Swampscott Businesses We Work With
The North Shore has plenty of contractors, landscapers, and service businesses working on older homes. Swampscott’s housing stock includes properties that have stood for a century or more. That means steady work for businesses that know how to handle renovations, maintenance, and the particular needs of historic neighborhoods.
We work with service businesses doing $50K to a few million in revenue. Big enough to need professional bookkeeping, not big enough to justify hiring someone full-time. That’s the gap we fill.
Contractors

General contractors, remodelers, and specialty trades working on North Shore homes. We track costs by job and phase so you can bid based on real numbers instead of guesses.

My books are months behind. Can you help?
That's how most clients find us. We do catch-up work to get your books current, then move into monthly service so it doesn't happen again.
