Bookkeeping for Provo Contractors and Small Businesses

Construction bookkeeping and job costing for Provo contractors. Monthly bookkeeping and payroll from a firm that knows the trades.

Bookkeeping for Provo Contractors

Provo keeps growing. New homes going up in the foothills. Commercial projects downtown. Remodels across established neighborhoods. If you’re a contractor working in this market, you’re probably busy. But busy and profitable are different things, and too many contractors don’t know the difference until tax season arrives.

We provide bookkeeping services from American Fork with a focus on contractors and construction businesses. Monthly bookkeeping, job costing, payroll, and the financial tracking that helps you understand which work is worth taking and which jobs are eating your margin.

Construction Job Costing

Job costing tracks every dollar against specific projects. Labor, materials, subs, equipment. When the job closes, you know exactly what you made or lost. No more guessing which projects were profitable.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. Financial statements that show where you stand. The foundation that makes job costing and tax prep actually work.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Behind on your books? Most contractors who find us are. We clean up months or years of backlog, organize the mess, and get you to a clean starting point before moving into regular monthly service.

Payroll Services

Payroll processing, tax deposits, quarterly filings, year-end W-2s. Your crew gets paid correctly and on time. You stop tracking payroll deadlines because we handle them.

Provo Businesses We Work With

Utah County has a lot of contractors. General contractors building custom homes in the benches. Trades crews working subdivision after subdivision. Specialty contractors handling everything from concrete to finish carpentry. They all share the same problem: the financial side of the business gets neglected when the job site demands attention.

We also work with real estate investors, property developers, and other small businesses that have outgrown managing their own books. If your business has enough complexity that QuickBooks feels overwhelming, we’re set up to help.

General Contractors

General contractors and home builders running multiple projects at once. We track costs by job, handle progress billing, and deliver financials that show profitability across your active work.

Trades and Subcontractors

HVAC, electrical, plumbing, roofing, painting, concrete, and every other trade working in Provo. Whether you’re a crew of three or thirty, we handle the books so you can focus on the work.

Real Estate Investors

Fix and flip operators, rental property owners, and developers. We track renovation costs by property, manage the accounting across multiple entities, and keep your numbers organized for lenders and partners.

Growing Small Businesses

Not every client is in construction. We work with service businesses, professional firms, and other small companies in Provo that need reliable monthly bookkeeping without hiring someone full-time.

Common Questions

Do you work with contractors in Provo?

Yes. Contractors and tradespeople are our specialty. We understand construction accounting because our founder spent years working in the industry before focusing on bookkeeping full-time.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting at $199 per month based on transaction volume. Job costing and other services are priced based on complexity. We quote exact pricing after learning about your business.

Why does job costing matter?

It shows you which jobs actually made money after all costs are counted. Most contractors know their revenue but not their true profit by project. Job costing fixes that.

You're in American Fork. Can we meet in person?

Yes. We're about 15 minutes up I-15. Most day-to-day work happens digitally, but we can meet when it makes sense. We're not a remote firm across the country.

What if my books are months behind?

That's a common starting point. We handle catch-up work to get you current, then move into regular monthly service. Most of our clients started with some backlog to clean up.
