General
You’re not legally required to use an accountant, but most people find it saves time and money. We ensure you claim all allowable expenses, submit on time, and avoid HMRC penalties. Our self-assessment service starts from just £150.
Absolutely. Switching is straightforward and we handle all the handover paperwork. We’ll contact your previous accountant professionally and there’s no downtime in your accounting support.
We are certified experts in Xero, QuickBooks, and Sage. We’ll recommend the right software for your business size and budget, and set it up for you at no extra charge.
Charities
Registered charities must submit accounts within 10 months of their financial year end. For charities with income over £25,000, an independent examination or audit is required. We handle both.
Charities only register for VAT if their taxable income exceeds the threshold (currently £90,000). Many charity activities are exempt or zero-rated. We assess your VAT position during your free consultation.
Landlords
Yes. HMRC expects landlords to keep accurate records of all rental income and allowable expenses. Good bookkeeping means you maximise deductions — mortgage interest, repairs, agent fees, insurance — and reduce your tax bill legally.
MTD for Income Tax applies from April 2026 to landlords and self-employed people earning over £50,000. You’ll need to submit quarterly updates to HMRC digitally. We’ll set you up fully compliant before the deadline.
Pricing & Getting Started
We offer transparent, fixed monthly pricing starting from £38/month for sole traders. All plans include a dedicated accountant, unlimited email support, and software access. Book a free call and we’ll give you an exact quote.
