Bookkeeping for Magna Contractors & Small Businesses

Construction bookkeeping and job costing for Magna contractors and tradespeople. Clean books from a firm that knows the trades.

Bookkeeping for Magna Businesses

Magna has always been a working community. The copper mine and industrial jobs brought people here, and that blue-collar identity remains even as the west valley grows. A lot of contractors and tradespeople call Magna home, running businesses that serve Salt Lake County and beyond. Those businesses need bookkeeping that actually fits how construction works.

We provide construction bookkeeping from American Fork for contractors throughout the Wasatch Front. Our focus is job costing and financial tracking that shows you profit by project, not just one number at the end of the month. We work remotely with all our clients, which keeps costs reasonable and makes the 30-minute distance irrelevant.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. You get financial statements that reflect what actually happened in your business so you can make decisions based on real numbers.

Construction Job Costing

Tracking costs by job, phase, and cost code so you know which projects make money and which ones don’t. This is how contractors figure out what to bid on and what to walk away from.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

If your books are months or years behind, we clean them up. Most contractors we work with started exactly there. We get you current, then keep you current going forward.

Payroll Services

Full payroll processing including tax deposits, quarterly filings, and W-2s. Your employees and subs get paid correctly and on time. You stop thinking about payroll deadlines.

Magna Industries We Serve

The west side of the valley is growing fast. New homes going up in Herriman and South Jordan. Commercial projects along the 201 corridor. Infrastructure work that comes with population growth. Magna contractors are working these jobs, and they need books that keep pace with the work they’re doing.

We work with contractors and small businesses doing anywhere from a few hundred thousand to a few million in annual revenue. Job costing is our specialty, but we serve any business that needs accurate financials without the cost of hiring someone full-time.

General Contractors

Residential and commercial builders working across the valley. We handle the financial tracking that shows profit by project and keeps your books ready for bonding and bank relationships.

Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing

HVAC, plumbing, and electrical contractors running service calls and project work. We track labor and materials by job so you know what you’re actually making on each type of work.

Site Work & Concrete

Excavation, foundation, and concrete contractors. Equipment-heavy operations where knowing your true costs per job determines whether you’re bidding profitably or working for free.

Service Businesses

Cleaning companies, lawn care, pest control, and other service businesses operating out of Magna. Straightforward bookkeeping that keeps your financials organized without overcomplicating things.

Common Questions

Do you work with businesses in Magna?

Yes. We're based in American Fork, about 30 minutes south. Everything happens remotely so the distance doesn't affect the service. Most of our clients prefer it that way since there's nothing to schedule around.

What does bookkeeping cost for a Magna contractor?

Monthly bookkeeping starts at $199. Your actual price depends on transaction volume and whether you need job costing. We quote a flat monthly rate after looking at your situation.

Do you understand construction accounting?

Yes. Our founder spent years working in construction before moving into accounting. We understand job costing, progress billing, and why knowing your numbers by project matters more than a generic P&L.

My books are behind. Can you help?

That's how most contractors come to us. We do catch-up work to get you current, then move to monthly service so you don't fall behind again.

Do you handle payroll?

Yes. Payroll processing, tax deposits, quarterly filings, and year-end W-2s. Your crew gets paid on time and you stop worrying about compliance deadlines.
