Helen DeVries - Bookkeeping Business Coach & Mentor

About Us

At Roof For Profit, I help bookkeepers develop the skills, confidence, and financial knowledge to become a high-value asset to the roofing companies they serve.

I bring more than 30 years of experience in bookkeeping, accounting, QuickBooks, and the roofing industry. I understand what happens behind the numbers—from job costing and financial reporting to cash flow, cleanups, and the day-to-day challenges of keeping a roofing company's books accurate.

I also understand what it's like to be the bookkeeper carrying the responsibility for those numbers.

Roofing companies have access to training and coaching for sales, production, and business growth, but the person responsible for the financial side of the company often has very little support. Bookkeepers are expected to have the answers, even as the company grows and the accounting becomes more complex.

That's the gap I want to help fill.

Through my training, coaching, and mentorship programs, I support bookkeepers at different stages of their careers—from those learning roofing bookkeeping to experienced bookkeepers serving larger roofing companies and building six-figure bookkeeping businesses.

My goal isn't simply to teach someone how to enter transactions. It's to help bookkeepers understand the financial story behind the numbers, strengthen their professional judgment, improve their job-costing skills, and become a trusted financial resource to the roofing companies they serve.

Because even a great bookkeeper shouldn't have to figure everything out alone.

How We Got Started

I began this journey in 1983 while helping operate a roofing business and learning firsthand what it really takes to run a company behind the scenes. Like many business owners, we faced real struggles—cash flow pressure, pricing mistakes, financial stress, and learning systems the hard way.

Over the years, we worked through those challenges, improved our numbers, increased profitability, and built a stronger business through better habits, clearer systems, and smarter decisions.

Today, I share those lessons with business owners, contractors, and bookkeepers who want to grow without spending decades learning by trial and error. I teach practical tips, proven processes, and good business practices you can begin using right away.

My goal is to help you reduce stress, increase profits, improve your take-home pay, and create more freedom in both your business and personal life.

Because business should support your life—not consume it.
