From Foam to Freedom

Build a Business That Runs Without You

You weren’t built for the cage.
TUSK helps contractors escape owner-operator hell and build a business that gives freedom instead of taking it away.

Still Playing the Game

We’re not consultants. We’re contractors who built freedom.
TUSK isn't another consulting firm selling theory from the sidelines. We're two spray foam contractors who built our business from a garage startup—and we're still in the trenches every day.

After 19 years of figuring out what works (and what doesn't), we're sharing the playbook that took us from 60-hour weeks to true business freedom. Not because we've retired, but because we've built something that runs without us.

The Problem

Trapped in the Business You Built?
Most contractors don’t own a business.
They own a job that owns them.

You can’t take time off without chaos.
Everything depends on you.
Cash flow is stressful.
Growth feels risky instead of exciting.

You didn’t start a business for this.

What TUSK Does

We Help Contractors Escape the Cage
TUSK helps contractors move from owner-operator to true CEO.

We show you how to:
  • Build systems that run without you
  • Develop leaders, not just workers
  • Create predictable revenue and profit
  • Actually take time off without the wheels falling off
  • Transform from owner-operator to true CEO
This isn’t motivation. It’s transformation.

Our Framework

RAW · TREK · HERD
  • RAW
    We tell you the truth about where you are — even when it hurts.
  • TREK
    We guide you step by step from chaos to clarity. No guessing. No shortcuts.
  • HERD
    You don’t build freedom alone. We connect you with others on the same path.

Not Everyone Is Built for This

TUSK isn’t for contractors looking for shortcuts or comfort.
It’s for those ready to be honest about where their business is — and what it will take to build real freedom.

The Journey

The Three Phases of Freedom
Every contractor’s path to freedom follows the same pattern. Skip a phase and the business breaks. 
Take the Business Health Check

Foundation

Stop the bleeding. Get clarity. Build basic systems. Understand yourself and your people.

Freedom

Develop leaders. Create accountability. Build sales and operations that don’t rely on you.

Scale

Strategic growth. Multiple crews. Leadership depth. You own the business — it doesn’t own you.

The Other Half of the Picture

It's Important to Know Your Business. It's More Important to Know You.
The Business Health Check looks outward: your numbers, your systems, your team. This one looks inward — at the person running it.
Seven jobs sit inside every contracting company:
  • Finding the work.
  • Quoting and closing.
  • Planning and scheduling.
  • Being on the tools.
  • The people.
  • The money.
  • Building the business.

Does it fill you? Or does it drain you?

And are you actually any good at it?
Most owners have never separated those two questions, which is why so many end up spending the week working on work they're excellent at and quietly sick of.

That's the job the audit names.

Eight minutes. Fourteen questions. Nothing to buy at the end of it.

About TUSK

Built by Contractors, for Contractors
Before TUSK, Curt and Kevin were just contractors trying to survive the chaos they’d created.
Long hours. Endless decisions. Payroll stress. A business that couldn’t run unless they were in it every day.

Over 19 years, they turned that chaos into a company that operates without them — not through luck or hustle, but through people, systems, and hard-earned lessons. TUSK exists to give contractors a faster, clearer path to freedom — so you don’t have to learn everything the hard way.
