Generic bookkeeping services fail construction contractors because they don't understand job costing, over-under billing analysis, equipment allocation, or the complexity of tracking costs across multiple simultaneous projects. You end up with basic profit-and-loss statements that show your overall business profitability but provide zero insight into which specific jobs made money, which ones lost money, and why. Whyte CPA PC serves Gilbert contractors with construction-specific bookkeeping services designed to give you project-level visibility into profitability.
Whyte CPA PC provides specialized construction bookkeeping services for Gilbert contractors requiring accurate job costing, work-in-progress tracking, equipment depreciation schedules, and project-level financial reporting. Our construction accounting expertise helps contractors understand true project profitability, maintain bonding capacity, and make data-driven decisions about bidding and operations.
We implement industry-standard construction charts of accounts with proper job costing frameworks including separate tracking for direct labor by trade, materials by project phase, equipment costs and depreciation, subcontractor expenses, and properly allocated overhead.
We maintain complete equipment records including purchase costs and dates, depreciation schedules, useful life tracking, maintenance and repair costs, and calculate job-specific equipment charges based on usage.
We coordinate with your construction payroll provider to automatically allocate labor costs to correct jobs, track burden rates and worker's compensation by trade classification, calculate true fully-loaded labor costs, and ensure payroll data feeds directly into project-level reporting.

You can't manage profitability you can't measure. We implement comprehensive job costing systems tracking labor, materials, subcontractor costs, equipment usage, and overhead allocation to specific projects. Every expense gets coded to the correct job, phase, and cost code, giving you real-time visibility into each project's actual costs versus budget. You spot cost overruns while there's still time to take corrective action, identify your most profitable project types, and bid future work based on actual historical costs rather than hopeful guesses.
Bonding companies and banks require detailed WIP schedules showing costs-to-date, billings-to-date, over/under billing positions, and estimated costs to complete on every active project. We prepare monthly WIP schedules meeting surety and lender requirements, calculate percentage-of-completion accurately, identify over-billing issues before they become problems, and maintain the documentation your bonding agent needs to increase your capacity. Your bonding remains protected while you maintain the banking relationships essential for equipment financing and growth.
