Accounting for landscapers in Ontario
Landscaping is seasonal, with a summer rush, winter slowdown, and often a pivot to snow removal. Managing cash flow across the seasons and a fluctuating crew is the real challenge.

The problems we take off your plate
Cash flow that swings with the seasons
A summer rush and a winter lull make cash flow lumpy. We keep the books current year-round so tax is set aside in the busy months, not scrambled for in the slow ones.
Snow removal and other seasonal lines
Plowing, salting, and off-season work are tracked as separate revenue streams so you can see what each actually earns.
Mowers, trucks, and equipment
Equipment is claimed over time through capital cost allowance, with the business-use portion documented by your accountant.

Common questions
Can you handle my seasonal crew?
Yes. Payroll scales up and down with your season, with source deductions remitted to CRA on time either way.
What about snow-removal income in winter?
It's all one set of books. Seasonal revenue streams are tracked separately so you can see what each line of work earns.
