Switched from a high-street firm and saved me £4,200 last year just by structuring things properly. Wish I'd moved sooner.
Dan K.IT contractor
They handle my VAT, payroll and year-end without me having to chase anything. I actually understand my own numbers now.
Sofia M.café owner
Quarterly reviews changed how I run the business — we caught a cash-flow problem three months before it would've hurt.

Questions

Common questions

Is switching accountants painful?

Not on your end — we contact your existing accountant, request the handover information (professional clearance) and migrate your records. Most clients don't need to do anything.

What's actually included in the fee?

Everything listed on your plan, plus unlimited advice by phone or email. No hourly billing and no surprise invoices — if the scope changes, we agree a new fixed fee first.

Do I need to use Xero?

We're a Xero Platinum partner and it's included in every plan, but we can also work with your existing software if you'd rather not switch.

Can you help if I've missed a deadline or got a fine?

Yes — we deal with HMRC directly, get your filings current, and in many cases can appeal penalties on your behalf.

Your first consultation is free — and genuinely useful

No sales pitch, just an honest look at your accounts and where a fixed fee could save you money.
