Construction Bookkeeping
Job costing, work-in-progress, retainage and certified payroll — bookkeeping built for contractors and construction businesses.

Construction bookkeeping is project accounting. Costs and revenue have to be tracked by job, work-in-progress reported, retainage handled and — where it applies — certified payroll run correctly.
We keep the job-level detail clean so you know which projects are profitable while they’re still running, not months after they close.
What we handle
- Job costing — costs and revenue tracked by project
- WIP schedules — work-in-progress reported properly
- Retainage — held amounts tracked on both sides
- Certified payroll — run correctly where required
- Subcontractor 1099s — tracked and filed

Profit by job, not just overall
A construction business can look fine overall while individual jobs quietly lose money. Without job-level costing, you find out too late.
We keep the books at the job level so profitability is visible per project, in time to act on it.
