Accounting Built Specifically for Excavating & Site Work Contractors.
Traditional accountants treat a $200k excavator like a retail store fixture. We know how machine depreciation actually impacts your cash flow.
Equipment Overhead Leaks
Financing, maintenance, track wear, and fuel eat margins fast. If your hourly rate doesn’t track true machine ownership costs, you are paying to dig the hole.
The Frozen Ground Trap
Big checks during peak digging season create false confidence. Without strategic reserves, winter downtime turns normal fixed overhead into a dangerous cash crunch.
Unbilled Scope Changes
Bad soil, utilities, or rock force operator delays and extra machine hours. If change orders aren't tracked and billed immediately, you lose profit on every yard.

Excavation Accounting FAQ
Based in Blanchester, Ohio · serving excavating contractors across Cincinnati, Dayton and Southwest Ohio.
Do you work with excavating contractors outside Cincinnati?
Yes. We're based in Blanchester, Ohio and work with excavating and site work contractors across Cincinnati, Dayton and Southwest Ohio.
How do I figure out my machine cost per hour?
Add up what it costs to own the machine (payments or depreciation, insurance, storage) and to run it (fuel, maintenance, wear parts), then divide by the hours it actually works in a year. We calculate this for every machine in your fleet.
How should an excavating company plan for winter?
Set aside part of every peak-season payment in a separate account, then use a cash forecast to see how many slow months it will cover.
Should I buy or finance new equipment?
It depends on your cash, your tax picture and how many hours the machine will work. We run the numbers before you sign, including how the purchase affects your taxes.
Can you handle payroll for operators and crews?
Yes. Bookkeeping, payroll, tax and financial strategy are all handled by one team.
