Construction

Construction accounting has many unique aspects that require an expert. Being successful these days takes more than being a good technician. Having the right entity, bank support and understanding the numbers are all necessary to maximize effectiveness in today’s competitive environment.

Cash flow…job costing…overhead allocation…bidding procedures…bonding issues…compliance…all affect your bottom line. With years of expertise gained from assisting construction companies, contractors, subcontractors, architects, and engineers, we know the challenges of the business and provide solid and innovative solutions.

The most important relationship a business owner can develop is with their CPA, we are fortunate to have found Mark Rivera and the GYL team. His knowledge has helped us in making business decisions that not only saved us money but helped our business grow.
