Of the Laredo trades with a measured licensed share, HVAC links to an active state licence most often and electrical least often. That spread measures how well two files join here, not whether either row's businesses hold a licence.

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

Almost every Laredo record sits inside the state whose licence file its share is computed from, so that share covers nearly the whole metro.

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

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

Electrical carries Laredo's largest published employment count: the occupational series counts 340 workers across the metro, and this site publishes 14 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 and plumbing follow it.

Of the Laredo records that are not independent, corporate-owned locations outnumber franchise brands and concentrate in other home service; the most franchised trade here is painting.

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

Other home service is the Laredo trade whose records most often carry no street address, and HVAC the one whose records most often do. What a blank street line means is set out on the methodology page.

More Laredo 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.
