Employee assessment, contributions and re-enrolment handled, with The Pensions Regulator declarations submitted on time.

Bank reconciliation

Every account reconciled on a set schedule, so the figures you make decisions on actually match the bank.

Months or years behind? We rebuild the records, bring the filings up to date and keep them there.

CIS returns

Monthly CIS returns for contractors, deduction statements for subcontractors, and repayment claims chased until HMRC pays.

Day-to-day bookkeeping

Payroll (RTI)

Weekly or monthly payroll with payslips, RTI submissions and pension uploads, filed on time every period.

VAT returns (Making Tax Digital)

Quarterly VAT prepared, reviewed and filed under MTD, with the scheme choice that suits you: standard, flat rate or cash accounting.

Annual statutory accounts

Year-end accounts prepared under FRS 105 or FRS 102 1A and filed at Companies House on time, with a plain-English summary of what the numbers say.

Companies House ID verification support

Every director and person with significant control must verify their identity. We walk you through it in minutes.

Company formation

Incorporation done properly on day one: share structure, PSC register, registered office and the tax registrations new directors miss.

Confirmation statements

Filed accurately and on time every year, with shareholder and PSC details kept current so Companies House never becomes a problem.

Dormant company accounts

Keeping a company on ice? We file the dormant accounts and confirmation statement so it stays in good standing.

Independent examination for charities under the audit threshold — the proportionate check the Charity Commission expects.

Use our address as your registered office, with prompt handling and scanning of statutory mail.

Sole trader & partnership accounts

Clean year-end figures for unincorporated businesses, ready for self assessment and for the bank when you need finance.

Capital gains tax

Disposal computations, the 60-day property return, and timing advice that uses your exemptions and marginal rates properly.

Corporation tax (CT600)

Company tax computations and CT600 filing, with marginal relief and reliefs actually worked through rather than guessed.

Dividend & salary planning

The most tax-efficient split of salary and dividends for your circumstances, reworked every April rather than recycled from the year you joined.

HMRC enquiries & disclosures

If HMRC opens an enquiry or you need to come forward, we manage the whole conversation and negotiate the penalties down.

Landlord & property tax

Rental accounts, the interest restriction, capital versus revenue repairs, and planning for disposals — for one flat or a portfolio.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax

Digital records set up and quarterly updates filed for sole traders and landlords inside MTD for Income Tax, with penalty points kept at zero.

Pre-year-end tax review

A working session before your year-end, while there is still time to act on pensions, capital spending, dividends and losses.

R&D tax relief

Honest R&D claims documented to survive an HMRC enquiry, with no percentage-fee inflation.

Self assessment

Your personal tax return prepared, checked against every relief you are entitled to, and filed well before 31 January — with payments on account explained in advance.

Budgets & business plans

Numbers that stand up — for the bank, for investors, or for deciding whether the next hire pays for itself.

Business startup advice

Structure, registrations and first-year tax planning in one session, so the business starts on the right foundations.

Cash flow forecasting

A rolling cash view plus a 12-month forecast, so hiring, tax bills and quiet months stop being surprises.

Exit & succession planning

Selling or winding down? Planning the exit early around the available reliefs is regularly worth five figures.

Sole trader to limited company

The incorporation decision modelled on your actual figures — tax saved, costs added, the right timing — then executed for you if the answer is yes.
