Bookkeeping for Chesterfield Contractors and Trades

Bookkeeping and job costing for contractors and small businesses in Chesterfield. Accurate records that show which jobs actually make money.

Bookkeeping for Chesterfield Businesses

We provide bookkeeping services for contractors, tradespeople, and small businesses in Chesterfield and throughout West Valley City. Monthly bookkeeping, job costing, payroll, and catch-up work for books that have fallen behind. As a small business bookkeeper in American Fork, we understand what it takes to run a business in this part of the valley.

West Valley has a lot of people who work with their hands. HVAC techs, electricians, plumbers, general contractors, landscapers. These businesses often get too busy doing the work to keep up with the books. That’s where we come in.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get accurate financials without spending your nights and weekends on QuickBooks.

Job Costing

Contractors need to know which jobs make money. We track costs by project so you can see actual margins, not guesses. Bid better on the next one because you know what the last one really cost.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Books a few months behind? A few years? We clean up the backlog and get you current. Most of our general contractor clients started exactly there.

Payroll

Paychecks processed, taxes deposited, quarterly reports filed. Your crew gets paid correctly and on time. You stop tracking payroll deadlines yourself.

Chesterfield Businesses We Work With

The businesses here are often owner-operated. Someone who started out working for someone else, learned the trade, and decided to go out on their own. Now they’re running crews, bidding jobs, and trying to figure out the financial side as they go.

We work with businesses doing anywhere from $50K to a few million in revenue. Big enough to need real bookkeeping, not big enough to justify hiring someone full-time. Our founder spent years in construction before moving into accounting, so we understand how the industry actually works.

Contractors and Trades

HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, general contractors. Construction job costing that shows you profit by project. Books that support bonding applications and bank relationships when you need them.

Landscaping and Outdoor Services

Lawn care, irrigation, fencing, tree service. Seasonal businesses that need to track profitability across the busy months and manage cash flow through the slow ones.

Home Services

Pest control, cleaning, handyman work, garage door services. Recurring revenue mixed with one-time jobs. We keep the books organized so you know where the money is coming from.

Small and Growing Businesses

Not every business in Chesterfield swings a hammer. If you’ve outgrown doing your own books but aren’t ready for a full-time hire, we fill that gap. Clean records, accurate reports, and someone who actually answers when you call.

Common Questions

Do you work with businesses in Chesterfield and West Valley City?

Yes. We're based in American Fork, about 25 minutes south. Most of our work happens remotely, so location doesn't limit what we can do. We serve businesses throughout the Salt Lake Valley.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting at $199 per month. Your exact rate depends on transaction volume and whether you need job costing. We'll give you a number after a short conversation about your business.

How does job costing work for contractors?

We track costs by project so you can see profit margins on each job. Labor, materials, subcontractors, equipment. You'll know which jobs made money and which ones didn't before you bid the next one.

My books are behind. Can you help?

That's how most contractors find us. We do catch-up work to get you current, then move into monthly service. The longer they've been behind, the more work it takes, but we've cleaned up years of backlog before.

Do you handle payroll?

Yes. Paychecks, tax deposits, quarterly filings, W-2s. We handle Utah state requirements and get your crew paid on time every pay period.
