Our Services
The Financial Operating System for Contractors Scaling to $10M
You were searching for a bookkeeper.
What you actually need is a financial system.
Construction companies don’t fail because they can’t build.
They fail because the numbers behind the builds are scattered across Buildertrend, Procore, spreadsheets, and someone’s truck glovebox.
We fix that
Salisbury Bookkeeping builds financial systems that show you, in real time, which jobs make money, which bleed cash, and exactly where profit is leaking.
Not reports. Not busywork.
A system that pays for itself—most clients see 2–3× ROI in their first year.
What We Do
These aren’t “services.”
They’re the systems that stop your money from disappearing.
The Financial System Install™ (Your Architecture)
Buildertrend and QuickBooks don’t talk. We build the bridge.
Contractors scale faster when the field and the financials speak the same language. Our construction financial system is built to unify your operations by ensuring clean, automated Buildertrend–QuickBooks integration (or Procore accounting setup if you use Procore).
We install the three-part financial architecture every $500K–$10M contractor needs:
The GL — fully tax-compliant, built on the NAHB chart of accounts The Job Cost Report — real-time job costing for contractors, showing actual vs estimated The 13-Week Cash Flow Forecast — stay ahead of slow pays, retainage, and seasonality
Deliverable:
A unified financial operating system where field data flows directly into QuickBooks—no re-entry, no blind spots, no guessing. Just accuracy, clarity, and control.
WIP Reporting & ASC 606 Compliance
You can’t get bonded with a messy WIP.
Production isn’t the problem—reporting is. We build WIP reporting for contractors that banks, lenders, and bonding companies actually trust. Our ASC 606–aligned process gives you financials that strengthen your credibility and your ability to secure work.
What we deliver:
ASC 606 construction accounting with percentage-of-completion revenue recognition Clear over/under billing analysis Full job-level contractor profitability reporting Bonding and bank-ready documentation
Deliverable:
Clean, accurate, ASC 606–compliant WIP reports delivered in as little as 3 weeks.
The No-More-Leaks Change Order System
The PM approved it. The crew built it. The client loves it.
But it never got billed.
The biggest profit leak in construction isn’t labor or materials—it’s unbilled change orders. We install a change order tracking system that eliminates missing COs and stops revenue leakage before it drains margins.
What’s included:
Weekly change order flags Field → finance sync Tracking hours, materials, and approvals No more disappearing COs
Deliverable:
A streamlined construction billing workflow that captures every billable hour, board, and screw—automatically.
Custom Dashboards (Your Control Panel)
Stop asking your bookkeeper how the Miller job is doing.
Open your dashboard.
We build construction KPI dashboards that show your entire financial picture in real time. No more digging for reports, waiting on staff, or flying blind.
Your dashboard includes:
Job profitability by phase (updated daily) Cash runway 13 weeks out Unbilled work from your PM tools Budget vs actual Real-time WIP status
Deliverable:
One login. Total visibility. A contractor profitability dashboard powered by real-time job costing and Buildertrend reporting integration.
