Trades & Construction

Stop Quoting Jobs on Gut Feel and Hoping You Made Money.

We help trade and construction businesses track every dollar on every job — so you know exactly what each project costs, what it earns, and whether it was worth doing. No more finding out you lost money after the job's done.

Fully Booked. Flat Out. Still No Cash Left at the End of the Month.

1

Quoting Blind, Losing Money

You quoted a big job, won it, and only found out at the end that material price hikes and extra subbie hours wiped out your margin. Without real-time job costing, you're guessing — and it's costing you tens of thousands.

2

Cash Rich One Month, Broke the Next

Big progress claims land and the bank looks healthy. Then subbies need paying, materials invoices come due, and GST is around the corner. You're on a constant cash flow rollercoaster with no visibility of what's ahead.

3

Subbies, Receipts, and Admin Chaos

Subcontractor compliance, receipts from site, variations that never get invoiced — your admin is scattered across utes, text messages, and shoeboxes. Weekends disappear into catching up on paperwork.

4

A Surprise Tax Bill After a Big Year

You had a strong year on the tools. Then your accountant tells you in May that you owe $60k in tax with no time to plan for it. No strategy, no warning, just a bill.

How We Help

Accounting & Advisory Built for Trades & Construction

Everything you need to run a profitable, scalable trade business without getting bogged down in administration.

🏗️

Track materials, labour, and subbie costs against every job in real time. Know whether a project is profitable while it's still running — not after it's finished.

👷

We manage subbie payments, track ABNs and insurances, and ensure your TPAR obligations are met. No compliance gaps, no late payments to your crew.

📈

Cash Flow Forecasting

See what's coming — progress claims, material bills, GST, tax instalments. A rolling forecast so you can pay subbies and suppliers on time without emptying the bank.

🔮

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. While Xero is the foundational ledger, we frequently integrate and manage job-management tools like Buildxact, Tradify, Fergus, or Simpro to ensure your operational data directly feeds into accurate real-time job costing.
Absolutely. One of the biggest mistakes trade businesses make is guessing their rates. We factor in your exact overheads, vehicle costs, insurance, and realistic downtime to calculate a true break-even and a highly profitable target charge-out rate.
