Bookkeeping for Home Service Businesses

Plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, landscapers, cleaners — you're on the road all day servicing customers. Your books shouldn't be another job waiting for you when you get home.

The problem with doing your own books

You started a service business because you're good at what you do — not because you love spreadsheets. But here's what usually happens: transactions pile up, receipts get lost, and you have no real picture of where the money is going.

Meanwhile, you have no idea which services are actually profitable, whether you're charging enough, or how much you can afford to spend on that new van. Clean books answer all of these questions.

What we handle for you

  • Monthly bookkeeping — Every transaction categorized and reconciled. Your books are closed and clean at the end of each month.
  • Income and expense tracking — Service calls, parts, materials, fuel, insurance — everything categorized properly so you see where the money goes.
  • Vehicle and equipment expenses — Mileage, fuel, maintenance, and equipment purchases tracked and categorized.
  • Bank and credit card reconciliation — We match every transaction so nothing falls through the cracks.
  • Financial reports — Plain-English summaries so you know if you're making money or just busy.
  • Organized records — Clean files, easy to find, ready whenever you need them.
