Contractors
Reliable bookkeeping support for contractors and trade businesses.
Your books need to reflect real job costs, subcontractor payments, and equipment overhead — not just income and expenses. We bring that level of detail.
Trade businesses we work with
Contractors and trade businesses operate differently from retail or service businesses — and their books should reflect that. Job costs, subcontractor payments, equipment depreciation, retainage, and multi-month projects all create bookkeeping complexity that a generic setup won't handle well.
What gets messy in contractor bookkeeping
Subcontractor and 1099 tracking
Subcontractor payments need to be categorized correctly and tracked for year-end 1099 filing. We handle that as part of regular bookkeeping.
Equipment and material expenses
Materials, tool purchases, equipment rental — these need to be correctly coded to give you an accurate picture of job profitability.
Progress billing
Multi-phase jobs with milestone billing create timing differences in your books. We track it so revenue recognition stays accurate.
Books behind at year-end
Many contractors go into tax season with incomplete books. A catch-up project gets everything current so your CPA has what they need.
