Cleanup & Catch-Up Services

Get your books fully corrected, organized, and tax-ready — no matter how behind things feel.

What This Service Is

Cleanup & catch-up is the process of fixing your books from the past year (or several years), organizing every transaction properly, correcting errors, and getting everything aligned so your financials are accurate and usable.

We rebuild your books the right way:

  • Categorizing and correcting transactions

  • Reconciling bank & credit card accounts

  • Fixing uncategorized / duplicated / missing items

  • Organizing everything for tax season

  • Making sure the numbers actually mean something

By the end, you’ll have a clean financial foundation you can trust — and a clear starting point for ongoing bookkeeping.

Why Construction Businesses Need It

Construction books get messy fast. Between overlapping jobs, deposits, materials, subs, payroll, and unexpected costs, things can fall behind without anyone noticing.

Cleanup helps you:

  • Stop stressing about what’s wrong or missing

  • Get up-to-date financials that your CPA can rely on

  • Avoid costly tax mistakes

  • Understand actual job profitability

  • Start fresh with clean, accurate books

It’s the difference between feeling lost — and finally having control again.

What Compass Does Differently

Construction cleanup isn’t basic cleanup. It requires industry experience, accuracy, and the ability to untangle complex contractor workflows.

With Compass, you get:

  • A full structural review of your existing books

  • A detailed plan of what needs correcting and why

  • A cleanup built specifically for construction workflows

  • Accurate job-costing alignment (if applicable)

  • Open, proactive communication so you always know what’s happening

  • A team who genuinely cares about your success

And we don’t just clean things up — we set you up so it stays clean.

What’s Included

  • Full review of prior months/years

  • Categorizing all missing or incorrect transactions

  • Bank & credit card reconciliation

  • Cleanup of uncategorized expenses

  • Fixing duplicates and errors

  • Financials brought fully current

  • Month-end tie-outs to ensure accuracy

  • Final report detailing everything corrected

    (For construction businesses needing ongoing support, monthly bookkeeping can be added after cleanup is completed.)
