What you get
The monthly rhythm
Our monthly bookkeeping runs the same for a Windsor machining shop as it does everywhere else: the list below happens on its own, every month, for one flat fee starting at $200/month.
Why it works
Built for a shop-floor economy that never sits still
Windsor runs on the shop floor — automotive suppliers, machining shops, parts distributors, and the trades that keep them running. That means books full of equipment purchases, parts inventory, multi-crew payroll, and vendor invoices that don't wait for month-end. We're not physically down the street, and we won't pretend otherwise — but bank feeds into QuickBooks (we're ProAdvisors), a secure document portal for receipts and POs, and a phone number a real person answers close that gap fast. What you get instead of a local office is a bookkeeper who actually knows 13% HST, WSIB registration, and CRA remittance schedules cold, plus pricing published on the website instead of quoted behind closed doors.
Windsor's other reality is the bridge: a lot of shops here buy from, sell to, or partner with businesses across the river in Detroit. We handle that too — bookkeeping for U.S. businesses is something we offer directly, so a Windsor owner with operations on both sides of the border can run one set of books through one team instead of splitting the file. Year-end tax and CFO work stay Canada-only, but the ledger itself doesn't have to be. It's the same pitch we make to businesses across Ontario: rules fluency instead of a storefront, and pricing you can check before you ever pick up the phone. Run your own numbers with the quote builder, check where your books actually stand with the free 2-minute books health check, or browse the guides for HST and payroll answers written for Ontario shops, not accountants.
Questions
Windsor owners usually ask
Are you actually in Windsor?
No, and we'd rather say so than fake it. AccruBooks is based in Kitchener–Waterloo–Cambridge, and we serve Windsor remotely — bank feeds, QuickBooks, and a secure document portal do the work a local office used to do, and a phone call or video chat handles the rest. What we bring instead of a downtown address is Ontario-rules fluency and a bookkeeper who'll actually pick up the phone.
We have a supplier or customer across the river in Detroit — does that complicate the books?
Not for bookkeeping. We categorize USD transactions, reconcile cross-border accounts, and keep a clean record of what crossed the bridge and when — all inside QuickBooks, same as any other vendor. It only gets Canada-specific once you move into HST filings, T2 returns, or CFO work, which stay scoped to the Canadian side of the business.
Do you work with U.S. businesses too?
Yes — bookkeeping only. If you or a related entity operates on the American side, we can keep those books as well, on the same QuickBooks setup, so one team sees the whole picture instead of two disconnected files. Year-end tax and fractional CFO stay Canada-only, since those are built around CRA rules for Canadian businesses.
What does bookkeeping cost for a Windsor shop?
Starts at $200/month with HST filings included, and the number is public — you don’t need a sales call to find it. Volume (parts invoices, payroll runs, multiple accounts) moves the price; the quote builder gives a real estimate in about two minutes.
Books that don't stop for the border.
15 minutes, no pitch — an honest read on where your books stand and what it would take to hand them off.
