Built for the Businesses That Build the Okanagan.
Most accountants treat a trades business like any other small business. It isn't. Contractors, landscapers, excavators, framers, roofers, and builders operate under a different set of rules - from T5018 subcontractor reporting to job costing, CCA on heavy equipment, and subcontractor classification risk. We understand those rules because we've built our practice around them. Murtagh & Co. serves trades and construction businesses across the Okanagan Valley with accounting, tax, and CFO advisory services that speak your language.
ACCOUNTING
What We Handle for Trades Businesses
Job costing, bank reconciliations, financial statements, GST/HST filings, and payroll. Tracked by project so you always know which jobs are making money and which aren't.
TAX
Personal and corporate tax returns filed accurately and on time. Owner compensation planning, CCA claims on vehicles and equipment, and T5018 subcontractor slips filed before the February 28 deadline.
SUBCONTRACTOR COMPLIANCE
T5018 reporting, subcontractor vs. employee classification review, and CRA compliance. So you're not caught off guard during an audit.
CFO ADVISORY
Cash flow management, financial risk assessment, and business advisory for trades businesses planning to grow, finance equipment, or structure their operations more efficiently.
You built your business with your hands. We'll make sure the numbers back it up.
