John sits down with Tyler Griffin (Swift Pro Heating, Cooling & Plumbing) to unpack how he launched a fast-growing HVAC + Plumbing startup in one of the most competitive markets in America: Washington, D.C./Northern Virginia. From selling his previous exterior business to private equity, taking a six-month reset, and then sprinting from zero to multi-million in year one, Tyler shares the gritty playbook—reviews over revenue early, Angie Ads to jumpstart demand, vendor partnerships (hello, Trane/Ferguson), dialing memberships, and building leaders who model → mentor → multiply.They get tactical on launching from scratch instead of buying, recruiting in a saturated market, wiring culture for speed, standing up next-day installs, and using Nexstar's OPEX roadmap to avoid the common HVAC pitfalls. If you're eyeing a greenfield launch or adding a second trade, this one's a field guide.

Every service technician can fix things...but not every tech is a true problem solver. In this episode of Windshield Time, Chris Elmore and Jesse Olson break down what problem solving really means in the trades. It's not just diagnosing and repairing — it's about translation, communication, and trust. Too many techs either exaggerate the danger or minimize the value of their work. Both erode trust. Customers don't just want something fixed — they want to understand the problem, the risks, the options, and why your solution is worth it. Chris and Jesse explain why translation (not just explanation) is the technician's most overlooked skill, how to use analogies without cheapening your value, and why presenting clear options helps customers make the right decision without pressure or manipulation. If you're in HVAC, plumbing, or electrical, this episode will sharpen your communication skills and show you how to go from just fixing problems to building customer confidence for life. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why technical excellence is the foundation of problem-solving How to set expectations and build trust with customers The dangers of exaggerating or minimizing repairs Why translation—not just explanation—is the real technician's edge How to use analogies wisely (and avoid ones that kill trust) Why presenting clear options helps customers choose with confidence How permanent solutions rely on both skill and communication

In this episode of the Make Trades Great Again podcast, hosts Eric and Andy delve into the complexities of servicing a geothermal heat pump that has faced multiple misdiagnoses and service challenges.

The conversation highlights the struggles within the industry and the responsibility of technicians to provide honest and effective service.Send us a textSend us your feedback or topic ideas over on our social channels!Eric Aune @mechanicalhub Andy Mickelson @mick_plumbNewsletter sign up: https://bit.ly/MH_email

Over the last five years, Steve Carroll scaled Kelso Industries from zero to $1.1–$1.2B top line with 3,500+ employees across mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) — powered by 29 acquisitions and an “empowered, decentralized” operating model. In this wide-ranging conversation, Steve and John unpack the Kelso flywheel (construction ➜ retrofit ➜ maintenance ➜ service), how to choose what to centralize vs. decentralize, why leadership pipelines matter more than playbooks, and the realities of integrating owner-led companies at scale. We also dig into data center demand, non-union strategy, and the “survival mode” moments that nearly derailed the journey.If you're thinking about multi-location expansion, commercial/industrial MEP, or acquiring while operating, this one's a blueprint.What You'll Learn-The Kelso flywheel: use construction as an entry point, expand into retrofit, sell maintenance, earn lifetime service-29 acquisitions without breaking culture: partnering with operators, light-touch integrations, and when to standardize-Centralize vs. decentralize: cash & risk centralization; empower branches on P&L, customers, and ops-Building leadership pipelines (trades & military) to keep growth from stalling-Data centers & industrial demand: where the growth is and what capabilities matter- How a billion-dollar platform still treats growth like survival

Audrey Korte, the reporter at the heart of the mistake, recently broke her silence in an interview with Isthmus. Host Bianca Martin talks with Isthmus editor Judith Davidoff about Korte's story and what local media can learn from it. 

Every service technician learns the trade, but not every tech becomes great. Why? Because technical skills alone won't cut it. In this episode of Windshield Time, Chris Elmore and Jesse Olson (owner of The Happy Outlet) break down the 3 roles that separate great technicians from average ones: Client Delighter: Customers remember the experience more than the repair. Problem Solver: Clear communication and long-term solutions matter as much as technical fixes. Revenue Producer: Stewardship, efficiency, and profitability fuel growth for both the company and the tech. You'll also learn why practice and preparation matter as much in the trades as they do in pro sports or medicine — and how techs can apply discipline to build lasting careers. If you're in HVAC, plumbing, or electrical and want to move from “good” to “great,” this episode gives you the roadmap.
