Monthly bookkeeping for electrical contractors, with HST preparation and filing, payroll available as a $250/month Contractor Bookkeeping add-on or included with Books + Back Office, basic subcontractor and holdback tracking, and separately scoped job coding.
Electrical contractors in Barrie and across Ontario typically run a mix of residential service calls, new construction rough-in, and commercial maintenance contracts. Each income stream has a different cost structure, different margin, and different billing cycle. Residential service might pay the same week; commercial jobs can sit 30-60 days.
Basic subcontractor payment tracking is included in both monthly services. Contractor Bookkeeping can add annual T5018 preparation and filing for $200/year plus $10 per subcontractor. Books + Back Office includes annual T5018 preparation and filing when applicable and supported by complete client records.
Basic job or project coding may be separately scoped when the client records support it. Detailed job-profitability, WIP, labour-burden, overhead-allocation, cost-to-complete, and advisory reporting are not included in standard Contractor Bookkeeping or Books + Back Office.
