Bookkeeping Built for Painting Contractors
Painting margins are made or lost at the estimate, but only books that compare estimate to actual on every job will tell you whether your estimating is any good. Most painting contractors never close that loop. They know revenue went up and the bank account didn't, and they can't say which jobs, which crews, or which types of work are to blame.

What painting books need to get right
- Estimate-versus-actual on every job: labor hours and materials against what you bid, with the variance visible
- Interior, exterior, commercial, and repaint work reported separately, different seasons, different margins, different risks
- Customer deposits and draws on larger jobs held as liabilities until earned
- Sub crews versus W-2 painters costed side by side, with W-9/1099 paperwork airtight
- Materials per job, so paint and sundries stop hiding in a monthly credit card blur
- Seasonal cash planning, exterior season has to fund the winter, and the books should say by how much
Payroll for crews that change with the season
Crew sizes swing, piece-rate and hourly coexist, and subs fill the gaps. We run compliant payroll through the swings and keep every labor dollar attached to the job it painted. Payroll Administration for Small Businesses
Taxes, handled by the same firm
We prepare business and owner tax returns exclusively for our bookkeeping clients, which means your return is built on painting books we closed ourselves, twelve months in a row. Quarterly estimates included, April surprises not. Business Tax Preparation Services
What it costs
A flat monthly fee, quoted in writing after a free discovery call and a look at your QuickBooks file. No hourly billing, no long-term commitment, month to month. If your books are behind, we'll quote a fixed-fee cleanup first. Cleanup & Catch-Up Bookkeeping Services
