Bookkeeping for Roofers

Bookkeeping for Roofers in Ontario

Ridge & Ledger provides monthly and catch-up bookkeeping for Ontario roofing businesses, using property-level billing, supplier, disposal, and owner-approved job records. Monthly scope and price are confirmed through the paid Roadmap.

Roofing compresses estimates, deposits, supplier loads, dump fees, crew costs, and collections into a short weather-dependent season. The monthly process has to keep each address and material order visible while work is moving quickly.

Records

The records your business actually generates

  • Estimates converted to invoices, deposits, supplements, and collections
  • Shingle and membrane supplier loads, returns, and credits
  • Bin, disposal, lift, permit, fuel, and subcontract-crew costs
  • Job exports, bank feeds, fuel cards, and financing reports

Monthly workflow

How the record trail moves through month end

  1. Import completed roofs and customer billings alongside supplier load tickets and disposal records.
  2. Match materials, bins, equipment, and approved crew bills to the property codes supplied by the roofer.
  3. Reconcile seasonal cash activity and flag unused material credits, unpaid supplements, missing loads, and unbilled completions.

Cleanup risks

Where this trade's books commonly break

  • A season of supplier tickets entered late without property references
  • Returned shingles or membrane credits left unmatched to the original load
  • Insurance supplements or completed extras missing from final invoices
