Florida Trade Contractor Financial Benchmark Report 2026 annual publication cover
Coming for the 2026 Trade Season

The Florida Trade Contractor Financial Benchmark Report

The first report measuring the real financial health of Florida's trade contractor market. Original data, drawn from Will Abberger's own client base and research — built to be the benchmark contractors check their numbers against, publishing for the first time in 2026.

Why This Report Exists

Contractors make financial decisions every day without knowing if their numbers are normal. Is a 32% gross margin for an HVAC company good or concerning? Should your cash reserve cover 4 weeks or 8? This report answers those questions with real Florida market data.
