For sole traders, CIS builders and landlords across Ayrshire. Keep your own records and we file, or hand us the shoebox and we do the lot.
Because we only work with the Self Assessment crowd, we know your reliefs, your deadlines and your questions before you ask them.
Trades, creatives, instructors and consultants. Use of home, vehicles, equipment and capital allowances worked out properly, every year.
How we help sole tradersClaim the van, tools, mileage and workwear against your CIS deductions and many subcontractors are owed a refund. We handle the monthly statements, the return and the claim.
How we help CIS buildersOne buy-to-let or a growing portfolio. Every allowable cost claimed, finance cost relief and joint ownership handled correctly.
How we help landlordsThe threshold is your combined self-employment and rental income before expenses. If you’re over it, you need digital records and a quarterly update to HMRC. We set you up and file every one.
A joiner turns over £56,000 but takes home £24,000 after materials and the van. It’s the £56,000 that counts, so Making Tax Digital applies to him.

Yes. We match your monthly CIS statements to what HMRC holds, claim every allowable expense and file your return, so any tax that was over-deducted comes back to you. Earlier years can often be claimed too.
