How money moves for contractors

Most contractors get paid through deposits, progress payments, and final invoices on each job. The biggest costs usually come from materials, subcontractors, equipment, and crew labor. Good books separate all of that so you can see what each part of the business really earns.

You often pay for materials and labor weeks before the client pays you. One slow-paying customer can stall the next job. Many contractors pay a mix of W-2 crew members and 1099 subcontractors, and each group needs to be tracked and reported differently.

Vehicle and equipment purchases, subcontractor 1099s, and job materials all affect what you owe. Keeping receipts tied to the right job makes deductions much easier to support.
