Subbed out a big LVP job in north Jersey and cleared $8k profit

Just wrapped up subbing a 2,000 sq ft luxury vinyl plank install to a guy I know from the Flooring Contractors Network group. We're in north Jersey, zone 5 winters mean we gotta use Coretec Plus for that good click-lock system to handle the expansion. Charged the homeowner $12k total, paid the sub $4k for his crew and materials, pocketed the rest without breaking a sweat. Been doing this solo for years but subcontracting lets me take on bigger gigs without the backache. Saw a similar setup on r/Flooring where someone bragged about their margins, figured I'd try it. Tommy Mello talks about scaling like this on his Insta, and damn if it ain't working. Proud as hell, finally hit six figures this year off jobs like this.

That's the way to do it man, scaling smart without hiring full-time headaches.

NGL I been subbing LVP jobs for 5 years now, same grind but the checks clear faster.

Customer called at 8pm asking why the sub's truck was there, explained it and she was cool.

Sub guys always show up late, pisses me off every damn time.

Tried subbing a Coretec job last month, guy botched the transitions and I had to fix it myself.

Insurance companies HATE when you sub out, premiums go up if they smell risk.

Same here in the east, subs save my ass during peak season.

Subcontracting epoxy floors is a nightmare, always some spill drama.

Clearing $8k on one job? Sign me up, teach me your ways.

My sub flaked on a vinyl job, lost the whole contract.

Haha, north Jersey traffic probably added an extra day to that install.

Use Housecall Pro for tracking subs, keeps everything organized.

Customer thought the sub was my apprentice, got a good laugh explaining.

Frustrated with subs quoting low to steal my clients.

Man, I feel you on the profit jump, just subbed my first LVP gig.

Watched a Tile Tutorials TikTok on sub management, changed my whole approach.

Big insurance screwing over small ops like us, it's BS.

Lol, yeah zone 5 means acclimating that LVP for a week or it buckles.

Keep subbing, it's the future for us independents.

Haha, my sub brought the wrong glue once, turned into a comedy show.

Solid move, congrats on the win.
