Hard hat, blueprint, set of drawings for a new or small contractor

Certified payroll. AIA billing. Job costing.

It's a lot, especially when you're just getting started.

I work with new and small contractors to handle the financial side so you can focus on the work you actually do.

Sound familiar?

Just starting out — You're licensed, you're landing jobs, and now you're realizing nobody told you about certified payroll, prevailing wage, or how to bill properly. Let's get it right from day one.

Been at it a while — Your books are somewhere between organized and chaotic, you're not totally sure if your jobs are profitable, and month-end is something you avoid. Let's fix that.

Either way, I can help. Let's talk.

Here's a quick gut check for your contracting business.

6 questions. Honest results. No fluff.

🔸 Your jobs stay profitable when you know exactly where the money is going — labor, materials, subs, overhead, all tracked.

🔸 Certified payroll and AIA billing get done right and on time, so you don't lose contracts or hold up draws.

🔸 Every month you get a clear picture of where your business stands — no guessing, no surprises.

What you get if we work together...

"I’ve worked with Lena for several years on both my personal and business taxes. She explains things clearly, answers questions without rushing, and always makes sure everything is done correctly. She’s patient, responsive, and very organized, which gives me peace of mind every tax season. I trust her with my business because she genuinely cares about accuracy and making sure everything is handled the right way. I’d recommend her to any small business owner who wants a reliable CPA they can actually talk to.
