QuickBooks Cleanup for Contractors

It happens to good contractors all the time: the work picks up, the books slide, and before long QuickBooks is a tangle of uncategorized transactions, unreconciled accounts, and balances nobody can explain. If that's where you are, you're not behind because you're careless — you're behind because you've been busy running a business. Cleaning it up is my specialty.

I'm Nalini Pratap, a Certified QuickBooks Online ProAdvisor serving Reno and Sparks. Cleanup and catch-up work is the messy stuff most bookkeepers quietly avoid — and it's exactly what I take on.

What a QuickBooks cleanup involves

• Reconciling your accounts — bank and credit card accounts brought back into agreement with your statements, month by month.
• Fixing categorization — transactions sorted correctly so your reports actually mean something.
• Untangling the unexplained — loans, transfers, owner draws, and merchant deposits sorted out and put in their proper place.
• A clean starting point — once it's caught up, your books are ready for steady monthly bookkeeping going forward.

Why contractors need this more than most

Construction books get messy faster than most businesses — lots of transactions, materials and subcontractor payments, deposits and progress billing, and jobs overlapping. A generic cleanup misses the contractor-specific pieces. Because I focus on the trades, I know what to look for.

How it works

Every cleanup starts with understanding how far behind things are and what shape the file is in — then you get a clear, written quote before any work begins. No surprise hourly bills. Everything is handled remotely and securely.
