At H&H Bookkeeping and Tax Services, we’re the bridge between your business and your accountant. Based in Chester, Nova Scotia, we offer hands-on bookkeeping and tax support for individuals and small businesses who need help managing the details — invoices, expenses, HST, and monthly or quarterly reporting.
