Accounting Pricing for Contractors | RL Accounting Services

Accounting That Fits the Work You Actually Do

We do not force every contractor into the same cookie-cutter package. Your monthly investment depends on the complexity of your books, job costing needs, payroll, reporting requirements, and how clean your current setup is.

‍Monthly accounting starts at $1,000/month for lighter-scope clients. Most construction and trades businesses we work with fall between $1,500 and $2,500/month.

More complex engagements involving deeper job costing, WIP reporting, cleanup, sales tax, or controller-level support may range up to $3,500+.

Most clients land at $1,500–$2,500/month

^{What Affects Pricing}

Two contractors can have the same revenue and need completely different levels of support.
Pricing depends on the real workload behind the scenes.

Bookkeeping Complexity

Transaction volume, number of accounts, vendor activity, and whether the books are already clean or need repair.

Job Costing Needs

Whether you need basic coding or deeper visibility into job profitability, labor, and WIP reporting.

Payroll & Sales Tax

Employee count, payroll support, state filings, and other recurring compliance items can change scope fast.

Reporting Depth

Simple monthly statements cost less than custom reporting, cash flow reviews, and controller-level support.

Common Questions

Why is there a one-time onboarding fee?

We clean up your books, fix your job costing, and set up your system correctly - so everything moving forward is accurate.

Do I need this if my books are already clean?

Most clients come to us with books that look clean but aren’t set up for job costing or accurate reporting. We make sure everything is structured correctly from the start.

What industries do you work with?

We work exclusively with construction and trades - including HVAC, plumbing, general contractors, home builders, and restoration.

What software do you use?

We use QuickBooks Online and integrate with tools like ServiceTitan, JobTread, Housecall Pro, and other industry software.

Who is this NOT for?

If you just need basic bookkeeping or want the lowest-cost option, we’re not a fit.
We work with contractors who care about job profitability, cash flow, and actually growing their business.

What kind of results should I expect?

Clear visibility into job profitability, better cash flow control, and confidence in your numbers — so you can make decisions without guessing.
