What we do

Forty-three years of bookkeeping, tax, and answers

Sole proprietors, small corporations, freelancers, retirees, families — we've worked with all of them. Pick what you need below or call to talk it through.

Personal Income Tax

T1 returns prepared, filed and explained. Slips, deductions, credits — all handled correctly the first time.

Corporate Income Tax

T2 corporate returns for incorporated small businesses. Full-cycle filings with year-end accounting included.

Sole Proprietor Returns

T2125 statements for self-employed and freelance income — trades, side hustles, contractors all welcome.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Monthly transaction processing, account reconciliation, and clean books ready for year-end. Quarterly available too.

Quarterly Accounting

If monthly is more than you need, quarterly reviews keep you on top of HST and your business numbers.

Payroll

Payroll runs, source deductions, ROEs and year-end T4s for small teams.

HST Preparation & Remittance

HST tracking, filings and CRA remittances — never miss a deadline again.

Year-Round CRA Help

Open twelve months a year. Got a CRA letter you don't understand? Bring it in — we'll read it and respond.

Want to know what it'll cost first?

Call Dan. Tell him what you've got. He'll give you a fair number before we start.
