How do you transition from residential to commercial work?
Answered by:
To start with you need to know what commercial electrical work is. Its a very tough market to compete in because so many people work out of there garage with no office. they just send guys straight to job. So no office is needed. Better know what your doing if you want to be competitive.

Hi Keith:
Good point. As a mid size company with an office, support staff and more overhead it is sometimes hard to compete with the electrician who has no overhead. We also have the problem of competitors under pricing the job just to get the work which in my opinion undervalues our trade.
