Testimonials
“We have dealt with 2 fractional CFOs and 4 bookkeepers before we found PHG. PHG came in and did what others couldn’t. We actually know our numbers and have infrastructure in place to make sure our numbers are accurate.”
Sam Allsop
Neil Roofing
“PHG has handled our financial reporting since 2024 and I wish we’d done it sooner. We’re a roofing and exteriors contractor across several Western markets. PHG gives me monthly reporting that actually reflects how the business runs margin by location, by rep, and by job, plus cash, working capital and a forecast. Not just one number at the bottom of a P&L. The commentary is what sets them apart. Shane tells me exactly what’s happening and what to do about it, in plain language. No spin, no filler. Best financial partner we’ve worked with. Highly recommend to any contractor who’s serious about knowing their numbers.”

Ryan McPherson

“I engaged PHG’s Fractional CFO group to organize my financials and data in preparation for a potential sale. Their team expertly positioned my business to maximize its value. When the time was right, PHG’s Buyside M&A Team connected me with an excellent partner and secured a fantastic deal, saving me from paying a sell-side broker fee. PHG provided guidance and support from start to finish, and I would strongly recommend that any strategic-minded business owner consider speaking with them.”
