Bookkeeping Services

We’re a San Diego bookkeeping firm that works with small businesses in and around Camp Pendleton. Monthly bookkeeping, catch-up work, payroll setup, and the financial support you need without adding to your overhead.

The Camp Pendleton area has a mix of contractors, service providers, and small businesses that support the military community. We work remotely with all our clients, which makes bookkeeping straightforward whether you’re on base, in Oceanside, or anywhere else in the region.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, accounts reconciled, and books closed every month. Financial statements delivered on time so you always know where your business stands.

Catch-Up Bookkeeping

Behind on your books? We clean up months or years of backlog and get everything current. Most clients come to us this way. No judgment, just results.

Payroll Setup

We configure your payroll system and train you to run it yourself. Get set up correctly from the start so paychecks go out right and tax filings happen on time.

Job Costing

Construction job costing for contractors working on military or civilian projects. Track costs by job so you know which projects are profitable and can bid accurately.

Businesses We Work With

Camp Pendleton is the largest Marine Corps base on the West Coast. The surrounding area is home to defense contractors, service businesses, and companies run by military families. These businesses have specific needs. Owners often wear too many hats, and the books tend to fall behind when operations get busy.

We work with businesses doing roughly $100K to a few million in annual revenue. Big enough to need professional bookkeeping but not so big that a full-time hire makes sense. That gap is exactly what we fill.

Defense Contractors

Subcontractors and service providers who do work on or around the base. We handle the job costing and financial tracking that government contract work requires.

Professional Services

Consultants, engineers, and professional service firms serving the military and civilian sectors. We track profitability and keep your books ready for contract reviews.

Home Services

Landscaping, pool service, solar installation, and other home services covering base housing and surrounding neighborhoods. We manage the books while you manage the routes.

Military Spouse Businesses

Small businesses and side ventures started by military spouses. Remote bookkeeping that moves with you when orders come through. No need to find a new bookkeeper every few years.

Common Questions

Do you work with businesses on or near Camp Pendleton?

Yes. We work with businesses throughout the Camp Pendleton area and greater San Diego County. Everything is handled remotely, so your specific location on or near the base doesn't matter.

What does monthly bookkeeping cost?

Starting at $249 per month. Your actual price depends on transaction volume and complexity. We provide a flat monthly rate after reviewing your business so there are no surprises.

Can you work with military spouse-owned businesses?

Absolutely. We work with many spouse-owned businesses in the San Diego area. Remote bookkeeping works well for military families since our service follows you if you PCS.

Do you understand government contract accounting?

Yes. We work with contractors and subcontractors who do work for military installations. We handle job costing and keep records organized for contract compliance.

How quickly can you get started?

Usually within a week. If your books need cleanup first, we handle the catch-up work before moving to monthly service. If things are already in decent shape, we start right away.
