Financial Clean-Up & Books Health Check

Bookkeeping cleanup that fixes the messy books underneath your business, so your numbers finally tell the truth.

What Is Bookkeeping Cleanup?

Bookkeeping cleanup is the work of fixing and catching up records that have fallen out of order: unreconciled accounts, miscategorized transactions, a bloated chart of accounts, and months of backlog. It is different from ongoing bookkeeping, because first we have to repair the foundation.

Bad books do not just look messy. They hide the answers you need, inflate your tax stress, and make every decision feel like a guess. So I clean up the history and rebuild the structure underneath it, until your financials finally tell you the truth about the business.

Signs You Need a Bookkeeping Cleanup

• Your accounts have not been reconciled in 60 days or more.
• Your reports look off, or they simply do not make sense.
• A backlog of uncategorized transactions keeps growing.
• Your tax preparer has asked you to fix the books first.
• You are heading into a loan, a raise, or a sale.
• A bookkeeper left, and no one has owned the books since.

What You Get

• A full books health check that grades where you stand today.
• A rebuilt chart of accounts designed for how you actually run.
• Catch-up bookkeeping to clear the backlog.
• Reconciled bank and credit card accounts, cleaned to the penny.
• Corrected categorization, so your reports finally mean something.
• A short plan to keep the books clean going forward.

How It Works

1. First, I run a health check and show you exactly what is off.
2. Then I clean up the history and rebuild the structure underneath.
3. Finally, I hand you accurate books, plus a simple plan to keep them clean long after the bookkeeping cleanup is done.

The Outcome

Your books finally answer the questions you are asking them, and tax time stops being a scramble.
