I was up your way the other day and I stopped at a Lowe's and saw they were hiring flooring installers. I think this is what your husband does if so he might want to look into it if he needs side work. I worked at Lowe's back in the day and I know we paid our installer over 60K a year in jobs. The only thing your husband needs is the liability insurance which is cheap and the tools. Also just so you know you don't actually work for Lowe's you are a contractor that they hire to do jobs for them. If your interested let me know which store it would be and I might know someone there. I started working for Lowe's when there was just 47 stores and they just starting to grow those were the days. Anyways just thought I'd throw that out there have a great day.
