Most contractors don’t overpay taxes because they make too much…They overpay because they miss deductions they’re legally allowed to claim.

Here are 10 big ones to double-check in your business:

Truck & Vehicle Costs 🚚 (mileage or actual expenses)

Tools + Equipment + Machinery 🔧 (plus repairs & maintenance)

Office/Admin Expenses 🧾 (software, supplies, job apps, phone chargers)

Marketing & Advertising 📣 (website, Google ads, truck wraps, shirts)

Labor Costs 👷 (subs, W-2 wages, crews — classification matters)

Business Insurance 🛡️ (GL, workers comp, commercial auto, umbrella)

Rent + Yard/Storage Space 🏗️ (shop, warehouse, storage unit)

Home Office 🏠 (must be used regularly + exclusively for business)

Meals + Travel for Business 🍔✈️ (keep receipts + document purpose)

Startup + Professional Fees 📊 (CPA, bookkeeping, legal, consulting)

🟣 Bonus: Retirement contributions, training, permits/licenses, loan interest.
