Your monthly or quarterly IAS & BAS, superannuation, annual TPARs, and portable long-service leave reports are all included in our service so you never have to worry about being late again.
Rescue
If you are behind in your books or compliance, we have a Special Items feature that will get you back up to date with all of your outstanding reports.
BAS

We can even help with asking the ATO to reduce or remove fines.
Our services include all facets of bookkeeping from tracking expenses, creating supplier payment files, quoting, invoicing, chasing money, running payroll, lodging superannuation and single touch payroll (now mandatory), as well as helping you go completely paperless and ensuring you are organised for tax time.
Compliance
Along with Superannuation, single touch payroll and BAS there are several other compliance requirements for the building industry we will help you get right and get in on time. Cut through the red tape with our help and have more time to get lucrative contracts with more profit built in - we help you calculate this too!
Job Costing
Profit is the real reason we are all in business. We'll implement job costing procedures into your accounts to reveal true job profit. We will help you understand your monthly profit and loss reports, identify areas where expenses can be saved, show you how to maximize profit in every job you do and we’ll liaise with your tax accountant as well, making your life easier all around.

NOT CONVINCED? HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS:
Kathi started working with me near the end of 2020 after 2 builders I'd been working with had gone broke after Covid hit the economy hard. My business was suffering badly in trying to recover and the accountant I'd been using was not helping me in any significant way. Kathi jumped straight in, reconciled the mess we'd made of my accounts, set us up in Quickbooks and within a few months helped me go from making a 50K loss to nearly 300K profit. We are now rapidly expanding and making more money than ever now we have job costing in place and several adult apprentices onboard we get rebates for. I cannot recommend her services highly enough, whatever you need Kath finds a way to make it happen for us. Try Tradie Books Australia and Kathi - you will not regret it!

Kathi started working with our company around 6 years ago when we needed an expert in Quickbooks to get our accounts in order. Her expertise in the software has been invaluable over the years in costing, budgeting, cash flow management, management reporting and payroll and superannuation management. We rely heavily on her experience to ensure our compliance is done on time, including the ATO requirements as well as QBCC, QLeave, TPAR and Payroll Tax reporting. We have now grown to a group of 6 companies and Kathi and her team provide professional, timely and accurate services for our bookkeeping, BAS, payroll and other management accounting needs. Our Tax Accountant told us she'd never seen such a clean set of accounts so she saved us money there too! Try Kathi and her team out, you will not be disappointed.
