Book your free 30-minute strategy call to see where your books stand.
Is Messy Bookkeeping Holding Your Business Back?
When your books are behind, you can’t see which jobs make money, what you owe vendors, or what’s coming in next. Decisions get made on guesses, and tax time turns into a scramble. We take bookkeeping off your plate and keep your numbers accurate, so you can see where your business really stands.

Bookkeeping vs. Accounting vs. Tax Preparation
Bookkeeping: records your day-to-day transactions, reconciles your accounts, and keeps your books current. It’s the foundation for everything else.
Accounting: turns those records into financial statements and analysis, so you can see how your business is performing.
Tax preparation: uses your finished books to file accurate business and personal returns.
At KW CPA & Advisory Services, you get bookkeeping, accounting, and tax services from one firm.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a bookkeeper do for a contractor?
A bookkeeper records your transactions, reconciles your bank and credit card accounts, and keeps your books current each month. For contractors, that also means tracking what customers owe you, what you owe vendors, and costs job by job.
Can you clean up my books if they’re behind?
Yes. We offer clean-ups for books that are behind or messy, and we can set up QuickBooks Online so you start fresh with accurate records. After the clean-up, we can keep your books current with monthly bookkeeping.
Do you set up job costing for construction companies?
Yes. For construction clients, we set up job costing and review it regularly, so you can see costs and profit job by job instead of guessing which projects make money.
How much does bookkeeping cost?
It depends on the size of your business, how many transactions you have, and whether your books need a clean-up first. Book a free 30-minute strategy call, and we’ll look at your situation and scope it with you.
