Whether you're a sole trader just starting out, running a family business, or managing a growing company, you’re bound to have a few questions. This page covers the most common things I’m asked — but if there’s anything else you’d like to know, just get in touch.

Do you offer a free consultation?

Yes — I offer a free, no-obligation initial consultation. It’s a chance to chat through your needs, ask questions, and decide if working together is the right fit for you.

What types of businesses do you work with?

I work with sole traders, partnerships, limited companies, and owner-managed or family-run businesses across a variety of industries. Clients are based both locally and across the UK.

Can you help if I’m just starting out?

Definitely. I regularly help new businesses with setup, registration, and choosing the right structure. I’ll guide you through the process so you start off on the right foot.

Do I need to use a particular accounting system?

No. I work with all major platforms — Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, and Excel — and I’ll fit in with whichever works best for you. I also offer setup and training support if needed.

How much do your services cost?

Fees are tailored to your business and the level of support you need. I offer fair and transparent pricing — and we’ll agree everything up front, with no hidden costs.

Can we work together remotely?

Yes. I support clients all over the UK via phone, email, video calls, and secure file sharing. If you're local, we can meet in person too — whatever suits you best.

What deadlines do I need to know about?

Key HMRC deadlines include:

31 January – Self Assessment submission & payment

5 April – End of the UK tax year

Quarterly – VAT returns (if applicable)

Monthly or Quarterly – Payroll (RTI submissions)
I’ll help you stay on track with reminders and guidance throughout the year.

Can you deal with HMRC on my behalf?

Yes — I can act as your agent with HMRC. I’ll handle communication, help interpret letters or notices, and support you with any queries or compliance checks.

Do you only offer yearly accounts and tax returns?

Not at all. I offer flexible, ongoing support — monthly, quarterly, or as needed. Whether you want help just once a year or regular hands-on involvement, I’ll tailor things to suit you.
