FRACTIONAL CFO FOR SIDING CONTRACTORS.
We run the finance function for siding subcontractors doing $1M to $12M: job costing aligned to the way you estimate, a 13 week cash flow forecast, monthly WIP, and a CFO in the room every month. Pricing starts at $1,900 per month.
Siding is the last trade to touch the wall, which means it explains first when water turns up years later. So we get scope boundaries written down before the first course goes on, covering whose housewrap, whose window flashing, and whose integration at every penetration, and we photograph cover-up conditions as a standing habit. We split the four product lines in the cost codes, because vinyl, fiber cement, engineered wood, and metal panel run different material costs, crew skills, and fastening specs, and manufacturer requirements on clearance, gapping, and fasteners are warranty conditions rather than suggestions. Then we track production by detail class, since field wall sets the pace the bid remembers and corners, trim, and transitions set the pace the job runs.
THE THREE THINGS THAT DRAIN THE CASH.
The Seam That Leaks Later
WRB, flashing, and integration scope seams surface as leak claims years after cover-up, and the last trade to touch the wall explains first. Written boundaries and cover-up photos are the cladding contractor's decade-long testimony.
The Warranty Gate
Manufacturer installation specs are warranty conditions: clearances, gapping, and fastener schedules installed outside the book kill the product warranty and leave the installer holding the tail. Spec-compliance documentation is the QC that pays.
The Field-Wall Illusion
Squares of field wall set the pace the bid remembers; corners, trim, and transitions set the pace the job actually runs. Production tracked by detail class is the difference between a 5.5 percent floor and the levers above it. (cfos-job-profitability-system) ---

The onboarding fee covers migrating your books back to the start of your last taxable year and getting you fully operational in 60 days. It's billed once, with your first invoice. It's the same for all three tiers. Your first month is prorated, and your monthly engagement starts on the first of the first full month.
Range reflects the three tiers below. Which one you're in depends on how much of the work you want off your desk. No payroll. No hidden line items. The onboarding fee is right here in the table.
