Snap the receipt.
We'll sort the books.
Fixed monthly bookkeeping for sparkies, plumbers and every trade in between. Take a photo of your receipts on your phone, and we keep Xero up to date and get your BAS done every quarter.
You're great on the tools. The paperwork, not so much.
Most tradies we talk to have the same four headaches. We take all of them off your plate for one flat monthly price.
Receipts in the glovebox
Faded, crumpled and missing when you need them. Every lost receipt is a deduction you don't get.
BAS creeping up again
Every quarter the same scramble. We prepare and lodge it for you, on time, every time.
No idea how you're tracking
Busy isn't the same as profitable. We show you what's coming in, what's going out and what's left.
Nights lost to paperwork
After a full day on site, the last thing you need is data entry. Hand it over and get your evenings back.
Three steps. Only one of them is yours.
If you can take a photo on your phone, you can do this. The rest happens in the background.
We set you up
We get Xero and the Dext app ready to go, connect your bank feeds and show you the ropes. Keeping your books up to date is simple from day one.

Big-firm experience. Tradie-simple service.
G'day, I'm Elleot. I ran my own accounting practice in Canberra for more than 20 years, growing it to a team of 25. I started Easy Tradie Books to do one thing really well: keep tradies' books clean and their BAS on time, for a price that doesn't change.
You won't get jargon or a bill every time you pick up the phone. Just someone who knows what they're doing, looking after the numbers so you can look after the job.
Less paperwork. More time on the tools.
"[Sample review] I used to do my BAS on a Sunday night with a shoebox of receipts. Now I just take a photo and forget about it."
"[Sample review] Two years behind and dreading it. They gave me a fixed price, caught everything up and now I actually know where I stand."
"[Sample review] Payroll and super for my two apprentices used to eat my Fridays. Now it just happens. Worth every cent."

Most files that come to us need a bit of work, and that's fine. Tell us where things are at and we'll come back with a fixed price to get you up to date, before your monthly plan starts.
Straight answers.

Ask a questionDo I need to be good with computers?
Nope. If you can take a photo on your phone, you're sorted. We set everything up and show you how the Dext app works.
Is Xero really included in the price?
Yes. Your Xero subscription and Dext are both included in the monthly fee. No extra software bills.
Which package do I need?
If you trade under your own name with no employees, it's Sole Trader. If you run through a company, trust or partnership, or have staff, it's Small Business.
Do you do my tax return?
We keep your books and lodge your BAS every quarter. At the end of the financial year you get a clean, up-to-date file to hand to your accountant for your tax return.
I'm a few quarters behind. Can you help?
Absolutely. We'll look at where things are at and give you a fixed quote to catch up before your monthly plan starts.
I'm not in Canberra. Does that matter?
Not at all. We're 100% online and work with tradies right across Australia.
Am I locked into a contract?
No lock-in. It's a simple monthly subscription. [Confirm notice period]
