FinTruction · Construction Clients

Proof from our construction brand

Real US-based contractors. Same team, same operational discipline that we now bring to gas stations. Construction is a different vertical - but the muscle (multi-stream books, cost reconciliation, niche specialization) is the same one stations need.

"They didn't just record transactions and call it a day. They built a custom chart of accounts around how a remodeling company actually runs, did a full catch-up on years of bookkeeping inside QuickBooks Online, and now stay on top of my monthly bookkeeping and payroll."

Oniel Campbell Oniel Campbell
Founder, Moonz Contracting

"Sahil and his team have been handling the bookkeeping and job costing for my painting business. They've done a great job cleaning up my books, using integrations to give me accurate, timely job costing and solid weekly data. Reliable, and the team is very detailed."

Dalton Mayberry Dalton Mayberry
Owner, ProperCoat Painting
Carl Moore

"They rebuilt the whole thing from the ground up, with real job costing, WIP, and retainage."

Carl Moore

Owner, Hearth & Haus

"They set the accounts up properly first, then cleaned up everything I never entered."

Rolian Rolian
Owner, Overtime Electric

"When I came to them I had no financial structure in place at all. No job costing, no WIP tracking, books were behind, no real way to tell if any job was actually making money. They came in, did a full cleanup, and set up job costing and WIP tracking inside QuickBooks."

Clay Pearson Clay Pearson
Owner, C. Pearson Contracting Corp

The New Haven market

What it takes to keep New Haven station books clean

Yale University's steady population, the Port of New Haven's petroleum supply-chain role, and the I-95/I-91 interstate interchange shape this market, spanning Hamden, West Haven, East Haven, Branford, Woodbridge, and North Haven. Connecticut's two-part fuel tax and flat 6.35% sales tax apply the same way here as in Hartford, but New Haven's coastal port and university economics create a different demand pattern entirely. New Haven owners need a gas station accounting firm that understands both.

Daily books

Gas Station Bookkeeping in New Haven

Clean books start with daily work. Our gas station bookkeeping in New Haven reconciles POS to bank across cash, credit, debit, and fleet cards every day, matches fuel to your jobber statements, and keeps every transaction categorized - so you're never looking at numbers that are 30 days old.

We work directly in your QuickBooks, Xero, or Sage file from your CStoreOffice, PDI, SSCS, or Petrosoft exports - no migration, no on-site visit, just accurate CT-compliant books and an on-time monthly close.

Every revenue stream gets its own line - fuel, merchandise, car wash, lottery, ATM, and whatever else runs through your registers - so nothing gets blended into a single number you can't act on. You get a one-page owner report every month, plus Accountant-ready financials your outside accountant or tax preparer can use at filing time without asking you to explain your own books first.

The store side

C-Store Accountant in New Haven

As your C-Store Accountant in New Haven, we handle the store side most fuel accountants ignore - category-level merchandise margins, foodservice and deli cost, multi-category sales tax, and lottery, ATM, and money-order activity.

  • Connecticut's Motor Vehicle Fuels Tax is a fixed 25¢/gallon, plus a separate 8.1% Petroleum Products Gross Earnings Tax on wholesale sales that has recently added another 20-25¢/gallon depending on wholesale prices.
  • Connecticut has no local sales tax anywhere in the state - New Haven's rate is the flat statewide 6.35%, with no city or county add-on.
  • Connecticut's top individual income tax rate is 6.99% (on income over $500,000 single / $1,000,000 joint).
  • A large university anchors a steady population of students, staff, and visiting families driving year-round foot and vehicle traffic near campus, with predictable dips over summer and winter breaks.
  • I-95 and I-91 physically interchange in New Haven, making it a genuine coastal interstate through-traffic hub rather than a purely local market.
  • The Port of New Haven is a deep-water petroleum products receiving and distribution point, giving the city's fuel supply chain a regional dimension most inland Connecticut markets don't have.
  • Tweed New Haven Airport, about 4 miles from downtown and Yale just off I-95, has been expanding commercial service - adding air-travel-adjacent fuel and convenience demand to the local mix.

About FuelCFO

Your Petroleum Accountant New Haven

FuelCFO is a petroleum accountant New Haven by focus, not by accident. We don't also do restaurants and law firms - we do fuel retail and convenience stores, every day, which is how we know wet stock variance, jobber credits, prepaid fuel tax, and per-grade COGS cold.

That focus means New Haven owners get an accountant who already speaks their language: Gilbarco and Verifone, CStoreOffice and PDI, WEX and Comdata, fuel excise and multi-category sales tax. No ramp-up, no explaining your business - just clean books and clear numbers from month one.

We work remotely with station owners nationwide - one location or fifty, branded or unbranded - so New Haven owners get the same dedicated team every month, not a rotating pool of generalist bookkeepers. That consistency is what lets us catch a shrinking fuel margin or a missed jobber credit before it costs you real money, instead of finding it months later at tax time.

Yes. Catching up is a common starting point - we reconstruct missed months of reconciliation, fuel COGS, and jobber matching so your books and filings are current, not just for this year but corrected retroactively where needed.
It means a full close every month - POS-to-bank reconciliation, per-grade fuel COGS tied to your Port of New Haven-supplied deliveries, jobber statement matching, and category-level c-store margins, delivered on a predictable schedule.
