Bookkeeping for Kearns Small Businesses

Bookkeeping and job costing for Kearns contractors and small businesses. Flat monthly rates from a firm that understands construction and trades.

Bookkeeping for Kearns

Kearns has a lot of people running their own businesses. Contractors, tradespeople, service companies. Folks who learned a skill and decided to work for themselves. The work is going well, but the books are another story. That’s where we come in. We’re a bookkeeper in American Fork that serves small businesses across the Wasatch Front, including Kearns and the surrounding west Salt Lake County area.

Most of our clients are contractors and trades. Our founder spent years in the construction industry before moving into accounting, so we understand the work you do and why accurate job-level financials matter. We handle monthly bookkeeping, payroll, catch-up work, and the kind of job costing that shows you which projects are actually making money.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get financial statements that reflect reality instead of a bank balance and a shoebox of receipts.

Job Costing

Construction job costing that tracks costs by project, phase, and cost code. Know which jobs made money and which ones ate into your margins before you bid the next one.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Books behind by months or years? We clean up the backlog and get you current. Most Kearns business owners we work with started exactly there.

Payroll

We process paychecks, handle tax deposits, file quarterly reports, and issue W-2s at year end. Your crew gets paid on time and you stop worrying about payroll deadlines.

Kearns Businesses We Work With

Kearns is a working community. Lots of people here make a living with their hands and their trucks. The neighborhood has contractors who started with one van and now run crews. Service businesses that cover the west side of the valley. Small operations that outgrew the owner handling everything and need someone else keeping track of the money.

We work with businesses doing anywhere from $50K to a few million in revenue. Big enough that the books matter, not so big that you need a full-time accountant on staff.

Contractors and Trades

General contractors, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, concrete, roofing. Kearns has plenty of tradespeople running their own outfits. We track job costs, manage cash flow, and keep books that support bonding and bank relationships.

Home Services

Lawn care, pest control, handyman services, garage door repair. Businesses that serve the neighborhoods in Kearns and across the valley. We keep the books straight so you can focus on the routes and the customers.

Cleaning Services

Residential cleaning, commercial janitorial, post-construction cleanup. We track labor costs, supplies, and job profitability so you know which accounts are worth keeping and which ones need repricing.

Small Businesses

Not every business fits a neat category. If you’re running something in Kearns and the books have gotten away from you, we can help. We work with owners across industries who need reliable bookkeeping without the overhead of a bigger firm.
