Accountants for tradies and construction — online, Australia-wide
From a one-ute sparkie to a crew of twenty, the numbers problems are the same: cash that arrives months after the work, BAS that sneaks up, and gear decisions made at the register. We fix all three — without you leaving the site.
The package that fits
Most trade businesses with staff land on Company Growth: bookkeeping, payroll with STP and payday super, BAS, annual accounts and tax in one fixed monthly fee. Sole operators start on the Sole Trader plan and upgrade when the first employee starts.
- Everything in Essentials
- Monthly Xero bookkeeping
- Payroll to 10 staff (STP & payday super)
- Monthly one-page report
Prices ex GST, current at [[month year]], for standard-complexity work; a fixed quote is confirmed before we start. Full price list on the pricing page.
Construction is where fixed fees earn their keep: the work is seasonal, the cash is lumpy and the compliance calendar doesn’t care. Our trade clients run on Xero with receipt capture from the ute, payroll that pays super with every run, and a monthly one-page report that shows — before the quarter ends — whether the margin on the job matched the quote.
When you’re ready to grow past the owner-does-everything stage, the virtual CFO service adds the 12-month cash-flow forecast built around claims and retentions, so hiring, gear and quiet Januaries are decisions made in advance.
The compliance that matters in your industry
Retentions and progress claims
Revenue recognition on claims, retention ledgers tracked to release dates, and a forecast that shows the gap between billed and banked.
Instant asset write-off, done properly
Eligibility thresholds change and timing matters. We confirm the current rules before you buy, and structure finance so the deduction and the repayments both make sense.
Subcontractors and TPAR
Contractor-versus-employee is tested before the ATO or a state revenue office does it for you, and the Taxable Payments Annual Report is lodged from clean records.
Questions, answered
I'm on the tools all day. How does the online thing actually work?
Photos of receipts from your phone, bank feeds doing the data entry, and a video call after knock-off for anything that needs talking through. Most clients spend under half an hour a month on their books.
Can you sort out my backlog of BAS?
Yes — overdue BAS and returns are quoted per period, we deal with the ATO on penalties and payment plans, and then the monthly plan keeps you permanently current.
Should I be a sole trader or a company?
Once profit beats what you'd pay yourself as a wage, or contracts carry real risk, a company usually wins. The restructure rollover often makes the switch tax-free — we flag it when your numbers say it's time.
Do you understand retentions and progress claims?
Yes — construction cash flow is a core part of our virtual CFO work. Retention ledgers, claim schedules and a 12-month forecast built around them are standard, not exotic.
