Curious whether your numbers are telling the truth?
Our Free QuickBooks Diagnostic Review shows exactly where you stand.
Our Free QuickBooks Diagnostic Review uncovers what’s accurate, what’s drifting, and what’s holding your books back so
so you finally know the full story of your finances.
No generic pricing tables. Every cleanup is different, and you’ll receive a fixed, transparent quote after your review—no surprises, no obligation.
Hiring a bookkeeper doesn’t ensure clean books. They are paid to maintain your books, not diagnose or clean them.
Most books look “fine” on the surface. Our diagnostic shows whether they really are — uncovering errors that pile up quietly over time, and confirming if your chart of accounts is built to last.
We restore trust in your numbers.
For established businesses, the review highlights the issues holding your books back so we can clean and correct them. For new business owners, it’s your chance to set up a chart of accounts that prevents costly problems later.
We do one thing, and we do it exceptionally well: fixing broken books and setting up QuickBooks the right way from the start.
When your books are spotless, you move forward on solid ground. If you already have a bookkeeper or CPA you trust, they’ll inherit a file that’s clean, accurate, and ready. If not, we’ll connect you with top-tier professionals from our network.
Our promise? Less stress, cleaner numbers, and year-end confidence — every time.

Monthly bookkeeping keeps things moving, but it doesn’t undo years of drift or a chart of accounts built wrong from the start.
Small errors pile up quietly until the numbers stop reflecting reality.
That’s where I come in: I rebuild the foundation so your books tell the truth.
For established businesses, that means untangling what’s off so decisions rest on solid ground.
For new owners, it means setting up your chart of accounts correctly from day one—avoiding costly cleanups later.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a cleanup?
You don’t always know when your books need a cleanup. What looks “fine” on the surface can hide errors, broken feeds, or unreconciled balances. Our Free Diagnostic Review confirms what’s true, what’s drifting, and what needs correction—so you’re never left wondering.
My bookkeeper already maintains my QuickBooks — why would I need a cleanup?
Monthly bookkeeping records what’s happening now. But if your QuickBooks was ever set up incorrectly, accounts misclassified, or balances left unreconciled, those issues carry forward. Cleanup goes back and corrects history, so your current bookkeeping rests on a solid foundation.
Even the best bookkeeper can’t fix the past without a dedicated cleanup—and your CPA will thank you. With a clean file, they won’t have to guess where numbers belong on tax forms, and you won’t risk costly errors or extra prep fees.
I’m a new business — do I need this?
Think of setup as laying the foundation. If your QuickBooks is structured right from the start, you won’t face rework, confusion, or cleanup costs down the road. You get decision-ready reports from day one and a system that scales with you.
What is a QuickBooks cleanup?
A QuickBooks cleanup is a structural reset of your file. It means fixing errors, reclassifying transactions, reconciling accounts, and aligning your chart so reports reflect reality. Crucially, it also goes back into prior years to correct the issues that snowball forward—so your numbers are not only clean today, but reliable across your history. The result: books that are clear, compliant, and audit-ready.
How long will it take?
It depends on volume and complexity. Some cleanups finish in days; complex histories can take weeks or months. After your free diagnostic you’ll get a specific scope, timeline, and start date.
How much does a cleanup cost?
Every file is different, so we don’t publish one-size-fits-all pricing. You’ll receive a fixed quote after the diagnostic—no surprises, no hidden costs, no obligation to proceed.
Is it better to fix things now or later?
Sooner is cheaper. Early corrections prevent compounding errors, reduce tax risk, and protect decision-making. For new owners, correct setup now is the most cost-effective path.
Will my data be safe?
Yes. We back up the file before changes and follow secure, documented procedures throughout the engagement.
