Work on Your Terms.

HOW IT WORKS

What Subcontracting With Us Looks Like

You run your own business. We provide the clients, the brand, the systems, and the standards. You bring the skills, the tools, and the professionalism. A simple arrangement built for people who are serious about the trade.

YOUR STRUCTURE

1099 Independent

You operate as an independent contractor. Set your own schedule, accept jobs that work for you, and run your own business under our brand umbrella.

WHAT WE PROVIDE

Clients & Systems

We handle marketing, lead generation, client intake, and pricing. You show up to a scoped, priced job with a client who is already expecting you.

WHAT YOU PROVIDE

Skills & Tools

Your own tools, your own vehicle, and the skill to do the work right. You represent the Borrowed Husband brand on site and are held to our professional standards.

THE RIGHT FIT

What We Look For

Skills matter but so does how you carry yourself. Our clients are busy homeowners in one of the most affluent markets in North Texas. They expect professionalism from the moment you pull up to the moment you leave.

 

Proven Hands On Skill

Demonstrated experience in at least one core trade. You know how to do the work right and can back it up.

 

Reliability

You show up when you say you will. Clients plan their day around this appointment. A no show reflects on the brand and is not tolerated.

 

Client Communication

You are comfortable talking to homeowners, setting expectations upfront, and communicating problems before they become surprises.

 

Attention to Detail

You notice the crooked shelf. You wipe down the work area without being told. You do not leave until the job looks the way it should.

 

Respect for the Home

Boot covers on, drop cloths down, personal items untouched. You treat every client's home like it belongs to your best client.

 

Process Oriented

Scope confirmed before starting, changes documented before doing, payment collected before leaving. You follow the system every time.

 

 

NON NEGOTIABLES

The Borrowed Husband Standard

Every subcontractor who works under this brand represents it completely. When you are on a job, you are Borrowed Husband to that client. These standards are not flexible.

 

Uniform

Black Borrowed Husband hat and shirt on every job. Clean pants or shorts, no holes. Professional appearance from driveway to doorstep.

 

Conduct

Professional language at all times. No smoking or vaping on client property. No personal phone use while working. Act as if you are being recorded.

 

Site Care

Boot covers on entry. Drop cloths in work areas. Every job leaves the home cleaner than you found it. No exceptions.

 

Scope Control

No work performed outside the agreed estimate without a documented change order. Every add on gets a price before it gets done.

 

Quality

Self audit before the client walkthrough. Level, tight, clean, tested. If you would be uncomfortable walking away from it, keep working.

 

Integrity

Stay in rooms relevant to the job. Do not open what does not need to be opened. Build the kind of reputation that gets us all invited back.
