Bookkeeping for Murray Contractors and Small Businesses

Bookkeeping and job costing for Murray contractors and trades. An American Fork firm serving businesses across the Salt Lake Valley.

Bookkeeping for Murray Businesses

TRUEquity Bookkeeping is based in American Fork, about 25 minutes south on I-15. We provide full-service bookkeeping, job costing, and payroll for contractors and small businesses throughout Murray and the Salt Lake Valley. If you need a real estate bookkeeper in American Fork or anywhere along the Wasatch Front, we’re set up to help.

Murray’s central location makes it home to plenty of contractors who work job sites across the valley. We understand the financial complexity that comes with running multiple projects, tracking costs by job, and making sure you actually know which work is profitable. That’s the kind of bookkeeping we specialize in.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transaction categorization, bank reconciliation, and monthly financial statements. Your books closed every month so you can see where the business stands without guessing.

Construction Job Costing

Job costing that tracks labor, materials, and overhead by project. Know which jobs made money and which ones didn’t before you bid the next one.

Payroll Services

Pay runs processed, taxes calculated and deposited, quarterly filings handled. Your crew gets paid correctly and on time without you tracking every deadline.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Books that have fallen behind for months or years. We reconstruct what’s missing, clean up the mess, and deliver organized records ready for tax time or regular monthly service.

Murray Businesses We Work With

Murray has been around longer than the newer Utah County developments, and it shows in the business mix. Established contractors, trades companies, and service businesses that have been operating for years. These aren’t startups figuring things out. They’re businesses with real financial complexity that can’t be managed with a spreadsheet anymore.

We work with businesses doing $50K to a few million in revenue. Companies that have outgrown doing their own books but don’t need a full-time bookkeeper on staff. If you’re running jobs across the valley and losing track of what’s actually profitable, that’s exactly what we help with.

General Contractors

General contractors handling residential and commercial projects throughout the Salt Lake Valley. Job costing, progress billing, and financial tracking that supports bonding and bank relationships.

Trades and MEP

Plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and other specialty trades. We track costs by job so you can see margins on service calls versus larger installations and bid future work based on real numbers.

Real Estate and Property

Fix and flip investors, property managers, and developers. Tracking costs across multiple properties, managing renovation budgets, and keeping records organized for tax time.

Service Businesses

Landscaping, cleaning, home services, and other businesses serving Murray residents and commercial properties. Monthly bookkeeping that keeps pace with seasonal work and variable revenue.

Common Questions

You're in American Fork. Why would a Murray business work with you?

We're about 25 minutes down I-15. Close enough to meet when it matters, but most bookkeeping happens through screens anyway. What matters more is whether your bookkeeper understands construction accounting, and we do.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting at $199 per month based on transaction volume and complexity. We quote exact pricing after learning about your business.

Do you specialize in any industries?

Construction and trades. Helaman spent years working in construction before focusing on accounting full-time. That's why job costing and contractor bookkeeping are our focus.

My books are months behind. Can you help?

Yes. Catch-up bookkeeping is part of what we do. We get your records current and organized, then move into regular monthly service to keep them that way.

Can you handle Utah payroll taxes and requirements?

Yes. Payroll processing, tax deposits, quarterly filings, W-2s, and 1099s. All Utah requirements handled.
