Contract Balances [Abstract] | |
CONTRACT BALANCES | 4. CONTRACT BALANCES Accounts receivable, which are included in current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $19.4 million at December 31, 2018, a $2.8 million decrease from $22.2 million at September 30, 2018. The decrease was mainly due to timing of billings and receipts. Contract assets, which are included in current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $10.5 million at December 31, 2018, a $5.1 million increase from $5.4 million at September 30, 2018. This was due to an increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted projects. Contract liabilities, which are included in current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, totaled $1.6 million at December 31, 2018, a $1.7 million decrease from $3.3 million at September 30, 2018. This was due to a decrease in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted projects. The Company’s accounts receivable consists of amounts that have been billed to customers. Collateral is generally not required. A majority of the Company’s contracts have monthly billing terms and payment terms within 30 to 45 days after invoices have been issued. The Company attempts to negotiate two-week billing terms and 15-day payment terms on larger projects. The timing of billings to customers may generate contract assets or contract liabilities. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, we recognized revenue of $1.7 million that was included in the contract liability balance at September 30, 2018. Accounts receivable, contract assets and contract liabilities consisted of the following: September 30, 2018 December 31, 2018 Change Accounts receivable-trade $ 22,227,555 $ 19,368,805 $ (2,858,750 ) Contract assets Cost and estimated eanings in excess of billings $ 5,353,375 $ 10,531,124 $ 5,177,749 Contract liabilites Billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings $ 3,261,201 $ 1,556,761 $ (1,704,440 ) |

Performance Obligations [Abstract] | |
PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS | 5. PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS The Company provides construction services that can be classified into several groups: petroleum and gas, water, sewer and other, and electrical and mechanical services. Generally, our contracts contain one performance obligation that is satisfied over time because our performance typically creates or enhances an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced. We recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied and control of the promised good and service is transferred to the customer. Revenue is ordinarily recognized over time as control is transferred to the customers by measuring the progress toward complete satisfaction of the performance obligation(s) using an input (i.e., “cost to cost”) method. Under the cost to cost method, costs incurred to-date are generally the best depiction of transfer of control. All contract costs, including those associated with affirmative claims, change orders and back charges, are recorded as incurred and revisions to estimated total costs are reflected as soon as the obligation to perform is determined. Contract costs consist of direct costs on contracts, including labor and materials, amounts payable to subcontractors, direct overhead costs and equipment expense (primarily depreciation, fuel, maintenance and repairs). The Company’s accounts receivable consists of amounts that have billed to customers. Collateral is generally not required. A majority of the Company’s contracts have monthly billing terms and payment terms within 30 to 45 days after invoices have been issued. The Company attempts to negotiate two-week billing terms and 15-day payment terms on larger projects. The timing of billings to customers may generate contract assets or contract liabilities. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, we recognized revenue of $518,000 as a result of changes in contract transaction price related to performance obligations that were satisfied prior to September 30, 2018. The changes in contract transaction price were from items such as changes in projected profit, executed or estimated change orders, and unresolved contract modifications and claims. The Company does not sell warranties for its construction services. At December 31, 2018, the Company had $18.4 million in remaining unsatisfied performance obligations, in which revenue is expected to be recognized in less than twelve months. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic Under the FASB’s authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Fair Value Measurements Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. As noted above, there is a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows: Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amount for borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility approximates fair value because of the variable market interest rate charged to the Company for these borrowings. The fair value of the Company’s long term fixed-rate debt to unrelated parties was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis and a yield rate that was estimated based on the borrowing rates for bank loans with similar terms and maturities. The fair value of the aggregate principal amount of the Company’s fixed-rate debt of $7.4 million at December 31, 2018 was $7.3 million. The fair value of the aggregate principal amount of the Company’s fixed-rate debt of $12.0 million at December 31, 2017 was $12.0 million. All receivables and payables are carried at net realizable value which approximates fair value because of their short duration to maturity. |

The interest rate on the line of credit is the “Wall Street Journal” Prime Rate (the index) with a floor of 4.99%.

The Company had borrowed $9.5 million against the Operating Line of Credit (2018) as of December 31, 2018 and had $3.0 million available to borrow per the Company’s borrowing base. Major items excluded from the borrowing base calculation are receivables from bonded jobs and retainage as well as all items greater than ninety (90) days old. Line of credit borrowings are collateralized by the Company’s accounts receivable. Cash available under the line is calculated based on 70.0% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. Major items excluded from the calculation are receivables from bonded jobs and retainage as well as items greater than 90 days old. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company must meet the following loan covenants to access the first $12.5 million: 1. Minimum tangible net worth of $17.0 million to be measured quarterly 2. Minimum traditional debt service coverage of 1.50x to be measured quarterly on a rolling twelve- month basis 3. Minimum current ratio of 1.50x to be measured quarterly 4.

Minimum tangible net worth of $19.0 million to be measured quarterly 2. Minimum traditional debt service coverage of 2.0x to be measured quarterly on a rolling twelve-month basis 3.
