Bookkeeping & financial operations for contractors & home services
You handle the jobs. We handle the numbers.
Crews, materials, vehicles, deposits and seasonal swings make contractor finances different from most businesses. Sumday builds books around your jobs so you can see which work is profitable and plan cash through the busy and quiet months.
- Job costing
- Crew payroll
- Seasonal cash flow
Why home services business finances are different
Generic bookkeeping misses the details.
These are the areas where contractors & home services most often need more than a standard setup.
Every job has its own margin
Materials, labor and subcontractors need to be tied to jobs to see what each one actually earned.
Deposits aren’t revenue yet
Customer deposits and progress billing need careful tracking until the work is done.
Vehicles and equipment add up
Fuel, maintenance, loans and equipment purchases are major costs that deserve clear tracking.
Seasons swing cash
Busy seasons fund quiet ones. Forecasting helps you hire, buy and borrow at the right time.
