Rodriguez CPA PLLC is a construction-focused accounting firm that markets construction CPA and accounting services to Fort Lauderdale and Broward County contractors. The firm’s listed address is 1000 Novus Lane, Chapel Hill, NC 27514, and its site describes the practice as being based on the Eastern Seaboard. Because the firm is located in North Carolina and reaches Fort Lauderdale through a service-area page, it does not maintain a local Fort Lauderdale office; its presence in the market is remote. The firm states it has 15 years of experience and references five-star reviews, and it offers services in both English and Spanish.
Services
Rodriguez CPA describes its practice as built entirely around construction accounting for builders, contractors, and tradespeople. According to the firm, its services help clients track job costs to identify profitable projects, manage cash flow around draw schedules and delayed payments, understand true project profitability before bidding, maximize deductions for labor, materials, equipment, and subcontractors, and avoid tax-time surprises through proactive planning. The firm presents itself as a forward-looking financial partner rather than a bookkeeper alone.
The firm organizes its work into three packages. The Essentials Package, described for companies typically at $100K or more in revenue, includes construction-specific bookkeeping, job costing setup and tracking, a custom chart of accounts, monthly reporting, annual tax preparation with industry-specific deductions, and email support. The Growth Package, aimed at contractors around $400K or more, adds monthly KPI tracking and job profitability insights, cash flow forecasting tied to project schedules, quarterly tax planning, and phone and virtual support. The Executive Package, for companies at $1M or more, adds advanced tax strategy and entity planning, cash reserve and wealth modeling, quarterly projections and advisory sessions, payroll, hiring, and scaling strategies, and succession and exit planning.
Who They Serve
The firm states that it serves the trades and nothing else, supporting electricians, general contractors, plumbers, HVAC professionals, painters, remodelers, and other tradespeople. It indicates it works with both smaller contractors and specialty trades, such as electrical, plumbing, and HVAC, as well as larger general contractors and developers, and it states that a construction CPA provides scalable solutions aligned with a business’s size and complexity. The site frames Fort Lauderdale’s market around high-rise condos along Las Olas, residential renovations, and commercial builds across Broward County, and it notes Florida-specific challenges such as hurricane-season disruptions, insurance compliance, fluctuating material costs, and licensing rules. The firm argues that generic accounting does not work for project-based income and that contractors need a financial partner rather than only a bookkeeper.
Approach & Tools
Beyond its packages, Rodriguez CPA offers standalone strategy sessions for clients who want guidance without a long-term contract. The site lists a 50-Minute Power Session at $600, described as suited to questions about S-Corp timing, payroll setup, tax deadlines, or QuickBooks troubleshooting, and Two 4-Hour Deep Dive Sessions at $2,500, described as suited to companies restructuring or building a long-term profitability roadmap. The firm states that it can prepare clean financial statements, WIP schedules, and cash-flow reports required by bonding companies or lenders, and it positions its job-costing systems and budget-to-actual reports as tools for cost control.
Service Area and Contact
Rodriguez CPA PLLC publishes service-area pages for several markets, including locations in North Carolina (Charlotte, Durham, Raleigh), Florida (Fort Lauderdale, Jacksonville, Miami, Naples, Orlando, Tampa), Massachusetts (Boston), and Rhode Island (Providence). The site lists a phone number, offers a free consultation, and provides a client portal. The firm states that it recommends contractors meet with their construction CPA at least quarterly, and ideally monthly, to track job profitability, cash flow, and tax positions rather than waiting until year-end, and it notes that a construction CPA and an internal bookkeeper can play complementary roles. This listing reflects the construction accounting services, packages, and remote positioning stated on the firm’s own website for contractors in the Fort Lauderdale market.
