Lighthouse Bookkeeping
Bookkeeping for Landscaping Businesses
Recurring maintenance work, one-time projects, and seasonal expenses can make the numbers uneven. We help organize the records behind your landscaping business in QuickBooks Online.
Recurring maintenance work, one-time projects, and seasonal expenses can make the numbers uneven. We help organize the records behind your landscaping business in QuickBooks Online.
Regular maintenance billing and project work may need different categories or tracking. We discuss the reporting you want and create an agreed structure that fits the work.
Monthly reports can help you compare activity across busier and quieter periods. Outstanding invoices and upcoming obligations belong in that conversation too.
We begin with a consultation, review your QuickBooks Online setup, and agree on the services.
You share statements and supporting records through the process we establish together and answer transaction questions.
We complete the bookkeeping and reports included in your plan.
If the books are current, we can discuss a monthly routine. If prior periods are incomplete or balances are unclear, cleanup is reviewed and quoted separately. Invoice and bill support can be added to a clear service plan.
Landscaping income and costs change with the seasons and with the mix of recurring routes and one-time projects. A consistent structure helps you see those patterns instead of guessing at them.
Separating steady recurring work from installation or seasonal projects shows which kind of work is carrying the business in a given month.
Mowers, trailers, fuel and repairs are frequent expenses. Keeping receipts and recording them consistently makes month-end review much easier.
Income and expenses can look very different from one season to the next. Current monthly records make it easier to plan around slower periods.
Plants, mulch and stone purchases and any subcontracted crews are easier to understand when they are recorded by job wherever possible.
We can review historical periods and quote the work based on the documents and condition of the books.
We discuss the tracking you need and confirm whether your software, records, and engagement support it. Additional reporting is not automatically included in every plan.
Yes, that is something we can discuss. How much detail is tracked depends on your needs, your QuickBooks Online subscription and the scope we agree on.
Bookkeeping continues each month so your records stay current. We discuss your activity during the consultation and confirm the plan that fits.
We record them from your documents and ask questions when details are unclear. How equipment is treated for tax purposes is a question for your tax professional.
Yes. Lighthouse serves clients across the United States, and consultations are held online.
