Bookkeeping & Payroll for Defiance Businesses

Bookkeeping and payroll for Defiance small businesses. Monthly records, catch-up work, and tax-ready financials at flat monthly rates.

Bookkeeping Services for Defiance

We provide bookkeeping and payroll services for small businesses in Defiance. Monthly transaction tracking, bank reconciliation, financial statements, and the ongoing accounting work that keeps your records accurate and tax-ready throughout the year.

Defiance has been a working town since the rivers brought industry here. Today that means manufacturers, contractors, logistics companies, and the businesses that support them. We handle the books so you can focus on operations instead of spending evenings reconciling accounts.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Monthly bookkeeping that keeps your records current. Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, P&L and balance sheet delivered every month without you touching QuickBooks.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Books that are months or years behind? We clean up the backlog, fix errors, and get you current. Most clients come to us with books that need work before we can start regular service.

Payroll Processing

Full payroll service including direct deposits, tax withholdings, quarterly filings, and year-end W-2s. Your employees get paid correctly and on time while you stop worrying about payroll deadlines.

Bill Pay and Receivables

We manage vendor payments and customer invoicing so cash keeps moving. Bills paid on time, invoices sent promptly, and someone following up on past-due accounts so you don’t have to.

Defiance Businesses We Work With

Defiance sits where the Maumee and Auglaize rivers meet, and that location shaped the kind of businesses that grew here. Manufacturers, trades contractors, transportation companies, and agricultural operations. These are the businesses we work with as a Northwest Ohio bookkeeping service.

If you’ve outgrown doing your own books but aren’t ready to hire a full-time bookkeeper, that’s exactly the situation we’re set up for. You get professional financial management without the overhead of an employee.

Manufacturing and Fabrication

Manufacturing bookkeeping that tracks what actually matters. Inventory, cost of goods sold, job costing, and the financial reporting you need to understand margins and make pricing decisions.

Construction and Trades

General contractors, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other trades working in Defiance and across Northwest Ohio. We handle job costing and progress billing so you can bid accurately and track profitability by project.

Logistics and Transportation

Trucking companies, freight operations, and transportation businesses. Equipment depreciation, fuel tracking, driver payroll, and the financial records you need for compliance and profitability.

Agri-Business

Farm operations, ag suppliers, and agricultural service businesses throughout Defiance County. Seasonal cash flow, equipment costs, and the unique accounting that agriculture requires.
