Who We Help
Is Creekside Accounting a good fit for you?
We typically work with small business owners who want more than just a year-end tax return.
We are a good fit if you:
- Are just starting a business or subcontractor role and are wondering what to do next
- Are planning to incorporate and are unsure how or when to proceed
- Are already incorporated and want more proactive tax planning
- Want clear explanations and practical advice, not just numbers
- Wants advice from a fellow small business owner who understands the realities of running a business
We may not be the best fit if you:
- Require highly complex tax services, such as trusts, corporate reorganizations, or estate planning
- Need specialized tax work outside our core focus, including farming, fishing, indigenous organizations, or immigration-related tax matters, where different tax rules apply.
- Require audited or review engagement financial statements

Hwy 33 Autopro - A Growth Journey
Our journey at Highway 33 AutoPro has been one of growth and transformation, especially since becoming clients of Creekside Accounting.

They introduced us to technology that simplified our bookkeeping, allowing us to focus more on what we do best—providing exceptional mechanical services to all vehicle makes and models, including fleet services. Their guidance helped us consistently make better financial decisions.
Beyond day-to-day finances, Creekside Accounting also helped us plan for the future. They assisted in setting up retirement plans tailored to our business needs, ensuring we could secure our financial future while expanding our services. Their proactive advice and strategic insights were crucial in shaping our growth trajectory.
Since teaming up with Creekside Accounting five years ago, Highway 33 AutoPro has seen remarkable growth (almost 40% in fact).
