Bookkeeping and Tax Services for Grafton Small Businesses

Bookkeeping, payroll, and tax for Grafton businesses. Serving local professional services, home services, and restaurants from our Fitchburg office.

Bookkeeping for Grafton Businesses

Grafton has grown into a solid small-business town. Professional service firms, home service companies, restaurants along Main Street. The kind of businesses where the owner handles too much and the books slip when something more pressing comes up. That’s who we work with.

We’re based in Fitchburg, about 25 minutes up Route 140. We provide small business bookkeeping services for Grafton businesses that need accurate books without hiring someone full-time. Monthly bookkeeping, payroll, tax prep, and catch-up work when things have gotten behind.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, books closed every month. Financial statements delivered so you know where the business actually stands without spending your weekends in QuickBooks.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Behind on your books? We clean up months or years of backlog and get you current. Most new clients start here before moving to ongoing monthly service.

Payroll

We run payroll, handle tax deposits and filings, and produce year-end W-2s. Your team gets paid on time and you stop worrying about whether you calculated withholdings correctly.

Tax Prep and Planning

As a CPA and Enrolled Agent, Simona handles your personal return and builds tax strategy throughout the year so you keep more of what you earn. Bookkeeping and tax in one place.

Grafton Businesses We Work With

Grafton isn’t Worcester, but it’s not just a bedroom community either. There’s real commerce happening here, from the shops and restaurants downtown to the service businesses working throughout southeastern Worcester County.

We work with owner-operated businesses doing the kind of revenue where professional bookkeeping makes sense but a full-time hire doesn’t. Clean books, clear numbers, and a CPA who understands what it takes to run a small business in a town like this.

Professional Services

Consultants, architects, engineers, financial advisors. Your books need to match the professionalism of your work. We keep them that way and handle the tax planning that high-earning professionals benefit from.

Home and Property Services

Landscapers, roofers, pest control, pool services. Seasonal revenue swings, equipment costs, subcontractor payments. We track it all and handle the 1099s at year end.

Restaurants

Grafton has good restaurants. Thin margins, high transaction volume, tip tracking, sales tax. We handle the bookkeeping complexity so you can focus on the food and the customers.

Salons and Service Businesses

Hair salons, barbershops, spas, fitness studios. Worker classification questions, tips, retail product sales. We keep the numbers straight and the payroll taxes handled correctly.

Common Questions

Do you work with businesses in Grafton?

Yes. We serve businesses throughout Grafton and the surrounding Worcester County area. We're based in Fitchburg, about 25 minutes north, and work remotely with all clients.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting at $199 per month based on your transaction volume. We quote flat monthly rates so you know what to expect.

Do you handle taxes too?

Yes. Simona is a CPA and Enrolled Agent, so bookkeeping and tax preparation happen in the same place. No handing things off to another firm at year end.

Can you help if my books are behind?

That's how most clients start. We do the catch-up work to get things current, then move to monthly service from there.

How does working remotely work?

You connect your bank feeds and upload receipts through a secure portal. We handle everything else online. Most Grafton clients prefer it because there's no scheduling meetings or driving anywhere.
