01
Job-costing setup
We organize income and costs by project, cost code, phase, subcontractor, and material category so owners can see margin by job.
Service
Construction Bookkeeping Services
Remote bookkeeping for contractors that need job costing, work-in-progress reporting, retainage tracking, clean subcontractor payments, and cash visibility by project.
Contractor Finance
Know which jobs are actually profitable
Construction bookkeeping needs more structure than a standard monthly profit and loss statement. Labor, materials, subcontractors, equipment, retainage, change orders, and progress billing all need to connect back to the job.
Remote Financial Services helps contractors keep the ledger clean and turn job activity into reporting that owners can use before cash or margin problems become expensive.
02
WIP and retainage reporting
We track percent complete, billing status, retainage receivable, overbilling, underbilling, and upcoming cash needs.
03
Subcontractor and vendor controls
We help keep invoices, lien releases, draws, approvals, and payment timing visible before cash gets tight.
04
Monthly close for contractors
We reconcile bank, credit card, loan, payroll, and project records into reports that support bids, lenders, taxes, and owner decisions.
Fit
When contractor bookkeeping needs specialist support
The service is built for contractors, builders, remodelers, specialty trades, and project-based companies where ordinary bookkeeping hides project-level margin.
You cannot see profit by project until the job is over.
Change orders, retainage, or progress billing are difficult to track.
Subcontractor invoices and material purchases are not tied cleanly to jobs.
The business is growing but cash still feels unpredictable.
Your bookkeeping reports do not match what project managers see in the field.
You need better records for lenders, bonding, taxes, or investor reporting.
Proof
Construction accounting work with real project pressure
In a construction engagement, RFS helped manage contractor and subcontractor invoice workflows, bank loan draws, payments, and a later cost-overrun audit. The work produced a clearer view of job costs and where overruns were coming from.
