Everything your tax affairs need, in one place

Choose a monthly plan and we look after the routine. When something unexpected lands, from a property sale to a letter from HMRC, we deal with that too.

Every month

Monthly bookkeeping

Your income and expenses kept up to date, so you always know where you stand.

VAT returns

Preparation and submission of your VAT returns, keeping you compliant and on track.

Support when you need it

Email and WhatsApp, day or night. Ask a question and get a straight answer.

Every year

Self assessment tax returns

Your return prepared and filed on time, with every expense you are entitled to claimed.

Tax liability forecasting

Know roughly what you will owe before the deadline arrives, so there are no nasty surprises.

Company filings

Corporation tax and other key filings for small limited companies, handled for you.

When it matters

60 day property returns

Sold a UK residential property? We calculate and report Capital Gains Tax within the 60 day window.

HMRC enquiries and compliance

We read the letter, prepare the response and deal with HMRC on your behalf.

Late filing and penalties

Behind on a return or hit with a penalty? We get you up to date and challenge it where we can.

Taxi drivers, electricians, beauticians, landlords and anyone with a side hustle that has outgrown a shoebox of receipts.

If you earn outside of a payslip, there is a good chance you are paying more tax, or spending more time on it, than you need to. We fix both.

Is your side hustle taxable?

Simple monthly pricing

One fixed fee each month, based on what you need. Your first 2 months are free, with no upfront cost.

Getting started takes one conversation

Tell us about you

Book a call or send a message. We learn what you do, what you earn and what needs catching up.

Send us what you have

Photos of receipts, bank statements, a spreadsheet. Whatever you have goes to us by WhatsApp or email.

We take it from there

We keep your books, file on time and explain your figures plainly. You always know what is coming next.

Behind on your tax, or worried about a letter?

It is more common than you would think, and usually more fixable than it feels. We help with overdue returns, late filing penalties and HMRC enquiries, with no judgement.

Questions we are often asked

Do you only work with people in Glasgow?

No. We are based in Glasgow and our clients are right across the UK. Everything runs by email, WhatsApp and phone or video call.

Do limited companies cost more?

Not automatically. Plenty of tradespeople operate through a limited company and their books are no more complicated. We price on the work involved, so you only pay for what you need.

How does the free offer work?

Join one of our monthly plans and your first two months are free, with no upfront cost. Get in touch and we will confirm the details for your situation.

Which plan is right for me?

If you have a job and some extra income on the side, Side Hustle is our lowest rate. If self-employment is your main income, Sole Trader covers you. Letting out property? Landlord is priced per property. If you run a limited company, we quote for the work actually involved, so a one-person trade is not charged like a complex business. Not sure? Ask and we will point you to the right one.

When is the self assessment deadline?

Online returns and payment are due by 31 January after the end of the tax year. A tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April. If you are new to self assessment, you must register by 5 October after the end of the tax year.

What is a 60 day property return?

If you sell a UK residential property and there is Capital Gains Tax to pay, you generally have to report the sale and pay the tax within 60 days of completion. We prepare and file it for you.

I have missed a deadline. What now?

Do not wait. Get in touch and we will establish what is outstanding, get it filed and look at whether the penalty can be reduced or appealed.
