Home/Auto Repair/Problem

A mobile mechanic in Texas faces a 3-4 year apprenticeship requirement for A/C licensing, which they find unreasonable and a barrier to expanding their service offerings.

The EPA certification is quick, but state-level Texas licensing requires extensive apprenticeship time that doesn't align with the mobile mechanic's business model or timeline.
