Bookkeeping for Restaurants & Food Service — you run the kitchen, we track the money

Restaurants have the thinnest margins in small business — food cost, labour, and cash are in a fight every shift. Book Guardian keeps your restaurant books current, tip-and-payroll-aware, and sales-tax-ready at a flat price — so you can stop doing the back-office at 2am and get back to running the floor. You approve every dollar; your accountant stays for the tax return.

Construction bookkeeping is its own beast. It kills more shops than bad workmanship.

Materials on credit, subs to pay on schedule, retainage sitting in the receivables, change orders that never got coded, GST/QST or sales tax that has to be exact. Generic bookkeeping drops the ball here. We build the books around the job — materials, labour, subs, and equipment tagged to the project they belong to — so you can see which jobs carry the business and which ones quietly lose it.

Does this sound like you? The signs are clear.

You can't say what food cost really isagainst what you actually sold.
Sales-tax/PST filings are a scrambleand you're never sure the number is right.
Tips, payouts & payroll don't tieto the shifts and cash at the door.
Inventory walk-throughs don't matchthe books — shrink and waste disappear.
Vendor invoices pile upand you're not sure you're even billed right.
Your bookkeeper or officeis buried under it and it's still behind.

If two or more are true, the fix isn't a busier office manager — it's a job-costed system that runs itself, flat monthly, without a payroll line.

How it works. Hands-free, job-costed, CPA-grade.
