Books that close monthly and stand up to a lender.

Monthly closes reconciled to the bank, transactions coded by people who know what a trades business actually buys, and financial statements a lender or bonding company will accept — delivered by certified QuickBooks ProAdvisors.

Reconciled Accounts

Every bank, credit card, and loan account tied to its statement. Reconciliations that don’t tie don’t ship — that’s the firm standard, not a goal.

4112

Clean Categorization

Materials separated from subcontractors, equipment from supplies, owner draws from expenses — the distinctions that decide both your tax bill and what your margins actually are.

4113

Financial Statements

Profit & loss and balance sheet, monthly, in plain English — formatted the way a lender or bonding agent expects to read them.

4114

Clean-Ups & Catch-Ups

Months or years behind, miscoded, or held together by memory: we rebuild it, reconcile it, and keep it closed monthly so it never gets away from you again.

Balance-Sheet First

Prove every balance, and the P&L proves itself. It’s the first page a lender reads — and the first one we clean: every account reconciled, every balance supported, nothing carried because nobody wanted to look.

Bookkeeping, answered.

What access do you need to do my books?

Read-only bank and credit card feeds or monthly statements, your accounting file, and a way to ask you about the occasional mystery transaction. Access is scoped to the minimum the work requires — we don’t need your banking login when a view-only feed will do.

How is CPA-firm bookkeeping different from a bookkeeping service?

The books are built by the same firm that will file the tax return — so categorization decisions are made with the tax treatment in mind, year-end adjustments don’t require a second round of clean-up, and there’s no gap between what the bookkeeper coded and what the preparer assumed.

Do you work with QuickBooks Desktop, or only Online?

Both, as certified ProAdvisors — and we won’t push you to switch. Desktop still fits many contractors better than Online. If you do want off QuickBooks entirely, we handle migrations to Xero, Wave, Manager, and Beancount.
