Maximize Your Construction Tax Returns

As a construction contractor or small company, you may take on numerous projects, such as custom homes, chimney building, irrigation system installation and site preparation. Tax credits help you reduce the amount of money owed in taxes. It’s best to consult with tax professionals to fully understand the opportunities offered by national and state governments. Our team identifies advanced strategies to reduce your tax bill. 

Individual states also contribute various incentives that may apply to construction businesses, including for actions like:

  • Installing solar systems on new constructions
  • Revitalizing downtown areas
  • Training an apprentice
  • Preserving historic properties

As a construction company, you may qualify for various federal credits, including:

  • Fuel Tax Credit (FTC): If you operate off-highway machinery for business use, you can subtract from your taxes for that equipment. Equipment like skid steers and excavators is used to prepare construction sites.
  • Rehabilitation credit: Renovating historic buildings qualifies you for an incentive that covers 20% of qualified expenses you incur during the process.
  • Low-income housing tax credit: You may get this perk if you build or rehabilitate rental housing for low-income households. This incentive encourages builders to create affordable housing.
  • Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC): Your construction business may qualify for a reduction if you employ those from groups who have previously faced employment barriers. These individuals include certain veterans, ex-felons and people who have faced long-term unemployment.
