I live in Spring (Montgomery Co.) Texas and am relatively new to GMRS.  I would like to install a tall antenna on my roof or atop a very tall pipe (metal or PVC) that would be braced to my house.  I am looking for a professional service to erect the antenna and to draw the coax antenna wire through the roof or through an eve into the attic and then down a wall to a connection socket inside my home office.  Obviously, I want to find someone who is familiar with GMRS.  If you do this kind of work in my area, or if you an recommend someone for me to contact, I would be most grateful.

No idea as I installed mine myself.

Google commercial radio companies in your area or contact an electrical contractor and ask if they have LMR experience.

Unfortunately very few do antenna installs anymore, ever since everything went streaming for tv services, and tv uhf/vhf antennas were the bulk of the work for antenna installers. Not to say there may not be anyone in your area who will do it but it is not a common thing as it once was.

 

  Besides contacting electricians, if you have a local ham radio club try contacting them and asking them, they might have much better information on who in your area does such installs, and many of them are fairly friendly though not all.
