Tax Structure Overview

As an LLC, your Colorado construction business has options for how it's taxed. By default, it's taxed as a pass-through entity, meaning profits are passed through to your personal income and taxed at your individual rate. You can also elect to be taxed as an S-Corp or C-Corp, each with its own implications. For more details, see our guide on setting up your Colorado LLC. S-Corp election might help reduce self-employment taxes, while C-Corp status involves corporate income tax plus individual income tax on dividends. Choosing the right structure depends on your specific circumstances and should be discussed with a tax professional.
