Business is booming for contractors, most seeking new employees
Time of year and stimulus funding means there is plenty of commercial and private work
COSHOCTON – Construction and remodeling is a booming business currently and the COVID-19 pandemic has something to do it with it.
While local contractors said people often do such projects in the spring, the available funding to do so is more than usual. This includes stimulus money for individuals and CARES Act funding for government agencies leading to capital projects or freeing up other money for such projects. Bill Dunfee of Cross Builders said he knows when new stimulus checks hit, because he starts getting calls for home improvements.
