EAGLE MOUNTAIN, Utah – Salisbury Bookkeeping provides specialized construction accounting and fractional controller services for general contractors, home builders, and specialty trades generating $500,000 to $10 million in annual revenue.

CONSTRUCTION-SPECIFIC BOOKKEEPING SERVICES

Our construction bookkeeping services solve the "Graduation Gap" - when contractors outgrow basic bookkeeping but aren't ready for full-time CFO costs. We provide:

- Job costing and project profitability tracking
- WIP (Work-in-Progress) reports for bonding
- Retainage management and draw schedule coordination
- 13-week cash flow forecasting for construction companies
- Change order tracking and billing systems
- QuickBooks Online setup with NAHB Chart of Accounts

TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION EXPERTISE

We eliminate double data entry by integrating QuickBooks with your construction project management software:

- Buildertrend integration for custom home builders
- Procore integration for general contractors
- CoConstruct integration for residential remodelers  
- Knowify integration for commercial contractors and subcontractors

FRACTIONAL CONTROLLER FOR CONSTRUCTION

Unlike generalist bookkeepers who focus on tax compliance, our fractional controller service provides:

- Real-time job cost vs. estimate analysis
- Monthly financial close and construction-specific reporting
- ASC 606 revenue recognition compliance
- Certified payroll for prevailing wage projects
- Percentage of completion accounting

WHY CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES CHOOSE SALISBURY BOOKKEEPING

Construction accounting is fundamentally different from general business bookkeeping. Contractors need three-dimensional financial visibility: General Ledger (company-wide), Job Cost Reports (project-level), and Cash Flow Forecasting (timeline management).

Our NAHB membership ensures compliance with National Association of Home Builders standards - critical for bank financing, bonding capacity, and investor confidence.

COMMON CONSTRUCTION ACCOUNTING PAIN POINTS WE SOLVE

- "How much did we really make on that job?" - Accurate job profitability analysis
- "Why is the bank account empty when P&L shows profit?" - Cash vs. accrual reconciliation
- "Which jobs are bleeding money right now?" - Real-time cost tracking alerts
- "How do I manage retainage and draw schedules?" - Construction-specific cash flow systems
