OUR STORY### What Makes Us Unique
**Specialized Focus on Contractors**
All our clients are specialty trade contractors, which means your financial systems—like chart of accounts, job costing, WIP schedules, and financial statements—are specifically tailored to the way construction businesses operate, rather than relying on a generic template. You won’t need to explain concepts like retainage.
**Genuine Expertise and Direct Communication**
Unlike other firms that put you through multiple layers before reaching an expert, we connect you directly with someone who specializes in construction accounting. There’s no unnecessary delay—just the answers you need.
**Simplifying Your Workload**
You launched your business to build, not to spend sleepless nights reconciling bank statements. We handle all your accounting needs—bookkeeping, payroll, job costing, WIP, and tax preparation—allowing you to concentrate on securing projects and managing your teams.

### Frequently Asked Questions
**Do you exclusively work with contractors?**
Absolutely. Our clientele consists solely of specialty trade contractors, including HVAC, electrical, plumbing, mechanical, roofing, concrete, drywall, and fire suppression experts. This isn’t just a marketing ploy; it’s the foundation of our firm. Your financial documentation is structured to align with how construction businesses function. You will never have to explain retainage or the workings of a pay application.
**How much does it cost to work with Contractor's Ledger?**
Our pricing is based on your business's size and complexity, considering factors like revenue, job count, employee numbers, and the services required. We offer a clear, flat monthly fee upfront, ensuring no unexpected charges. We don’t use hourly billing or have hidden fees, and there are no long-term contracts. To get an estimate, schedule a complimentary financial review, and we’ll prepare a straightforward proposal for you.
**How long does the onboarding process take?**
Typically, most contractors are fully integrated in two to four weeks. We manage the migration process, software setup, and any necessary cleanup to ensure your financials are up to date. Our approach minimizes the effort required from you, allowing you to continue your business operations while we get everything organized.
**What if my financial records are disorganized?**
This is a common situation, and there’s no need to feel ashamed. Many contractors come to us with records that are months or even years out of date. We will thoroughly review your books, get them updated, and establish a system to keep them in order moving forward. We focus on delivering results without judgment.
**Which accounting software do you utilize?**
We mainly work with QuickBooks Online and are certified as Intuit ProAdvisors. If you’re already using a platform that suits your business needs, we can adapt to work with that software. Our primary goal is to ensure you have clear visibility at the job level while avoiding unnecessary complications.
