General accounting firms don't speak WIP, retainage, and percentage-of-completion. Builder Ledger's controller services are built for construction only — job costing, WIP schedules, and cash control, watched monthly by a controller who has spent 10+ years inside contractors' books.
No contract · Month-to-month · Starting at $2,000/mo · Direct access to Brian
A construction company's financials turn on things that don't exist in other industries: work-in-progress schedules, percentage-of-completion revenue, retainage, over and under billings, committed costs, and job-level margins that move every week. A generic outsourced controller — or a bookkeeper stretched past their role — treats your business like a regular P&L, and the job-level truth gets lost.
Builder Ledger is the controller layer built exclusively for that reality. Every report, every alert, and every monthly review is organized around one question: which jobs are making money, which are slipping, and what do we do about it while there's still time?
Estimated profit and margin on every active job, updated monthly — so you bid the next job knowing what the last one actually made.
A reconciled work-in-progress schedule your bank and surety will accept — over/under billing on every job, every month.
A rolling 12-week cash forecast built on AR aging, payroll cycles, draws, and billing timing. No more payroll surprises.
When a job starts tracking below target margin, you hear about it mid-job — while crew, scope, or pricing can still change.
Financial reporting prepared for lender and bonding reviews, so increasing your capacity isn't blocked by messy financials.
45–60 minutes with Brian reviewing every finding. You make decisions backed by numbers, not gut feel.
"Brian called me two months in and said we were going to lose $40K on that job if nothing changed. Adjusted the crew, closed it out fine. I never would've caught it."

"Revenue was up and I was still sweating payroll every two weeks. Turns out we had a billing gap on two jobs. Fixed it week three. Cash flow completely turned around."
General Contractor · Dallas, TX · $14M
"Found out our TI work was averaging 4% margin. Half what we made on ground-up. Stopped chasing that work. Margin went up without doing more volume. Nobody ever showed me that before."
