The ongoing accounting work that keeps your business organized without you spending your evenings in QuickBooks.

We’re based in Long Beach, just a short drive down the 605 or 91. Everything runs remotely through QuickBooks Online and secure document sharing, so your location in Norwalk doesn’t create any friction. You get a bookkeeper who understands the area and works on your schedule.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Full-service bookkeeping that includes transaction categorization, bank and credit card reconciliation, and monthly financial statements. Your P&L and balance sheet are accurate and ready when you need them.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

If your books are months or even years behind, we work through the backlog and bring everything current. Most business owners who reach out to us are starting from this point. It’s normal and we handle it all the time.

Invoicing and Bill Payment

Accounts receivable and accounts payable managed so invoices go out on time and bills get paid when they should. You stop losing track of what’s owed and what’s due.

Tax-Ready Records

Clean, organized books that your CPA or tax preparer can actually work with. Proper categorization and documentation throughout the year so tax season is a handoff instead of a scramble.

Norwalk Businesses We Work With

Norwalk sits right in the middle of the Gateway Cities with easy freeway access to the rest of LA County. That location means a concentration of contractors, service companies, food businesses, and retail operations. Many of these are owner-operated businesses where the person running things is also the one trying to keep the books together on weekends. That approach works for a little while and then it doesn’t.

We work with businesses that have outgrown the DIY stage but don’t need a full-time accountant on staff. Typically $50K to a few million in annual revenue. If your financial records have turned into a source of stress instead of useful information, that’s exactly the situation we’re set up to fix.

Contractors and Trades

General contractors, electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs working residential and commercial jobs across Norwalk and the surrounding cities. We handle contractor bookkeeping that tracks costs by project so you know which jobs are profitable and which ones aren’t.

Restaurants and Food Businesses

Sit-down restaurants, taquerias, cafes, catering operations, and food trucks along Firestone and Rosecrans. Tight margins require accurate numbers. We track food costs, labor, and daily sales so you can see what’s actually working.

Home and Property Services

Landscapers, cleaning companies, pest control, pool services, and property maintenance. Businesses with crews in the field and a steady volume of transactions that need consistent categorization and reporting every month.

Retail and Service Businesses

Shops along Norwalk Blvd and Pioneer, salons, auto-related businesses, and professional services. We track inventory where needed, manage the books, and keep your records clean so financial decisions are based on real numbers.

Common Questions

You're in Long Beach. Why would a Norwalk business work with you?

Norwalk and Long Beach are about 15 minutes apart, but most of the work happens remotely anyway. Bank feeds, document sharing, and monthly reporting all happen through QuickBooks Online and secure file sharing. We're nearby if you want to meet, but distance doesn't affect the quality of the work.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting at $199 per month depending on your average monthly expenses and transaction volume. We'll give you an exact quote after learning about your business.

My books haven't been touched in months. Can you help?

Yes. Catch-up bookkeeping is a regular part of what we do. We'll work through the backlog, get everything current, and then move into ongoing monthly service so it stays that way.

What accounting software do you use?

QuickBooks Online. It keeps everything in one place, makes collaboration simple, and gives you access to your financials whenever you need them. If you're not on QBO yet, we can set it up and walk you through it.

How quickly can we get started?

Usually within a week. If your books need cleanup first, that starts right away. If things are already in reasonable shape, we move straight into monthly bookkeeping.
