ACCOUNTING FOR HANDYMAN CONTRACTORS
BOOKKEEPING & TAXES FOR HANDYMAN CONTRACTORS.
Job-costed, tax-ready books for handyman contractors, from a team that knows the work runs on a high volume of small invoices.
- FLAT MONTHLY FEE
- JOB-LEVEL PROFIT
- BOOKS CLOSED MONTHLY
BUILT FOR THE TRADE
A HUNDRED SMALL JOBS IS ITS OWN PROBLEM.
-
VOLUME, NOT SIZE
The costing problem here is transaction count rather than job size, and the books are built to work at that scale.
-
MATERIALS REIMBURSED OR MARKED UP
Whether you pass materials through or mark them up changes your real margin, so the two are tracked apart.
-
SCHEDULING DENSITY IS THE MARGIN
Drive time between jobs is unpaid, so jobs per day matters more than the price of any one of them.
-
RECURRING VERSUS ONE-OFF
Property managers and repeat accounts price differently than a first-time homeowner call, and they are tracked apart.
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
MARGIN LIVES IN THE CALENDAR.
-
SEE JOBS PER DAY
When drive time and job count are visible, you can tell which routes and which days actually earn.
-
PRICE THE SMALL WORK
Real cost per call tells you the minimum that is worth leaving the shop for.
-
NO TAX-SEASON SURPRISES
Clean books all year mean the return is a formality, not a fire drill.
QUESTIONS BEFORE WE START

Everything you should know before trusting us with your books and taxes.
STILL HAVE A QUESTION?
TALK TO STREAM-
Yes, and the volume is the reason to have someone doing it. The costing problem in this trade is transaction count, not job size.
-
That is your call, but the two need to be tracked apart. Blended, you cannot tell what your labor is actually earning.
-
Yes, if job and travel time reach us. Drive time is unpaid, and it is usually where the margin goes.
-
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.
