The real problem
You work hard all season. The money still feels like a mystery.
You quote jobs, run crews, fix equipment, and answer calls after dark. The work gets done. But when someone asks whether the business is actually making money, the honest answer is: you’re not sure.
Then tax season lands. An accountant you haven’t heard from since last spring sends a bill you didn’t see coming. Nobody explains it. You pay it, get back to work, and the same thing happens next year.
It doesn’t have to run that way.
What we do
Accounting built for the green industry
Four ways we take the money side of your business off your plate.

The difference
The Quarterly Check-In
It comes with every bookkeeping plan we offer. It’s the reason our clients aren’t on their own until next April.
Every few months we sit down together, by video, and walk through your numbers in plain language. What came in. What went out. What your tax picture looks like right now, while there’s still time to do something about it.
You bring questions. We explain the why and the how until it makes sense. That’s the difference between an accountant who files your paperwork and one who’s in your corner all year — proactive planning instead of year-end surprises.

Which one sounds like your business?
Pick your stage — see exactly how we help.
“I’m ready to make it official — but LLCs, EINs, and tax elections feel like a different language.”
This is the stage where one right decision saves years of cleanup. We help you:
- Set up your LLC or S-Corp correctly from day one
- Open the right accounts and simple systems that grow with you
- Walk into your first tax season with a plan, not a guess
“The work is rolling in, but the books are falling behind — and I’m not sure the jobs I quote actually make money.”
Growth is exactly when the numbers start to matter. We help you:
- Keep clean monthly books you can actually read
- Price jobs with margin, not markup
- Stay ahead of payroll and quarterly estimates
“Busy season runs me. April surprises me. And my accountant only appears once a year.”
You’ve outgrown drop-off-and-pray tax service. We help you:
- File business and personal returns right and on time
- See your tax picture all year with the Quarterly Check-In
- Act before year-end, while there’s still time to change the outcome
“Bigger contracts, more equipment, more on the line — every decision has a tax consequence now.”
At this stage, planning beats reacting. We help you:
- Plan equipment purchases and timing around taxes
- Weigh S-Corp structure when the math is right for you
- Build credit in the business’s name, not yours
We also welcome right-fit clients in construction, roofing, business services, counseling, and content creation. If that’s you, we’d still like to talk.

Questions owners ask us
What does it cost?
Monthly plans start at $350. The exact price depends on how much work your books need and whether you want tax filing and planning included. Our pricing page shows every plan, and we confirm your price before you sign anything.
Is my business too small for this?
We work with landscaping businesses at every stage. Book a call anyway. We will tell you honestly whether now is the right time, and point you in a useful direction either way.
Do you actually know the landscaping business?
It is our main focus. Our clients run lawn care routes, install and irrigation companies, tree services, and hardscape crews. We know how seasonal cash flow works, how equipment purchases affect taxes, and why a busy month can still feel broke.
What does switching from my current accountant involve?
Less than you might think. Once you decide, we request your records, set up your books, and handle the handoff. We do the heavy lifting while you keep running your crews.
Do we ever need to meet in person?
No. Everything happens over the phone and by video, so you never lose half a workday driving to an office.
What is the Quarterly Check-In?
A standing meeting where we walk through your numbers together: what came in, what went out, and what is coming next. You leave knowing where you stand. It comes with every bookkeeping plan.
Ready to know where your business stands?
Thirty minutes, no cost, no obligation — just straight answers about your books, your taxes, and what to do next.
