Questions
How much does an accountant cost?
It depends on the type of business, how many transactions you have, and whether you need VAT, payroll or bookkeeping. After a free consultation we give you a fixed fee in writing, so you know the cost before we start.
Does Making Tax Digital apply to me?
It applies to sole traders and landlords whose combined income from self-employment and property is over £50,000 from April 2026, over £30,000 from April 2027 and over £20,000 from April 2028. We can check where you stand and get you set up.
Which accounting software do you work with?
Xero, QuickBooks Online, FreeAgent and Sage Accounting. If you are still using spreadsheets, we can help you choose the right software and set it up.
Can I switch accountant part-way through the year?
Yes. With your permission we contact your current accountant for professional clearance and your records, so nothing is missed.
Do I need to come to an office?
No. Most work can be done by phone, video call and email. If you would like to meet, we can arrange a meeting in our Newcastle office.
What do I need to get started?
Some ID for a quick online identity check, which anti-money laundering rules require, and your last tax return or accounts if you have them. We will tell you exactly what else is useful.
I have had a letter from HMRC. Can you help?
Yes. Send us a copy and we will explain what it means and what needs to happen next. 我们也可以用中文为您解释。
