Sound Familiar?
Running a construction business is hard enough without wondering if you're actually making money on your jobs.
Not Sure Which Jobs Make Money
You finish a job and get paid, but you're never quite sure if you actually made money on it. Labor, materials, subs, change orders. Without job costing, it's impossible to know. We track costs by project so you can see exactly where your margins are.
The Books Are Months Behind
Tax season is approaching and you haven't reconciled since spring. Maybe longer. We take over, work through the backlog, and get everything current. Then we keep it that way going forward.
Payroll Is Getting Complicated
More crew members, more withholdings, more deadlines. You've been handling it yourself but one mistake with the IRS or an upset employee isn't worth the risk. We take over payroll so you can focus on the job site.
Cash Flow Doesn't Match Revenue
Jobs are coming in, clients are paying, but the bank account never seems to reflect it. Progress billing, retainage, deposits. Construction cash flow is complicated. We help you see where the money actually is.
Bidding Without Real Numbers
If you don't know what your last jobs actually cost, you're guessing on the next one. Accurate job costing gives you real data to bid from. You stop leaving money on the table or losing work because you bid too high.
Need Financials for Bonding or Loans
Banks and bonding companies want to see clean, accurate books. If yours aren't ready, it slows everything down. We get your financials in shape so you're ready when the opportunity comes.
Why Work With Us
We understand contractors because we've been on that side of the business.
10 Years in Construction
Before focusing on accounting, Helaman worked on the operations side of construction. He knows how jobs run, why costs slip, and what numbers matter most to contractors.
Controller Experience
Four years as an accountant and two years as a controller. High-level financial oversight for businesses with real complexity. Not just transaction entry.

Our Services
Start with what you need. Add more when it makes sense for your business.
Full-Service Bookkeeping
Comprehensive monthly bookkeeping including transaction categorization, bank and credit card reconciliation, and detailed financial reporting.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Cleaning up and bringing current past months or years of bookkeeping that has fallen behind. We work through the backlog systematically, reconcile every account, and deliver a clean set of books ready for tax filing or ongoing maintenance.
Construction Job Costing
Track labor, materials, and subcontractor costs by project. See exactly where you're making money and where you're not.
Payroll Services
You submit hours. We calculate taxes, run direct deposits, and handle all the filings. Your crew gets paid on time and your payroll stays compliant.
Accounts Payable Management
We handle your vendor bills, track payment due dates, and process payments. Your suppliers and subs get paid on time.
Accounts Receivable Management
We handle invoicing, track outstanding balances, and follow up when payments are late. This keeps cash moving and prevents revenue from sitting uncollected.
Fractional CFO Services
Part-time CFO-level support including cash flow forecasting, financial analysis, and strategic planning. The financial guidance you need without the full-time cost.
QuickBooks Setup & Training
QuickBooks configuration and training for your specific business. We set up the system correctly and teach you how to use it so you can run your own books with confidence.
Inventory Accounting
Tracking materials, supplies, and inventory items with proper counts and valuations. Know what you have, where it is, and what it cost.
Sales Tax Preparation
Calculating what you owe, filing returns on time, and keeping the documentation the state expects. We track your taxable sales and handle submissions to the Utah State Tax Commission.
Industries We Serve
Our specialty is construction, but we work with growing businesses across industries.
General Contracting & Construction
Construction
Every job looks busy. Not every job is profitable. We track costs by project, phase, and cost code so you know exactly where your money goes.
You learned a skilled trade. Then you started a business. Nobody told you the paperwork would be the hardest part.
Exterior & Building Envelope
Trades
Material costs can eat your margins when they're not tracked by job. We help roofers, siding contractors, and exterior trades see which projects actually profit.
Interior Trades
Trades
Finish work means every detail shows. The prep time, punch lists, and callbacks that eat your margin need to be tracked by job.
Site Work & Concrete
Trades
Your work is measured by the yard and the ton. Your books should be just as precise.
Outdoor & Property Services
Services
Seasonal swings make cash flow tricky. Job costing shows which services actually make money and which ones are draining the bank.
Real Estate
Real Estate
Project-based bookkeeping for developers, flippers, and property managers who need to see profit by deal, not just by month.
Cleaning Services
Services
Bookkeeping for cleaning businesses that need to track true job profitability after travel time, supplies, and labor costs.
Home Services
Services
Service call businesses with mixed recurring and one-time work where job costing reveals which calls actually make money.
Small & Growing Businesses
General
You started this business to do the work, not wrestle with spreadsheets. We handle the books so you can focus on growth.
