Fractional CFO for Home Improvement Companies
Running a home improvement company is no small task. From managing client expectations and project timelines to juggling subcontractors, materials, and permits, there’s little time left to focus on the financial side of the business. At Barta Business Group, we offer Fractional CFO services for home improvement companies that bring structure, clarity, and strategic guidance to your operations—without the cost of a full-time CFO. Whether you specialize in kitchens, bathrooms, additions, or full remodels, we help you grow profitably and sustainably.
How a Fractional CFO Helps Home Improvement Companies
Home improvement businesses often experience erratic cash flow, high overhead, unpredictable labor costs, and tight project margins. As projects scale up, these challenges become even more complex—making it difficult to maintain financial visibility, forecast profitability, or plan for long-term growth.
That’s where a Fractional CFO comes in. We provide expert financial leadership on a part-time or project basis—tailored to the size and complexity of your remodeling or renovation business. A Fractional CFO helps you:
-
Understand the real profitability of each project
-
Streamline billing, change orders, and payments
-
Forecast cash flow across multiple ongoing jobs
-
Identify inefficiencies and cost overruns
-
Build financial systems that scale as your company grows
We bring the insight and structure you need to manage your business today—and scale it for tomorrow.
Barta Business Group: Our Services
At Barta Business Group, we provide Fractional CFO services designed specifically for home improvement contractors and remodeling professionals. From kitchen and bath remodelers to full-service design-build firms, our services are built to support companies that need clarity, not just compliance.
Fractional CFO Services
Our fractional CFOs provide high-level financial strategy without the overhead of a full-time hire. We focus on three pillars:
The Growth Stage
Growth requires more than momentum—it demands strategic planning, financial discipline, and a clear vision for the future. With a focus on profitability, scalability, and long-term value, Fractional CFO Services provide the guidance and tools needed to help businesses reach new heights.
Health Of Your Business
Achieving peak financial health requires optimized operations, improved financial viability, and a strategic approach to growth. By refining key systems and processes, Fractional CFO Services provide the insights and tools needed to navigate the path to long-term success with confidence.
