Bookkeeping for Contractors and Project-Based Businesses
Bookkeeping for contractors from Ledger & Logic keeps your job costs, your subcontractors, and your billing recorded against the work they belong to, without you having to sort it out once the job is closed. Costs belong to particular jobs, revenue arrives as deposits and progress payments, and a good deal of the paperwork reaches you after the work is finished.

For contractors, landscapers, and other project-based businesses, we also review how materials, subcontractor costs, customer deposits, and progress payments are recorded to identify any areas that need attention.
Industries we serve
