What TradePayFL Actually Shows You
TradePayFL displays a small set of pay figures for trades in Florida, pulled from government wage data. It does not cover every trade or every city, and it does not track your personal earnings.
- $104,730 median pay for an elevator installer/repairer in Florida — the best-paid trade on this list (BLS OES, May 2025).
- $50,540 median pay for an HVAC technician in Tampa Bay (BLS OES, May 2025).
- $77,180 earned by the top 10% of Florida electricians (BLS OES, May 2025).
Is TradePayFL Free?
No. TradePayFL is not free. It has three paid plans, priced at $9, $99, and $299. The material available does not say whether anything you type into the tool is saved. Before you enter sensitive information, check the tool's own privacy policy.
Are These Numbers a Promise About My Paycheck?
No. Each figure is a median or a top-earner number for an entire occupation across Florida or a metro area — not a guarantee about what you, personally, will earn. Actual pay depends on your employer, your experience, and where you work.
This is not financial or career advice. Treat these numbers as a starting point, not a promise.
Where Does the Data Come From?
All three figures come from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (BLS OES), May 2025 release. You can check each original number yourself:
What This Tool Does Not Do
TradePayFL reports BLS pay statistics for a handful of trades. It does not tell you which trade to choose, and it does not give personalized career, financial, or legal advice.
For decisions about your own path, certifications, or income, check with a career counselor or a professional in that field. This page is not legal, medical, or tax advice.
What to Do Next
You can use the tool to look up pay figures tied to your own trade, location, and any documents or numbers you already have, instead of relying only on general averages. Remember it is a paid tool, not a free one, and confirm any figure you see against the original BLS source before making a decision. When in doubt, check with the relevant agency or a qualified professional.
