Are outdated accounting tools holding you back? Without mobile-friendly software, tracking finances on the go becomes a challenge, leaving you disconnected. Delayed invoices and receipts lead to confusion and cash flow disruptions, while managing subcontractor payments feels like a constant struggle—forcing you to return to the office just to cut checks.
Most CPAs can handle basic bookkeeping and taxes—but construction accounting is a whole different game. If your accountant doesn’t understand the complexities of job costing, revenue recognition, and project-based accounting, you could be losing thousands of dollars in missed profits, tax mistakes, and cash flow mismanagement.
Here’s where a generalist CPA may be costing you BIG MONEY:
A regular CPA looks at your business as a whole. Construction accounting tracks each job separately.
If you don’t know which jobs are making or losing money, how can you bid smarter and grow profitably? A construction accountant ensures every project is its own profit center, so you know exactly where your money is going.
💰 What it costs you: Hidden losses on jobs that seem profitable but aren’t.
If your accountant only tracks expenses like materials and payroll, you’re missing the details that matter.
Every job has unique costs Labor, equipment, materials, subs—and if they aren’t tracked properly, you’ll undercut yourself on bids or overspend without realizing it. A construction accountant helps you bid with confidence and protect your margins.
💰 What it costs you: Thousands in underestimated bids, wasted resources, and unexpected overruns.
Most businesses recognize revenue when they make a sale—but construction doesn’t work that way.
If your CPA isn’t applying Percentage of Completion or Completed Contract methods correctly, you could be:
❌ Paying taxes on income you haven’t actually received yet
❌ Reporting revenue incorrectly, leading to IRS penalties and audits
💰 What it costs you: Overpaying taxes now—or getting hit with a massive tax bill later.
Key Difference: Change orders in construction alter project costs and revenue mid-job. Traditional accounting doesn't often handle this level of variability. Why It Matters: Construction accountants know how to track and manage these changes, ensuring they're properly reflected in budgets and financial statements.
Key Difference: Retainage is a percentage of payment withheld by the client until project completion— a concept unique to construction. Why It Matters: A construction accountant tracks retainage separately, ensuring it's accurately accounted for in cash flow and receivables.
Key Difference: Construction businesses have significant investments in heavy equipment, requiring tracking of depreciation, maintenance, and usage costs. Why It Matters: Construction accountants properly allocate equipment costs to jobs, ensuring accurate job profitability analysis.
Key Difference: Construction payroll involves challenges like prevailing wages, union regulations, certified payroll reporting, and varying employee classifications (hourly vs. subcontractors). Why It Matters: A construction accountant navigates these complexities to keep payroll compliant and accurate.
Key Difference: Construction companies must maintain specific financial reports to qualify for bonding and surety. Why It Matters: Construction accountants produce financial statements that meet bonding requirements, helping secure bids and contracts.
Key Difference: Construction projects often have uneven cash flow due to retainage, upfront costs, and staggered payments. Why It Matters: A construction accountant ensures proper cash flow planning to avoid disruptions in operations or project completion.
