Accounting services for construction aren’t just about numbers. Contractors need financial leadership that protects margins, keeps projects moving, and gives owners confidence to make big decisions. That’s exactly what LLUM™ delivers with our construction fractional CFO services; designed specifically for contractors.
If any of these hit close to home, a construction fractional CFO from LLUM™ is the next step.
A bookkeeper records what happened. A CFO plans ahead and helps you make decisions before problems hit.
Construction companies need both. Outsource accounting services or in-house teams provide the foundation, but only a CFO turns the numbers into decisions that drive results.
We strengthen your current accounting setup, not replace it. LLUM™ integrates with your bookkeeper, controller, or outsourced accounting services to reduce errors, improve reporting, and ensure your team aligns with your financial goals.
LLUM™ is built for construction. We know retainage, labor burden, progress billing, and every moving part of construction accounting. Every report is tailored to your projects. Every recommendation considers how jobs run in real life. You get clarity and confidence in your financial decisions, month after month.
“LLŪM’s experience and assistance has been crucial as we embark on an accounting system migration. Throw in the curve ball of an unexpected change to our internal Controller, and LLŪM’s expertise in accounting best practices, across industries, and with NetSuite has been game-changing for us. Although all work is completed remotely, it feels as if our LLŪM team is here with us. Even better is that Tim, our primary contact at LLŪM, makes accounting – and learning about accounting – actually fun.”

“At the end of 2021 my company was short-staffed and way behind in accounting. We struggled to find the support and help we needed until we found LLŪM. I am so grateful to be working with Laurie, a Controller at LLŪM. She is so knowledgeable, attentive, and patient. She helped us to get caught up and still provides the continued support and mentorship that I desperately need. I do not exaggerate when I say I would not have made it through this last year without her. It’s been a great experience and I would highly recommend LLŪM to anyone with accounting needs.”

“After going through two accounting firms, we had gotten to the point of giving up on the accounting for our construction company. We could not find a specialized company that understood Timberline software alongside having good industry knowledge. We were referred by our CPA to LLŪM and from our initial meeting, we were blown away. Fast forward 2 years and we are now receiving a reliable set of financials and meeting with a Controller that understands our industry and trade.”
Building Processes & Job Costing Clarity
“LLŪM completely transformed how we manage our job costing and AR/AP. Before working with them, we didn’t have clear processes, and our WIP reports were overwhelming. Now, we not only understand our over- and under-billings, but we also have the confidence to make the right financial decisions for our projects and company growth. Their team helped us build a financial structure that gives us clarity and consistency month after month.”
Tax Savings, Financial Clarity & Strategic Partnerships
“The LLŪM team connected us with a construction-focused tax CPA who uncovered thousands of dollars in R&D credits and tax opportunities we had been missing for years. We now close our financials every month and review cash flow forecasts and WIP reports to clearly understand job performance. LLŪM also created SOPs for our internal AR/AP staff, ensuring consistency and accountability. As an owner, I finally feel confident knowing our financials are accurate, our processes are strong, and I can make informed decisions about new projects and business growth.”

“We used to be three months behind on our financials, constantly playing catch-up and making decisions with outdated information. LLŪM helped us create efficient month-end processes so we can close our books by the 15th of each month. Now, our financials are accurate, timely, and actionable. This change has freed me from being buried in details — I can finally focus on business development and driving growth instead of worrying about what’s missing in the books.”
Confidence Through Accurate WIP Reporting
“Before LLŪM, I would stay up at night worrying about cash flow and job performance because I had no clear visibility. Now, I actually look forward to our monthly CFO meetings. We review timely WIP reports, updated forecasts, and accurate financials that give me complete confidence in our numbers. Those conversations have gone from stressful to strategic — we’re making decisions based on real data, not gut instinct.”
“What sets LLŪM apart is their proactive approach. They don’t just handle the basic accounting tasks; they go above and beyond to provide valuable insights and recommendations for improving our financial health. Whenever I have a question or need assistance, their team is always responsive and readily available to provide guidance in a clear and concise manner. I highly recommend LLŪM to any business owner or individual seeking a reliable, knowledgeable and trustworthy accounting partner.”

“LLŪM came in and was our backbone in implementing Avalara and multiple automation technologies within our brand. We grew drastically and LLŪM ramped up with us throughout the whole process. Their accounting staff was attentive and responsive throughout our entire engagement. We ended up achieving growth to where we needed to hire our own accounting team and LLŪM was extremely helpful in that process as well! We couldn’t have done this without them.”
