No real job costing
Without costs tracked by project, you cannot tell which jobs make money and which quietly lose it. We cost every job and phase, so your margins are clear before the next bid.
Construction
Bookkeeping for Construction Companies
Job costing, progress billing, retainage, and WIP, tracked job by job. We keep your construction books accurate so you always know which projects actually make money.
Why it's different
The bookkeeping headaches unique to construction
WIP and over/under billing
Work-in-progress and over- or under-billing get complicated fast and distort your financials. We keep accurate WIP schedules so your books reflect real progress, not just invoices.
Retainage slipping through
Retainage held back on invoices hides cash and skews revenue. We track retainage receivable and payable so nothing gets lost and you collect what you are owed.
Change orders that never get billed
Change orders pile up and slip past billing, so you eat the cost. We keep them documented and billed, so you get paid for the work you actually did.

It's just one less thing on my plate. I get an email at month-end to review my books, I add a few comments, and that month is done. I never have to worry about it again.
