I'm Christopher, founder of Ledger & Stone Advisors.
I'm not a bookkeeper who learned about trades—I'm a tradesperson who learned bookkeeping.
I spent 20+ years in the field: ASE certified mechanic, 8 years in property maintenance and facility management, plus HVAC work. I've done electrical, plumbing, drywall, fencing, and everything in between.
I've seen contractors do great work but have no idea if they're actually making money. I've watched guys price jobs based on guesses instead of real costs.
Now I'm a QuickBooks ProAdvisor who helps trades businesses track real costs, set up job costing, and figure out which jobs are worth taking—because I've lived the work you do every day.
I serve electricians, plumbers, HVAC contractors, carpenters, roofers, and other skilled trades across the US with remote bookkeeping services.
Know exactly which jobs make you money and which don't. Track costs by job type (residential vs commercial, service calls vs installs) so you can price with confidence instead of guessing.
Keep your books clean, organized, and up to date with QuickBooks Online. Monthly reconciliation, transaction categorization, and financial reporting—so you know where your business actually stands.
Get QuickBooks set up properly for trades businesses from the start. Chart of accounts tailored to contractors, job costing categories, bank connections, and customization for your specific services.
Understand your numbers with clear profit & loss statements by job type, balance sheets, and cash flow reports. Know if you can afford that next hire or piece of equipment.
Ready to get your books in order and gain clarity on your finances? I offer free 30-minute consultations to discuss your needs and see if we're a good fit.
