What it looks like in practice
The same system runs in every business we work with: clean books, the right numbers in front of the owner, and fixes made in order of dollar value. Our average client grows net profit by more than 10% in their first six months. See some of our results.
Bookkeeping for landscaping companies
Books that plan for the slow season.
Maintenance routes, install projects, seasonal crews, fuel, equipment, and a slow season every year. We track profit by route and job and plan your cash so the off months don't catch you short.
Where landscaping books go wrong
And how we fix each one.
Summer cash, winter crunch
Peak months fill the account, then the slow season drains it. Payroll gets tight right when the work dries up.
How we fix itSlow-season runway on your phone, and with advisory a cash plan built during peak months so payroll is covered when work slows.
Bids built on feel
Installs and maintenance get priced by gut, so some properties lose money every visit.
How we fix itProfit by route and job, with labor, fuel, and materials against what each property pays, so you know what to reprice.
Equipment and fuel creep
Mowers, trucks, trailers, fuel, and repairs add up, and loan payments get booked as one big expense.
How we fix itFuel and repairs tracked as costs, and equipment loans split into principal and interest, so you see what the fleet really costs.
Crews that change by season
Seasonal hires and overtime make payroll a moving target.
How we fix itWith Books and payroll, seasonal hires and changes handled in your payroll provider as the season turns.
The numbers you'll watch
On your phone, in the Dash, every month.
Margin by route or job
