Running a home services business—whether it’s plumbing, HVAC, electrical, cleaning, kitchen remodeling, pool maintenance, or even dog grooming—comes with a unique set of financial challenges. Managing the fluctuating costs of materials, tracking labor, and ensuring accurate invoicing can quickly become overwhelming without the right systems in place.
That’s where Ledge Accounting comes in. We specialize in tailored bookkeeping solutions for home services businesses, helping you track your financials more effectively, stay organized, and ensure compliance with tax regulations. We connect popular billing software such as Serviceminder, Jobber, Housecall Pro, and ServiceTitan directly to QuickBooks Online (QBO) and sync your bank data to provide monthly financial reports that give you a clear view of your cash flow.
One of the biggest financial challenges for home services businesses is managing the fluctuating costs of materials and labor. With each job requiring different supplies, tools, and manpower, failing to track these costs accurately can lead to reduced profitability and cash flow problems.
At Ledge Accounting, we help you categorize and document every job-related cost, from tools and materials to labor and transportation. By integrating your billing software with QuickBooks Online, we ensure that all your expenses are properly categorized, giving you a clear picture of your profitability. This allows you to identify areas for improvement and opportunities to increase your bottom line.
Home services businesses often rely on a mix of full-time, part-time, and freelance workers, which can make payroll tracking complex. While Ledge Accounting does not process payroll directly, we provide detailed payroll breakdowns in your monthly financial reports to give you a clear understanding of labor costs across your business.
For example, we break down payroll by department or role, so you can easily see how much you are spending on technicians, office staff, and administrative workers. Your payroll breakdown might look something like this:
This clarity in payroll expenses allows you to manage staffing costs more effectively and make informed decisions about resource allocation. For the actual payroll processing, we recommend using Gusto, a tool that handles payroll taxes, employee benefits, and integrates seamlessly with QBO for accurate financial tracking.
Invoicing is a crucial part of maintaining a steady cash flow for home services businesses. With multiple projects and clients, it's easy for invoices to fall through the cracks, leading to delayed payments and cash flow challenges. Having a streamlined invoicing system ensures that you get paid on time, which helps keep your operations running smoothly.
At Ledge Accounting, we set up efficient invoicing systems by integrating with tools like Jobber and Housecall Pro, which automate invoicing, reduce errors, and ensure payments are tracked properly. This allows you to focus on completing jobs while our system takes care of invoicing, ensuring that your cash flow remains consistent and reliable.
Home services businesses qualify for a wide range of tax deductions, including expenses for vehicles, tools, materials, and even home office space. However, staying compliant with ever-changing tax regulations while tracking deductions can be challenging. Missing deductions or filing incorrectly can lead to costly penalties or missed savings.
Ledge Accounting provides year-round tax planning services that ensure you stay compliant while maximizing your deductions. By keeping track of deductible expenses throughout the year, such as vehicle expenses, tools, and materials, we help you minimize your tax liability and avoid the last-minute stress of tax preparation.
Based on our experience working with a range of home service clients, we’ve identified a few key pieces of advice to help you stay financially organized:
Managing the financial side of a home services business requires a careful balance of tracking materials, labor, and cash flow while staying compliant with tax regulations. With the right bookkeeping solutions, you can stay organized, maintain healthy cash flow, and ensure long-term growth.
At Ledge Accounting, we specialize in helping home services businesses streamline their bookkeeping and financial management. By integrating your billing systems with QuickBooks Online and providing clear financial reports each month, we give you the tools to make better financial decisions.
