What's different about your books

Where plumbing books go wrong

The fixes are simple once someone is watching every month.

Parts runs

Supply house charges across several jobs on one card, all landing in one expense line.

Trip charges and minimums

Without job costing, you can't tell if your minimum covers drive time.

Big jobs, slow pay

Repipes and commercial work paid in draws make cash flow lumpy.

Techs and apprentices

Payroll, overtime and helpers who are sometimes 1099, sometimes not.

Truck costs

Fuel, tools and inventory on the truck are real costs that get missed.

Commercial vs. residential

Commercial repair is generally taxable in Texas. Residential repair labor generally isn't.

Our guarantees

The deal, in plain English

Three promises in writing, so the risk sits with us, not you.

Closed by the 10th, or that month is free

If your books aren't closed by the 10th, you don't pay for that month. Applies while your accounts stay connected and you answer the weekly text within 3 business days.

CPA-ready, or we fix it and the next month is free

If your CPA or tax preparer sends back anything in our year-end package, we fix it within 5 business days and your next month is on us.

No contracts. Your books stay yours.

Month to month. Cancel any time with 30 days' notice, and your QuickBooks file and every report go with you.

Start by December 15, 2026: your 2026 1099s are filed free

Any number of forms, on any plan. 1099-NECs are due to the IRS and your contractors by January 31, so this is the month to get it handled. We onboard 10 new businesses a month so every client gets a bookkeeper who knows them.

Questions

Straight answers

Do you track job costs for service plumbers?

Yes. On Growth we tag revenue, parts and labor by job type, so you can see if service calls, water heaters or repipes earn the most per hour.

Can you handle payroll for my techs?

Yes, $99/mo for up to 10 people, with federal filings, W-2s and Texas Workforce Commission reports.

What if I'm months behind?

Start with a Catch-up Sprint: $350 per month behind, done in 14 days.

Ready to get your evenings back?

Two minutes, eight taps, and you'll know exactly where your books stand, plus which plan fits.
