Construction & Trades
Cash flow is the game. We help you track job costs, manage the timing, and stop guessing at your margins.
Cash Flow Is the Game
You can be profitable on paper and still not make payroll on Friday. That’s construction. You buy materials before the job starts. You pay subs before the draw comes in. Retainage sits in someone else’s account for months after the work is done.
Margins matter. But timing matters more. The contractors who survive and grow are the ones who understand when money moves, not just how much.
We help you see it clearly. What’s coming in, what’s going out, and when. No more checking the bank balance and hoping.
You Weren't Trained for This
You learned a trade. You got good at it. You started picking up your own jobs. Then one day you looked up and you were running a business with trucks and crews and a payroll to meet.
Nobody taught you job costing. Nobody explained retainage accounting. Nobody told you how to track change orders or when to walk away from a bid. You figured it out as you went, and some of what you figured out is costing you money.
GCs and Specialty Contractors
GCs and Specialty Contractors
General contractors, electricians, plumbers, HVAC, roofers, painters, concrete. We’ve worked with trades across the board.
Residential and Commercial
Residential and Commercial
Different billing cycles, different retainage rules, different headaches. We know how both sides work.
Know Your Numbers by Job
How much did that kitchen remodel actually cost? Not roughly. Actually. Labor, materials, subs, the callback you had to make, the extra trip to the supply house. All of it.
Most contractors can’t answer that question. Costs get dumped into general categories. Jobs blur together. By the time you figure out if something was profitable, you’ve already bid three more just like it.
Job Costing
Job Costing
Every dollar tied to a job. Labor, materials, subs, equipment. You see what each project actually cost, not what you hoped it would cost.
Work in Progress
Work in Progress
Track jobs while they’re happening. Budget vs actual, updated regularly. Catch problems at 50% complete, not at final invoice.
Bid Smarter
Bid Smarter
Historical job data becomes your edge. Stop guessing. Base your estimates on what things actually cost the last ten times you did them.
Stop Subsidizing Losers
Stop Subsidizing Losers
Some jobs make money. Some lose money. Without job costing, the winners cover for the losers and you never know which is which.
The Paperwork Problem
Lien waivers. Draw schedules. AIA billing. Change orders. Subcontractor invoices. Insurance certificates. The pile never stops and nobody went into construction because they love paperwork.
But the paperwork is how you get paid. Miss a lien waiver and the title company holds your check. Lose track of a change order and you eat the cost. Bill the wrong amount on a draw and you wait another 30 days.
We keep it organized. You know what’s owed, what’s been paid, and what documentation is needed to collect. When someone asks for proof, you have it.
Progress Billing
Progress Billing
Draw schedules, AIA forms, percentage of completion. Billed correctly so you’re not leaving money on the table or waiting extra weeks.
Retainage Tracking
Retainage Tracking
That 10% adds up. We track it by job so you know exactly what’s being held and when you can collect it.
