A Familiar Pattern

Your Business Shouldn't Be Running on Guesswork.

Most business owners we talk to are dealing with one or more of these.

Books that haven't been reconciled
Months of transactions waiting to be categorized
Not knowing whether financial reports are accurate
Scrambling to organize everything for the CPA
Mixing personal and business transactions
Trying to figure out QuickBooks themselves
Falling further behind every month
Making business decisions without reliable numbers

TLG handles your bookkeeping consistently throughout the year so your financial records stay organized instead of becoming another problem waiting for you at tax time.

  • Credit-card reconciliation
  • Monthly bookkeeping review
  • Transaction clarification — we ask, we don't guess
  • Profit & Loss statement
  • Balance Sheet
  • Organized year-end financial records

Getting Started

Behind on Your Books? That's Where We Can Start.

You don't need perfect books before contacting us.

QuickBooks Setup

For businesses that need QuickBooks Online properly established and organized.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

For businesses that have fallen behind on routine monthly bookkeeping.

Cleanup Bookkeeping

For businesses with inaccurate balances, reconciliation issues, duplicate transactions, incorrect classifications, or disorganized records.

Historical Reconciliation

For financial accounts that have not been properly reconciled.

Setup, cleanup, and catch-up work are separate projects from ongoing monthly bookkeeping. After the books are brought current, clients can transition into recurring monthly service.

Beyond the Basics

Additional Bookkeeping Support

Available as expanded services, scoped separately based on the needs of the business.

How It Works

A clear path from first call to ongoing bookkeeping.

1

Discovery

We learn how your business operates, what systems you use, how your books are currently being handled, and what you need from a bookkeeper.

2

Review

We evaluate factors such as transaction volume, financial accounts, bookkeeping condition, software, payroll, and overall complexity.

3

Recommendation

We recommend the appropriate bookkeeping scope and provide a customized quote. If cleanup or catch-up work is needed first, that's scoped separately.

4

Monthly Bookkeeping

Once everything is established and current, we maintain your books consistently each month.

Industries

Bookkeeping for Growing Small Businesses.

Contractors & Construction

Roofing companies, general contractors, remodeling companies, painting contractors, and specialty trades.

Home-Service Businesses

HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, cleaning, and other service businesses.

Professional & Business Services

Consultants, agencies, professional firms, and other service-based companies.

Other Growing Small Businesses

Established businesses that need consistent professional bookkeeping and reliable monthly financial records.

Don't see your industry listed? That's okay. If you're an established business looking for ongoing professional bookkeeping, we'd still like to learn about your needs.

Fit

Is Thomas Ledger Group Right for Your Business?

TLG Works Best With Businesses That

  • Are established and actively operating
  • Have consistent financial activity
  • Need ongoing monthly bookkeeping
  • Value accurate financial records
  • Want their accounts properly reconciled
  • Need reliable reports
  • Want organized books for their CPA
  • Have outgrown DIY bookkeeping
  • Are willing to communicate when transaction clarification is required
  • Want an ongoing professional relationship with their bookkeeper

May Not Be the Right Fit

  • Doesn't want to provide documents or records
  • Routinely mixes personal and business funds
  • Only wants the cheapest possible transaction-entry service

TLG is designed for established businesses that need recurring professional bookkeeping rather than occasional recordkeeping for hobby businesses or very small side ventures.

Our Specialty

Built With Contractors in Mind.

Thomas Ledger Group works with businesses across multiple industries, but contractors and skilled trades remain an area of specialized focus. We understand that contractor bookkeeping involves more than simply seeing money come in and go out.

Materials Subcontractor Labor Employee Labor Customer Deposits Progress Payments W-9s 1099s Multiple Projects Job Profitability Cash-Flow Timing Equipment Permits Payment Delays

For contractors requiring deeper financial tracking, services such as job costing and contractor-specific reporting may be added based on the needs of the business — this isn't included in standard monthly bookkeeping by default.

About the Founder

About Quinton Thomas

Thomas Ledger Group was built to help business owners better understand the financial side of their businesses. Founder Quinton Thomas has firsthand experience working alongside a family-owned roofing and exterior company, providing insight into the realities of material costs, subcontractor payments, cash-flow timing, job profitability, and owner decision-making — insight the firm now brings to businesses across many industries.

Quinton's background is in financial accountability, not construction — he previously worked in municipal government as an Assistant Tax & Utility Collector, where he built a strong foundation in reconciliations, reporting, and managing funds with accuracy.

His exposure to the roofing industry came through close involvement with a family roofing and exterior company, where he handled the bookkeeping and financial side of the business — reconciling accounts, managing QuickBooks Online, and producing financial reports as the company grew. That experience gave him a firsthand look at how roofing companies actually manage money day to day.

You run your business. I'll run your books.

Every month, Quinton works behind the scenes to keep your QuickBooks organized, your accounts reconciled, and your financial statements accurate and tax-ready — so you always know where your business stands.

His commitment is straightforward: dependable bookkeeping, responsive communication, and financial clarity you can actually use.

Investment

Pricing Based on the Work Your Business Requires.

Every contracting business is different.

Pricing depends on factors such as monthly transaction volume, number of bank and credit-card accounts, payroll activity, job-costing needs, accounts receivable, accounts payable, subcontractor volume, and the current condition of your books.

Every Engagement Includes

  • Monthly bookkeeping & reconciliations
  • Monthly financial close
  • Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet
  • Tax-ready books
  • Direct communication with your bookkeeper

Scoped to Your Business

  • Job costing & project tracking
  • Accounts receivable support
  • Accounts payable support
  • Contractor compliance support
  • Multi-entity bookkeeping
How Pricing Works
No two businesses are scoped the same way.
Your monthly investment is determined after a discovery call and financial review, based on what your business actually requires — not a flat rate.

Every engagement begins with a discovery call and financial review. We then recommend a service scope based on what your business actually needs. Cleanup and catch-up bookkeeping are quoted separately after reviewing your books.
