Window & Door Installer Independent Contractor (1099)

Position Summary

Clear Choice USA of Owensboro is looking for an experienced, reliable window and door installer to work as an independent contractor on an as-needed, per-job basis. This is not an employee position — the Contractor operates their own independent business, controls how the work gets done, and is free to accept, decline, or schedule jobs around other work. Compensation is paid per window or door installed, not as an hourly wage.

Scope of Work

● Install residential replacement windows and/or doors according to manufacturer specifications and standard industry practice

● Accurately verify measurements against the job order prior to installation, and flag any discrepancies before proceeding

● Remove and properly dispose of old windows/doors as specified for each job

● Supply own tools, ladders, and standard installation equipment

● Supply own reliable vehicle for transporting materials and traveling between job sites

● Complete each installation in a timely, workmanlike manner and leave the job site clean

● Communicate professionally and respectfully with customers while on site

● Provide advance notice of availability to Clear Choice USA of Owensboro so customer installation appointments can be scheduled accordingly

● Promptly report completed jobs so they can be invoiced and paid on the regular weekly schedule

● Return to correct any installation-related issue identified during the warranty/callback period

Qualifications

● Prior hands-on experience installing residential windows and/or doors required

● Own transportation and standard hand and power tools required to perform the work

● Ability to read and accurately execute job specifications and measurements

● Valid driver's license

● Must carry general liability insurance; must carry workers' compensation coverage for any helpers/employees the Contractor brings to a job site, as required by Kentucky law

● Must complete and return IRS Form W-9 before any payment is issued

Independent Contractor Relationship

This engagement is structured as an independent contractor relationship, not employment. By accepting work under this arrangement, the Contractor acknowledges and agrees that:

● The Contractor determines the means, methods, and sequence of performing the installation work, consistent with manufacturer requirements and the agreed job scope

● The Contractor is free to accept or decline any individual job offered, and may perform similar work for other companies or customers

● Scheduling is coordinated in advance so customer appointments can be booked, but the Contractor decides which available dates/jobs to accept and is not required to accept any particular date

● The Contractor is paid per unit installed (a set fee per window and per door), not an hourly or salaried wage

● The Contractor is solely responsible for their own federal and state income taxes and self-employment tax; no taxes are withheld from payments

● The Contractor is not eligible for employee benefits through this engagement, including health insurance, paid time off, unemployment insurance, or company-provided workers' compensation coverage

● The Contractor will receive an IRS Form 1099-NEC reporting total payments for the calendar year, provided a completed W-9 is on file

Compensation & Payment Terms

● Paid a set fee per window installed and a set fee per door installed, per the current rate sheet provided before work begins

● Payment is issued weekly, on Fridays, for jobs completed during the previous week

● Payment is issued only for completed, approved work
