THE PROBLEM

Most construction owners are running the job and the business at the same time.

That’s a hard thing to do well — especially when cash flow doesn’t match your invoices, margins are unclear and every hire feels like a gamble.

Tight on cash Profitable on paper, but the bank tells a different story
No job visibility No clear picture of which projects actually make money
Scaling without systems Growing the crew without the infrastructure to support it
Too many vendors Finance, marketing, and HR siloed from each other

WHO WE WORK WITH

Built for owner-led construction and trades businesses

We work best with companies past the survival stage and ready to build something durable — typically $500k+ in annual revenue with real ambition to grow.

General contractors

Residential and commercial, multi-crew operations managing complex projects.

Trades & subcontractors

Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, framing, finishing — owner-led and growing.

Growth-stage operators

Consistent revenue, scaling responsibility, and done with DIY systems.

WHY IT WORKS

In construction, everything is connected. Your support should be too.

Most businesses manage their finances, marketing, and people through separate vendors who never talk. That gap is where decisions go wrong. Our integrated model closes it.

01
Know which jobs make money

Job-level profitability tracking, not just revenue totals — so pricing and growth decisions are based on real data.

02
Win better work, not just more

Marketing aligned with your capacity and the margins you actually need — not vanity metrics.

03
Build a team that sticks

Hire, onboard, and retain people with real systems behind you — not gut feeling and hope.

WHY TWENTY32

Why contractors choose us for their back office.

Most firms try to fit construction into their generic templates. We've structured Twenty32 around the realities of how trades businesses actually run.

We speak construction

Holdbacks, progress billing, job costing, subcontractors, change orders — these aren't foreign concepts. They're baked into how we work.

Compliance you can rely on

From GST/HST to employment standards to safety policy, we keep your business aligned with Canadian and provincial requirements.

Built for Canadian trades

Canadian tax context, employment law, and trades market. We know the regional realities of how your business actually operates.

Cost-effective by design

A full back-office team for less than the cost of a single in-house hire — without sacrificing depth, expertise, or accountability.

Scalable as you grow

From solo contractor to multi-crew operation — our level of support scales with your business without forcing you into rigid packages.

One team, three functions

Books, people, and growth — coordinated under one team that understands your whole business. Not three vendors who never talk.

  • No. Many clients start with financial support and expand into marketing or HR as their business grows. Services are designed to work together — but are not mandatory as a bundle.

  • Absolutely. One of our core focuses is helping construction businesses see job-level profitability clearly so pricing and growth decisions are based on real data.

  • Yes. We work with both owner-operators and growing teams with employees and subcontractors.

  • Pricing depends on complexity and level of support. Most construction clients invest between $1,000 and $5,000+ per month, depending on job volume, crew size, and services required.

  • Our services are best suited for companies who are past the startup phase and ready to build real infrastructure. This typically means consistent revenue, growing responsibility, and a desire to move away from reactive decision-making.

    If you’re earning approximately $250k+ annually and feel like your business has outgrown DIY systems, Twenty32 is designed to support your next stage of growth.

  • Many business end up managing multiple vendors who don’t talk to each other — a bookkeeper focused only on accuracy, a marketer focused only on growth, and ad-hoc HR support when something breaks.

    At Twenty32, our services are designed to work together. Financial insights inform marketing decisions, marketing growth aligns with cash flow and capacity, and people decisions are made with clarity around sustainability. This integrated approach reduces overwhelm and leads to better long-term outcomes.
