Let's talk flooring!
Former Piece Worker, Now What?
I'm not sure if this is the right spot for this post. I figured someone might have some experience at this in Indiana.
I was a piece worker for a company in Maryland doing mostly carpet and now I moved to Indiana. I have always worked as a piece worker for a company. Now I need to find work as a sub or just do my own work.
My question is: Does anybody know the process of becoming a flooring sub contractor or an independent contractor in Indiana?
I know I need insurance but I don't know if I need any licenses or if I need to start an LLC to operate.
Trying to operate legally, not everybody likes to pay in cash. haha

you can also register a company name as a DBA, this will allow you to open a bank account in the company name and accept checks for payment,
forming a LLC can be both beneficial and a nuisance, if you are married, put the company in your wifes name and have her pay you through a payroll service each week, this will allow her to pay for un-employement insurance and also for workmans comp, that you can collect on if your injured, You cannot legally collect on WC insurance by insuring yourself. General liability runs somewhere around 3 to5 hundred for standard policy to cover damage etc.
hope this helps out some, best bet is to contact the state tho to make sure you comply with all regs
