Bookkeeping for Galveston County Small Businesses
Bookkeeping and tax services for businesses across Galveston County. From island tourism to mainland growth communities.
Bookkeeping for Galveston County
Galveston County covers a lot of ground. The island draws tourists to its restaurants and beach shops. The mainland keeps growing as League City, Friendswood, and Dickinson add neighborhoods and the businesses that serve them. Texas City has its industrial base. Santa Fe and Hitchcock sit somewhere in between. Different communities, different economies, but the same basic need for someone keeping the books straight.
We’re based in The Woodlands and serve small businesses throughout the Greater Houston area, Galveston County included. Monthly bookkeeping, tax returns, and bookkeeping cleanup and catch-up services when things have gotten behind. The work happens remotely, so your location in the county doesn’t affect how we work together.
Full-Service Bookkeeping

Transactions categorized, bank and credit card accounts reconciled, books closed monthly. You get financial statements that show where your business actually stands without spending your weekends in QuickBooks.
Tax Preparation
Tax Preparation
Business and personal tax returns prepared with the books we’ve maintained all year. No scrambling to find records in March. Returns filed correctly with all required schedules.
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Catch-Up Bookkeeping
Months or years behind? We sort through the backlog, reconstruct what’s missing, reconcile accounts, and deliver clean records. Then monthly service keeps it from happening again.
Cash Flow Planning
Cash Flow Planning
Seasonal businesses need to know what’s coming. We help you project cash flow, plan for slower months, and make decisions based on actual numbers rather than gut feelings.
Galveston County Businesses We Work With
The county’s economy runs in two directions. On the island, it’s tourism. Restaurants filling up on weekends, shops on the Strand, vacation rentals turning over every few days. On the mainland, it’s residential growth. Contractors building houses, service companies maintaining them, retail and restaurants following the rooftops south from Houston.
We work with businesses doing $100K to a few million in revenue. Operations that have grown past doing their own books but don’t need a full-time accountant on staff. If you’re somewhere in that range and the financial side of your business keeps slipping, we can take that piece off your plate.
Restaurants and Hospitality
Restaurants and Hospitality
Galveston Island runs on restaurants and bars. The Strand, Seawall, and everywhere in between. We track food costs, labor, tips, and the daily cash flow that hospitality businesses depend on to know if they’re actually making money.
Retail and Tourism
Retail and Tourism
Gift shops, beach supply stores, boutiques, tour operators. Businesses that see most of their revenue in a few busy months. We track inventory, handle the sales tax complexity, and help you manage cash flow through the slow season.
Contractors and Trades
Contractors and Trades
League City and Friendswood keep growing. Builders, remodelers, electricians, plumbers, HVAC. We handle job costing so you know which projects actually made money, and keep records ready when you need them for bonding or bank relationships.
Property Services
Property Services
Vacation rental management, landscaping, pool service, cleaning companies, pest control. Galveston properties need constant attention, and the businesses providing that service need books that reflect the reality of multiple clients and recurring work.
Common Questions
You're in The Woodlands. How do you serve Galveston County?
Everything happens remotely. You upload documents to a secure portal, we handle the bookkeeping and tax work, and we communicate by phone, email, or video call. Most clients prefer it this way because there's nothing to schedule. When an in-person meeting makes sense, we're about an hour away.
What does monthly bookkeeping cost?
Starting at $199 per month based on your expense volume. We quote exact pricing after learning about your business so there are no surprises.
Our business is seasonal. Can you handle that?
Yes. Many Galveston County businesses are seasonal, especially on the island. We adjust our approach to match your busy and slow periods. During off-season we can help with planning and catch-up work. During peak season we stay on top of the higher volume.
My books are a mess. Where do we start?
With catch-up work. We go back through the history, categorize transactions, reconcile accounts, and get everything current. Then we move to monthly bookkeeping so it stays that way.
Do you handle Texas sales tax?
Yes. We track what you owe and make sure filings happen on time. Texas sales tax rules can get complicated depending on what you sell and where, but we stay on top of it.
