Trades and Service Businesses in Laguna Woods
Laguna Woods is a residential community, and residential communities need people to take care of them. That means steady demand for landscapers, pool service companies, cleaning crews, property maintenance teams, and every kind of contractor and tradesperson. These are the businesses we work with as a CPA firm for construction and trade businesses.
Most of the owners we talk to in this area are good at their trade but short on time for the financial side. They’re running crews, handling customer calls, and bidding new work. The books get pushed to the bottom of the list until tax season forces the issue. We take that problem off the table so you can focus on the work that actually brings in revenue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have an office in Laguna Woods?
No. We're based in Long Beach and work remotely with clients across South Orange County. Most of our clients prefer it that way because there's nothing to schedule and no drive across town. If you want to meet in person, we can arrange that too.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Monthly bookkeeping starts at $200. Your price depends on your transaction volume and the complexity of your books. We quote a flat monthly rate after reviewing your situation so there are no surprises on the bill.
Can you help if my books are a few years behind?
Yes. We do catch-up work regularly. Whether you're six months or three years behind, we clean everything up and get you current before moving to monthly service. Most of our clients started out behind.
Do you handle both my business and personal taxes?
Yes. We prepare business and personal returns. Handling both means we can coordinate everything and make sure nothing falls through the cracks between your company and your personal filing.
What accounting software do you use?
QuickBooks Online. If you're not on it yet, we'll set it up and configure it for your business. If you're already using it, we'll review the setup and clean up anything that needs fixing.
