We're a bookkeeping firm in Austin, Texas built for pest control companies — recurring revenue accounting, chemical cost management, route profitability, and a monthly close that shows you whether your subscription base is growing in value or just in volume. We coordinate with your CPA on tax filings.
Pest control businesses run on route density, chemical cost control, and recurring contract churn. Most bookkeepers treat chemical purchases as a lump expense and have no concept of cost-per-stop or contract-level margin. The result: you know your revenue but not your profit.
Recurring billing and crew costs, always current.
Accurate categorization of chemical costs, labor, route overhead, and recurring vs one-time revenue. Full monthly close with P&L and balance sheet — split by service type so you see the real margin of your subscription base vs one-time treatments. See all services
Monthly, quarterly, and annual service agreements tracked separately — so you see your true monthly recurring revenue, renewal rates, and contract churn. Deferred revenue treatment applied correctly when annual contracts are prepaid.
Chemical and product purchases tracked as job-level cost of goods sold — not lumped into general supplies. Cost per stop tracked by service type so you know your true gross margin on general pest, termite, mosquito, and specialty services.
Payroll for licensed applicators, field techs, and office staff — correct workers' comp classification per role, quarterly 941 reconciliation, Gusto integration. License renewal cost tracking per employee.
Service vehicles tracked as fixed assets with correct depreciation schedules — Section 179 and bonus depreciation documented and reconciled to your CPA's tax return categories. Mileage or actual cost method tracked per vehicle.
Chemical supplier invoices, equipment, and vendor bills tracked and paid on schedule so your AP is current and your chemical cost data is accurate for margin analysis.
MRR by contract type, gross margin per service category, cost per stop, vehicle fleet costs, and cash flow forecast — updated monthly so you manage the business on real numbers.
Tax filings and legal matters — coordinated with your CPA or attorney. Turnkey CFO is a bookkeeping firm; we don't provide tax or legal advice.
Monthly recurring revenue tracks the actual value of your subscription base — net of cancellations, upgrades, and new adds. Knowing your MRR, churn rate, and average contract value lets you make real decisions about marketing spend, route expansion, and acquisition vs retention investment.
General pest service uses minimal chemical per stop. Termite treatments, mosquito programs, and fumigations are chemical-intensive. Without tracking chemical cost per service type, you can't tell which services are priced correctly — or which are eroding your gross margin as input costs rise.
Drive time between stops is a fixed labor cost. Routes with low geographic density have higher cost per stop than dense urban routes at the same contract price. Without route-level cost tracking, you can't identify which routes to reprice, consolidate, or walk away from at renewal.
When a customer prepays an annual contract, you've collected cash but not yet earned the revenue. Booking it all at collection overstates income in Q1 and understates it for the rest of the year. We recognize prepaid contract revenue monthly as service is performed — correct from day one.
Licensed structural pest control applicators and general field techs carry different workers' comp classification codes. Coding everyone under one class overpays premiums and creates audit exposure at renewal. Correct classification set up from first payroll, reconciled annually.
Service vehicles, spray rigs, and major equipment are fixed assets depreciated over 5–7 years. Section 179 and bonus depreciation can accelerate deductions in the purchase year. We track every asset from purchase and reconcile to your CPA's return categories at year-end.
