ACCOUNTING FOR BUILDERS & GENERAL CONTRACTORS
BOOKKEEPING & TAXES FOR BUILDERS & GENERAL CONTRACTORS.
Job-costed, tax-ready books for builders and general contractors, from a team that knows you carry every other trade’s risk on your own balance sheet.
- FLAT MONTHLY FEE
- JOB-LEVEL PROFIT
- BOOKS CLOSED MONTHLY
BUILT FOR THE TRADE
YOU CARRY EVERY OTHER TRADE’S RISK.
-
RETAINAGE
Money earned and not yet released is tracked as the receivable it is, so you know what is owed rather than discovering it at closeout.
-
PROGRESS BILLING AND DRAWS
Billing follows completion, and the books keep draws, costs and completion reconciled to each other.
-
SUBCONTRACTOR COSTS
Every sub’s cost posts to the job and the phase, so a bleeding trade shows up before the job closes rather than after.
-
WORK IN PROGRESS
Over- and under-billing are tracked, so the numbers reflect work completed instead of the timing of the last cheque.
WHAT WE HANDLE
FOUR THINGS, DONE RIGHT.
Bookkeeping and tax preparation are the base. Job costing and WIP tracking are added when you need them.
-
JOB COSTING
Every cost lands on the job that earned it, so you know which jobs made money.
-
MONTHLY BOOKKEEPING
Books closed monthly, reconciled, and ready for whoever asks.
-
WIP TRACKING
Work in progress tracked so revenue matches the work actually completed.
-
TAX PREPARATION
Business and owner returns prepared from books we already know are right.
WHY IT MATTERS
RUN JOBS ON NUMBERS THAT HOLD UP.
-
KNOW WHERE YOU STAND MID-JOB
Costs against completion mean you know a job’s real position before it finishes.
-
DEFEND YOUR BILLING
Documented job costs make a draw request something you can back up line by line.
-
NO TAX-SEASON SURPRISES
Clean books all year mean the return is a formality, not a fire drill.
QUESTIONS BEFORE WE START
STRAIGHT ANSWERS. NO RUNAROUND.
Everything you should know before trusting us with your books and taxes.
STILL HAVE A QUESTION?
TALK TO STREAM-
Yes, as a receivable rather than as revenue you have already collected, so what is being held back is visible the whole way through the job.
-
Yes. It is the reason most builders come to us — over- and under-billing is where a builder’s real position hides.
-
They post to the job and phase they belong to, so you can see which trade on which job is eating the margin.
-
Yes. Catch-up work is something we do regularly. We will tell you what it takes to get current before you commit to anything.
-
No. We do not provide payroll services. We do make sure crew and sub costs land on the job that incurred them, so labour shows up where it actually went.
