Accounting for Construction Companies

With hard work, you can make a fortune in construction—but with a simple mistake, you can lose it all. Construction project costs are notoriously hard to project, and errors have both legal and financial consequences. With nearly two decades of experience accounting for construction, we can help your company build structures and practices that will stand the test of time. We understand every regulatory and accounting consideration, so you’ll never be caught off guard.

Construction Accounting & Taxes: It's What We Do

Your profits come from the projects you complete—so why would you take time away from building client relationships to deal with the books? By hiring the experts in accounting for construction, let us take tasks like vendor payment, invoicing, and progress billing off your plate.

Structure Your Business for Tax Efficiency

Tax law is always changing, and it’s essential to stay up-to-date on the latest rules to avoid overpaying. Our experts know every detail of the tax laws that apply to construction and work hard to make sure your business entity is structured in the most efficient way. We also know what mistakes to watch out for and go to great lengths to protect you from costly mistakes.

Understand Your Spending

One of the reasons construction accounting requires specialized knowledge is the length of projects. When you’re working on a contract that lasts months or even years, keeping track of every outflow can pose a real challenge. Basta and Company carefully follows every dollar spent on labor, materials, tools, and more. Our accounting for construction experience gives us the expertise necessary to ensure that all direct and indirect costs are accounted for.

Budget for Project Success

Anyone who has spent time in the construction industry knows that incorrectly budgeting for a job can seriously impact your profitability and reputation with customers. We take everything into account when job costing, from personnel to equipment, to provide the analysis you need to start a project on the right foot. And we provide the budgeting and projection expertise you need to set your company on the path to long-term success.
