Bookkeeping for West Valley City Contractors

Construction bookkeeping and job costing for West Valley City contractors. Monthly financials and payroll for trades businesses.

Bookkeeping for West Valley Contractors

West Valley City has the industrial activity, new construction, and commercial development that keeps contractors busy. What it also has is a lot of business owners who are better at running jobs than tracking financials. That’s where we come in. We’re a construction bookkeeper in American Fork that serves contractors and trades businesses throughout the Salt Lake Valley, including West Valley City.

We specialize in construction accounting. Monthly bookkeeping, job costing, payroll for crews, and books that are ready for your CPA at year end. The financial tracking you need to know which jobs make money and which ones eat your margin.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transaction categorization, bank reconciliation, financial statements. Your books stay current every month so you can make decisions based on real numbers instead of guesses.

Construction Job Costing

Job costing that tracks labor, materials, and overhead by project. See which jobs are profitable and which ones are dragging down your margins. Bid future work based on actual costs.

Payroll Services

Full payroll processing for your crew. Tax deposits, quarterly filings, W-2s handled. Workers get paid on schedule and you stop spending time on payroll calculations every pay period.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Books that are months or years behind get cleaned up and brought current. Most contractors we work with start this way. We get you caught up, then keep you current going forward.

West Valley City Businesses We Serve

West Valley has a strong trades economy. Residential contractors building in new subdivisions. Commercial contractors working on retail and industrial projects. Specialty trades serving the distribution centers and manufacturing facilities that have been part of this area for decades. These businesses need bookkeeping that understands construction, not generic accounting that treats a contractor like a retail store.

We work with contractors and trades businesses doing $100K to $5M in annual revenue. Businesses that have outgrown doing their own books but aren’t ready for a full-time accountant.

General Contractors

Residential builders, remodelers, and commercial contractors. Job costing that shows profitability by project. Progress billing tracked so you know what’s been invoiced and what’s outstanding.

Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing

HVAC, electrical, and plumbing contractors working throughout the valley. Service calls and project work tracked separately so you understand the profitability of each side of your business.

Concrete and Site Work

Foundation contractors, flatwork, excavation. Equipment costs, materials, and labor allocated by job. Financial tracking that supports bonding applications and equipment financing.

Specialty Trades

Roofing, painting, flooring, drywall, and other specialty contractors. Books organized by project with the detail you need for accurate bidding and the clarity you need to know where your money goes.
