Bookkeeping for contractors and trades

Books that keep up with contractors and trades.

On the tools all day, the paperwork waits until the evening — or the weekend, or tax time. We set up a real accounting system for your trades business and run it, so you can quote, invoice and log a receipt from the truck and never fall behind.

Your money, the way it actually moves

Quotes turn into invoices; materials come from a handful of suppliers; subcontractors get paid and need tracking for year-end; and the truck runs up mileage. Knowing whether a job actually made money means all of it tied together — which is what we set up.

What we set up for you

  • 01Quotes and invoices with HST, sent from your phone
  • 02Materials and supplier bills; subcontractor payments with T5018 tracking
  • 03Mileage and job costing, so you know which jobs pay
  • 04HST owing and a clean year-end for your accountant

Questions

01

Can I invoice from a job site?

Yes — “invoice the Hendersons for Friday, $2,400” sends a proper invoice with HST. Quotes work the same way and convert to invoices when the customer says yes.

02

What about subcontractors and T5018s?

Subcontractor payments are recorded and tracked so the T5018 slips at year-end are ready, rather than reconstructed from memory.
