Bookkeeping support for Ontario construction businesses, including monthly close, selected HST and payroll administration, and basic holdback and subcontractor-payment tracking.
I provide basic bookkeeping tracking of construction holdbacks using contracts, invoices, and release information supplied or approved by the client. Moyano & Co. does not determine lien rights, legal entitlement, or statutory release dates.
Moyano & Co. works exclusively with trades and construction businesses in Barrie and Ontario. I built my practice around the specific financial structure of construction, from owner-operators who do their own sub work to mid-size GCs managing six-figure project budgets and a full subcontractor roster.
You get clean, accurate books every month, plus a bookkeeper who actually understands what you're looking at when you read your financial statements.

Yes. I work with every level of the construction payment chain: GCs managing multiple subs and holdbacks in both directions, electricians and plumbers working as subtrades to GCs, and owner-operators who sometimes act as their own GC. The bookkeeping needs are different at each level and I tailor my setup accordingly.
Yes. I'm 100% cloud-based in QuickBooks Online and Xero, with no drop-off appointments and no in-person requirements. I primarily serve Barrie and Simcoe County, but I work with construction businesses throughout Ontario. The Ontario Construction Act, CRA T5018 rules, and HST requirements are province-wide obligations, and that's exactly where my expertise applies.
