construction industry
Most accountants can produce a financial statement for a contractor. Fewer can produce one your surety will act on.
We've built our practice around construction for a long time now — general contractors, engineering contractors, the specialty trades, and the family-owned builders who have been working for two and three generations. That focus shows up in ordinary ways. We help you keep work-in-progress schedules that reconcile regularly rather than once a year. We know why your under and over billings matter to an underwriter, and what it costs you when nobody has documented them.
Our expertise also shows up in a conversation most contractors never get to have. Year-end tax planning and bonding capacity pull against each other — every dollar you take out or spend at year end comes off your balance sheet your surety reads. Somebody has to sit between the tax return and the bond program and model both before the year closes. That's just one area where you’ll experience the difference working with Scholl & Arensdorf.
Because contractors are usually closely held and family-run, the conversation tends to reach succession eventually: who qualifies the license, what the surety will accept, and how to hand it over without taking the company apart.
If any of that sounds like your situation, we'd be glad to take a look. No charge for the conversation.
