About Us
Built from real small-business experience.
Deck & Ledger started with helping a family business stay organized — handling bookkeeping, accounting support, and tax-related preparation while seeing firsthand how hard it can be for business owners to keep up with the financial side of running a company.
That experience grew into broader bookkeeping and financial operations work focused on organized records, practical systems, and clear communication.

Common questions before getting started.
What if my books are behind?
That is what catch-up bookkeeping is for. We review the situation first, then quote the cleanup based on how far behind the records are.
Do I need bookkeeping every month?
Not always. Some businesses need monthly support, while others only need cleanup or year-end preparation. It depends on volume and complexity.
Do you work with contractors?
Yes. Contractors, trades, service businesses, and owner-operators are the main focus.
Do you prepare taxes?
Deck & Ledger focuses on bookkeeping, HST support, and accountant-ready financial records. Corporate tax filing is not included by default.
Can you help with HST?
Yes. We help keep HST-related records organized and filing-ready. Messy books may need cleanup first.
What software do you support?
QuickBooks Online, Excel-based records, and existing bookkeeping systems can be reviewed depending on your setup.
