Industries We Serve

Most accounting firms treat every business the same. We don’t. Our firm specializes in the industries we know from the inside — because we’ve run businesses in them. When your accountant understands job costing, seasonal cash flow, and what a change order does to your margins, you get advice that actually fits your business.

General Contractors & Construction

Construction accounting isn’t regular accounting with a hard hat on. We work with general contractors, remodelers, and builders who need real job costing — not just a P&L at year-end.

Our firm tracks profitability by project, manages subcontractor compliance and 1099s, handles equipment depreciation, and keeps your books clean enough to bond, borrow, or bid with confidence. We know this business because we’ve run one.

How we help contractors:

  • Job-by-job profitability tracking and work-in-progress reporting
  • Subcontractor onboarding, compliance, and 1099-NEC filing
  • Equipment purchase vs. lease analysis and depreciation planning
  • Cash flow forecasting for project-based revenue cycles
  • Year-end financials your bank and bonding company will accept

Plumbers & Plumbing Contractors

Plumbing businesses live on service calls, installs, and emergency work — revenue that swings week to week. Our firm helps plumbing contractors tame that variability with clean books, accurate job costing on installs vs. service work, and tax planning that accounts for vehicle fleets, tools, and inventory. Whether you’re a one-truck shop or running multiple crews, we keep the financial side handled so you can focus on the work.

  • Separate tracking of service, install, and contract revenue
  • Vehicle, tool, and equipment depreciation planning
  • Inventory management for parts and fixtures
  • Technician payroll, commissions, and prevailing-wage compliance

Electricians & Electrical Contractors

Electrical contractors juggle residential service calls, commercial projects, and everything in between — each with different margins and billing cycles. Our firm gives you clear visibility into which work actually makes money, handles the licensing and permit-related expense tracking, and manages payroll for apprentices through journeymen. We also handle the tax side of material-heavy jobs where your cost of goods can make or break the year.

  • Project profitability across residential, commercial, and service work
  • Material cost tracking and inventory controls
  • Multi-tier payroll: apprentices, journeymen, and project managers
  • License, permit, and continuing-education expense management

HVAC Contractors

HVAC is one of the most seasonal trades there is — summer and winter carry the year, shoulder seasons test your cash reserves. Our firm helps HVAC contractors plan for that cycle instead of reacting to it. We track maintenance-agreement recurring revenue separately from install projects, manage the tax implications of equipment inventory, and build cash flow forecasts that keep you steady in April and October — not just July and January.

  • Separate tracking of install, service, and maintenance-agreement revenue
  • Seasonal cash flow forecasting and reserve planning
  • Equipment and refrigerant inventory accounting
  • Service-vehicle fleet depreciation and mileage programs
