Behind on your books? Let's get them straight and keep them that way.
Months of untouched transactions, a folder of receipts, a spreadsheet that stopped making sense in March. I clear the backlog, reconcile it properly, and show you in plain English where the money actually went — then set up something simple enough that it does not slide again.
A paid look at three months of transactions, before you commit to anything larger.
You probably recognise at least one of these
The deadline is closer than the books are
Records are months behind and the gap is growing faster than you can close it in evenings.
Someone keeps asking for things you cannot find
You are being chased for figures that would take a weekend to reconstruct, and you are not sure they would be right.
The numbers do not feel real
Sales look fine but the bank balance disagrees, and you cannot say precisely where the difference went.
What working with me is like
No judgement about the state of it — genuinely. Records arriving as a carrier bag of receipts and a bank export is the normal starting point, not the worst case.
You get a fixed price before I start, so the bill does not grow with the mess. You get told plainly what is wrong and what it will take to fix. And you get an exceptions list rather than invented entries: if I cannot tell what a payment was for, I ask you rather than quietly coding it to something plausible.
What I will not do is bury you in terminology. If a summary needs a glossary to read, I have written it badly.
Sectors I work with most
- Hospitality — restaurants, cafes and takeaways, including delivery platform commission and food cost reconciliation
- Trades — plumbers, electricians, builders and contractors, including job-level costing and CIS deductions on the ledger
- E-commerce — platform settlements, payment processor fees, refunds and the gap between gross sales and what actually lands
- Services — salons, gyms, trainers, cleaners, childcare and letting agents
If you are none of those, the work is much the same. The sector mostly changes where the leaks hide.

Prices are starting points for straightforward cases. You get a fixed quote after I have seen the records — not an hourly rate that grows with the mess.
Send me three months and see
A bank export and a couple of sentences about the business is enough to start. If I do not think I can help, I will tell you that instead of selling you something.
