Bookkeeping & Advisory for Construction & Trades

An IT company was struggling with inconsistent cash flow despite having a healthy business. The problem wasn't overspending—it was slow-paying clients and an aging accounts receivable balance.

BaneBerry developed a streamlined collections process, cleaned up outstanding receivables, and implemented systems to keep invoices on track moving forward. The result was healthier cash flow, greater financial stability, and more working capital to invest back into the business instead of waiting on unpaid invoices.

A growing construction company came to Baneberry relying on subcontractors for work that should have been classified as employees—a common issue in the trades that can lead to significant tax and compliance risks.

We implemented a proper payroll system, set up payroll tax reporting, and carefully calculated new pay rates to ensure the transition had minimal impact on cash flow. Today, the company operates with compliant payroll processes, organized financial systems, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing their business is built on a solid foundation.

Like many trades professionals, this excavation company owner knew the jobsite inside and out—but bookkeeping and back-office operations weren’t where he wanted to spend his time.

BaneBerry took over payroll, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and implemented job costing so he could accurately track profitability on every project. With organized books and clear financial insights, he can focus on running jobs, growing his business, and doing the work he loves.

When a concrete contractor’s previous bookkeeper moved on, they partnered with BaneBerry Bookkeeping to keep things running smoothly. While the books appeared to be in good shape, a closer review uncovered outdated accounts receivable and a costly reporting error: material vendors had been incorrectly classified as subcontractors, inflating the company’s insurance premiums year after year.

After cleaning up the books and correcting the vendor classifications, baneBerry helped the company save approximately $32,000 in insurance premiums in the first year alone. Today, they have organized, accurate financials—and the confidence that their books are working for their business, not against it.
