Common Financial Headaches in Construction & Home Services
If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone. Running jobs, managing crews, and keeping clients happy leaves little time for spreadsheets and receipts.
Books are always behind.
You're too busy running jobs to keep up with QuickBooks.
No clear view of profitability.
You know cash is coming in—but not what's actually left after materials, subs, and payroll.
Mixing business and personal.
Business expenses end up on personal cards and everything is tangled at tax time.

You're not 100% sure subcontractors, employees, and filings are handled correctly.

Your prior accountant only showed up at filing time, not throughout the year.
Multi-jurisdiction headaches.
You're working in Virginia, DC, and sometimes Maryland, and you're not sure how that impacts taxes.

FAQ: Construction, Trades & Home Services
Do I have to be local to work with you?
No. We're based in Manassas, VA and serve construction, trades, and home service businesses across Northern Virginia and the DC area. Most of our work is done virtually with secure tools.
Can you help if my books are behind or a mess?
Yes. That's very common. We'll review your situation and, if needed, quote a one-time cleanup project so monthly bookkeeping can start from a solid baseline.
Do you also handle my personal tax return?
Yes. For most owners, we handle both the business return and the owner's personal return so everything is coordinated.
What software do you use?
Most clients use QuickBooks Online. If you're on something else, we'll discuss whether it makes sense to migrate.
Do you require ongoing monthly services, or can you just do the tax return?
We prefer ongoing monthly bookkeeping for construction, trades, and home service clients because accurate books are the foundation of a good tax return. In some cases, we'll consider tax-only work if your books are already in excellent shape.
