Residential plumbers are called into homes to fix relatively easy problems like unblocking drains or fixing leaky pipes. The second benefit of residential plumbers is that they finish the job relatively quickly and proceed to other clients; this allows them to earn more than commercial plumbers, who typically can't do multiple jobs in a day. Residential plumbers are also more appreciated than commercial plumbers. Homeowners thank residential plumbers, while commercial plumbers aren't appreciated as much because their services are seen as unplanned expenses. The third benefit of residential plumbing is that there is no cash flow problem because clients pay immediately via cash, check, or credit card. In commercial plumbing, clients can pay after a couple of months, creating a cash flow problem for the company.
