Running a business means making decisions before every answer is clear. Reliable books, a steady payroll process and organized tax records give those decisions a stronger foundation.

Breakwaters Consultancy Services was founded in 2023 in Waterloo, Ontario to provide that support. We work with Canadian entrepreneurs, growing companies, non-profits, franchises and accounting firms.

Our work brings bookkeeping, payroll, tax and financial advisory together. Start with the support you need today, then agree how it should evolve as your business changes.
