Bookkeeping services in Ottawa.

Ottawa’s independent restaurants, shops and service businesses keep the city running between the government offices. We set up your accounting system and run it, so you can send an invoice or file a receipt from your phone and get on with the day.

Local, without the local price tag

A restaurant in the ByWard Market, a shop in the Glebe, a trades business out in Kanata or Barrhaven — each has its own rhythm of sales and suppliers. We build the books around yours, set HST at 13%, and keep the originals attached so nothing’s a scramble at year-end.

It’s the whole department — invoices, bills, payroll, HST, receipts and reports — set up around your business and run for one fixed monthly price. You use it from a chat you already have. See what’s included or the price.

By the way you work

We set the books up around your trade, not a generic template:

Cafés

A café runs on small margins and a hundred little transactions a day.

Restaurants

Restaurants have more moving parts than almost any small business — high volume, thin margins, and a lot of suppliers.

Retail & online

Whether you sell from a storefront, a Shopify store, or both, the books have to keep up with sales, stock and cost of goods.

Trades

On the tools all day, the paperwork waits until the evening — or the weekend, or tax time.

Salons

A salon mixes service income, retail product, tips and a team that might be staff or chair renters.

Consultants

When you’re the business, bookkeeping is the thing that slips first.

Areas we serve

Kanata, Nepean, Orléans, Barrhaven, Gatineau (ON-side clients) — and the rest of the province. We work remotely across Ontario; see Toronto, Mississauga, Hamilton, London, the Durham Region.

Questions

01

Do you work with Ottawa businesses remotely?

Yes — everything is done over video and chat, so distance doesn’t matter. Your books live in a system you can access and export any time.

02

Can my accountant in Ottawa still do my taxes?

Absolutely. We set the books up with your accountant’s needs in mind and give them a login and a clean year-end package.

Let’s set up your books.

Forty-five minutes, a plan and a price. No payment until we’ve agreed the scope, and we reply — usually the same day.
