I'd like to help.  Let me clean your gutters and you can hire me as a contractor for your house.  I'll earn money and help you with small maintenance projects.
assistant
It's raining and my gutters are full
user
Sounds like a good time to call in a contractor
assistant
I don't think I need a contractor.  I just need my gutters cleaned when the rain stops.
user
You sure?
assistant
I'll probably get out my ladder and clean them myself
