The problems we take off your plate
Service calls and project work, mixed together
Emergency calls and multi-day projects hit the books differently. We separate service revenue from project work so you can see what each actually earns.
HST on every parts run
The HST you pay on parts and fixtures is an input tax credit. We capture it on every purchase so nothing you're owed slips through.
Apprentice and journeyman payroll
Payroll runs on time with source deductions remitted to CRA, T4s ready at year-end, and records kept WSIB-ready.
Trucks and tools at year-end
Vehicles and equipment are claimed over time through capital cost allowance, with the business-use portion documented by your accountant.

Can you track job costing for my projects?
Yes. We keep revenue and costs organized by job so you can see margin per project, not just a lump sum at year-end.
How do you handle my work trucks?
