Bookkeeping and Tax Services for Newport Beach
Newport Beach has no shortage of accounting firms. But most of them are built around wealth management, investment advisory, and serving high-net-worth individuals along the coast. If you’re a contractor, plumber, or landscaper working in Newport Beach, those firms aren’t really set up for you. We are. We provide contractor bookkeeping and tax services for the trades businesses that build and maintain this city.
We’re based in Long Beach, about 20 minutes up the coast. Everything runs through cloud-based accounting software, so your location doesn’t slow anything down. You get monthly financials, properly categorized expenses, and books that are ready for tax time without the overhead of a Newport Beach office address.

Newport Beach Businesses We Work With
Newport Beach is one of the most desirable residential markets in Southern California. That means constant demand for construction, remodeling, and property work. The businesses doing this work are often running crews across multiple job sites, pulling permits, buying materials, and managing cash flow on projects that stretch for months.
Those businesses need more than a once-a-year tax filing. They need books that track job costs, separate materials from labor, and give a clear picture of profitability on every project. That’s what we do.

Frequently Asked Questions
You're based in Long Beach. Why would a Newport Beach contractor work with you?
We're about 20 minutes up PCH. But most of our work happens digitally through cloud accounting software, email, and phone calls. Location matters less than whether your bookkeeper actually understands construction and trades businesses. Most firms in Newport Beach are built around wealth management and high-net-worth clients, not helping a plumber or GC get their books straight.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Starting at $200 per month based on your total monthly expenses. We quote an exact price after looking at your business so there are no surprises.
Do you handle both bookkeeping and taxes?
Yes. We maintain your books every month and prepare your business and personal tax returns. Having the same firm handle both means nothing falls through the cracks at year-end. Your books are already clean when tax season arrives.
My books are months behind. Can you catch me up?
Yes. Most contractors we work with come to us with months or years of untouched books. We reconstruct everything, bring it current, and move into monthly bookkeeping from there.
Can you help me figure out if I should buy a truck or equipment?
That's exactly the kind of question we help with. With clean books and an accurate picture of your finances, we can walk through the tax implications and cash flow impact before you commit to a major purchase.
