As a contractor in New York City, you juggle multiple jobs, subcontractors, material costs, and irregular cash flow. The last thing you need is disorganized finances holding you back.
At Sunday Bookkeeping, we provide trustworthy, personalized bookkeeping and accounting services designed specifically for contractors and other service-based professionals like real estate agents, salon owners, barbers, insurance agents, and healthcare clinics.
Whether you're a general contractor, electrician, plumber, or home service pro, accurate bookkeeping is essential for profitability, compliance, and growth.
Why Contractors Need Specialized Bookkeeping
Contractor finances differ from typical small businesses:
Job costing and project tracking — Know exactly how profitable each job is.
Managing subcontractors and 1099s — Stay compliant and avoid penalties.
Irregular income and cash flow — Handle retainers, progress payments, and seasonal work.
Equipment and mileage deductions — Maximize tax savings with proper tracking.
Sales tax and prevailing wage compliance — Navigate NYC and New York State requirements.
Poor bookkeeping leads to missed deductions, cash flow surprises, and stressful tax seasons. Our team ensures your books are clean, accurate, and insightful month after month.
