Plain language accounting for real businesses.
Maple Ridge Accounting was built for small business owners and self-employed individuals who want a CPA-certified accountant they can actually reach — without the overhead of a large firm.
No surprises. Plain language. Fixed fees.
Maple Ridge Accounting was founded in 2019 by Sarah Thompson after more than a decade at two of Canada's largest accounting firms. She saw firsthand how small businesses were underserved — assigned to junior staff, given generic advice, and handed invoices they had not anticipated.
Maple Ridge was built around a different model: senior attention, transparent pricing, fast communication, and accounting advice that actually makes sense to the person receiving it.
