Industries We Serve
Last reviewed: August 2026
Four ways in. Three industries we have gone deeper on than the rest, and a hub for incorporated owner-managed corporations generally, which is most of what we do.
A general practice accountant can file anyone's T2, but the money in small business accounting is not in the return. It is in knowing that an electrician's service van avoids the passenger vehicle cap, that a registered massage therapist charges HST while the physiotherapist beside them does not, and that a med spa gift card is not revenue when sold. Those are different bodies of knowledge, and keeping them current takes real work.
Who we work with
Pick the one that fits
Each has its own body of rules, its own filing obligations and its own way of quietly losing money. The fourth covers everything the first three do not.
Contractors and trades
Electricians, plumbers, HVAC, renovation, cleaning and general contractors. T5018 slips, statutory holdbacks, HST timing on progress billings and substantial completion, work in progress, WSIB coverage that catches owners who assume they are exempt, and the subcontractor versus employee test.
Accounting for contractors and tradesHealth and wellness clinics
Physiotherapy, chiropractic, massage therapy, mental health and multi-disciplinary clinics. Which services are exempt and which are taxable, the fact that exempt revenue blocks input tax credit recovery on rent and equipment, apportionment in mixed clinics, and associate contracts.
Accounting for clinicsMed spas and cosmetic clinics
Injectors, nurse practitioners and physician-owned cosmetic practices. The cosmetic versus medical HST line and the input tax credit apportionment behind it, gift cards, prepaid treatment packages, POS and booking platform reconciliation, and paying associates correctly.
Accounting for med spasOwner-managed corporations
Consultants, marketing agencies, photographers and studios, e-commerce, professional services, transport, wholesale and holding companies. Salary versus dividends, the shareholder loan, family payroll and instalments.
Accounting for owner-managed corporationsEveryone else
General owner-managed corporations
Consultants, marketing agencies, photographers and studios, e-commerce, professional services, transport, wholesale and holding companies. Salary versus dividends, the shareholder loan, and the T2 and the family's T1s prepared together so the numbers match.
This is the largest part of the practice and it has its own hub, because the questions an owner-manager asks are the same whatever the business sells.
Common ground
What every client gets, whatever the industry
- Corporate tax (T2) and the owner's personal tax (T1) prepared by the same firm
- GST/HST prepared with the rules that actually apply to your industry
- QuickBooks Online bookkeeping, reconciled and closed monthly or quarterly
- Payroll, T4 and T5
- Fixed fees quoted up front, before the work starts
- A conversation before year end rather than after it
