Independent specialists — California
Work with Nexta in Greater Los Angeles Built-in refrigeration, washers, dryers, ovens and cooktops
You do the repair. We do everything that isn't.
Ads, phone, photos, model labels, price talk, no-shows — ours.
Diagnosis, the price on site, the work, the money in your hand — yours.
What do you work on, and which city?
What you keep
Paid the day you do the job, cash or card, from the customer's hand. Not next Friday. Not after we clear it. We never touch your money — there is nothing for us to hold.
You keep $450 of a $950 job. Parts at your cost on top — parts are never split.

Diagnostic visit: you set the fee. The customer pays you on site.
If they decline repair: the visit fee is yours — it covers the empty run.
If repair goes ahead: you fold it into the ticket. Your split, your rules.
Three jobs cover a professional tool set and every piece of paper you need to start.
Six of our highest tickets — built-in refrigeration, commercial, kitchen and premium coffee. Not a promise, our own numbers.
Other technicians already work this way. Take a job and see.

Why these calls aren't empty
The usual run: you drive out blind, open it up, name a price — and hear "I'll think about it."
An empty run isn't gas money. It's the slot where a $400 job could have been. Two of those a week and you worked a month of Saturdays for free.
Shared leads run $10–40 and get sold to four contractors. Exclusive ones $30–80. We buy ours and hand them to one technician. You never see that bill.
Tell me your city and what you work on — that's what the ads run for.
Here you get the fault, the photos, the model label and the address — and a customer who already knows the range and said yes to it.
You're not selling the price at the door. It was sold before you got there.
You name the final price on site, once you've opened it up. That part is yours.
You're not doing this alone
Estanislao
I started with one job and my own tools. Then I stopped keeping up and began passing jobs to other guys. Four markets and thirty-one people later, you still get me in this chat.
Two of them run whole trades now — coffee machines and handyman work. Both came in as ordinary hires, same as I did.
Setting up solo for the first time? I walk you through it in order — filing, city business license, insurance, EPA 608 — one step at a time. Nothing you have to piece together from a government website at midnight.
Once your paperwork is done, you're in the chat with the rest of our technicians. Sub-Zero sealed systems, Jura brew groups, columns most shops turn away — someone in there has already been inside the one you're looking at. That's not support hours. That's people who do this every day.
Stuck on a machine? You call, and I put you on the phone with a technician who has already opened that model. Same machines, same faults — a Thermador column in Brentwood is a Thermador column in Beverly Hills.
When a job fits, you agree the window with the customer and run it on your terms.
First job with us, I stay on the line. After that, only when you want me.
What you need to start in California
California registers appliance repair through BHGS — not a contractor licence for most home appliances. An LLC, a city business license, BHGS registration and liability insurance, and you're working.
Your city and trade change what's on the list. Open it below, or ask us in chat and we'll send yours.
The full list — home appliances
- LLC or DBA + EIN
- City business license in your service city
- BHGS Appliance Service Dealer registration — $190/location/year
- General liability insurance — $1M/$2M is what we ask for
- EPA 608 Type I if you touch residential refrigerant — federal, does not expire
- Sales tax registration if you sell parts
Confirm figures with a California accountant before you file — especially sales tax on parts and your city's business license rules.
Commercial refrigeration and HVAC
Both run on a CSLB C-20 licence in California:
- Four years of journey-level experience, at least one year as foreman, journeyman or contractor
- CSLB Law & Business exam plus trade exam — 72% to pass
- General liability $1M per occurrence / $2M aggregate
- Workers' comp or a valid exemption on file
- EPA 608 Type II or Universal for commercial refrigeration sealed systems
Already hold it? That opens walk-ins, reach-ins, prep tables and ice machines — the highest tickets we run.

Rules don't change retroactively
- 50/50 from job one.
- No entry fee. No lead fee.
- There's no tier to lose, because there are no tiers. Fifty is fifty, from job one to job five hundred.
- Changes only move forward, with notice ahead of time.
- We keep the number of technicians per city low on purpose. The work in your area is finite — spread it thin and nobody makes money on it.
Get started
Write to us — chat or Telegram.
- What do you work on, and which city?
- Two questions back from us. A couple of minutes.
- The checklist for your trade, the same day.
- You file what's missing — or nothing, if you're already set up.
- You're in the chat with the rest of our technicians.
- First job.
- After that, I know what you're good at — and what comes to you narrows to that.
Set up already, or starting from zero — either way, tell us and we'll take it from there.
Write now. I'll answer within fifteen minutes — I handle every request that comes in myself. Stuck on a part or a model? I'll tell you who to call and what to look for.
