2015 Tax Question

[Shuai Zeng]

Hi All,

So I'm late on the W9 with the tax season closing soon. My contractor said he's ok with the W9 since he'll be doing 1099. I just called the company that did the plumping, which their ok with it took. About half hour ago, I talked to the roofing company. They told me they don't do taxes. I'm lost on that, since I spend 5.6k on roof last year to have it replace. Is roofing itself tax deductible? 

Also should I should I do 1099 on these?

Pest - Termites done ($1500)

Electric - Amp box upgrade ($1200)

@Shuai Zeng - you should send a 1099-MISC to each contractor that was paid $600 or more in any given year. So all of the ones you posted should get the 1099. 

Here is a very recent thread that discusses missing Tax ID:
