Yes, we handle VAT returns and maintain accurate records that account for trade-specific expenses like vehicle costs. We also manage company secretarial duties to ensure you meet Companies House requirements. This allows you to focus on your Gas Safe certified work and job management, while we take care of the financial compliance and HMRC deadlines.
Operating through a limited company allows you to split income between salary and dividends, which can impact your overall tax position. We advise on directors’ tax returns and corporation tax planning to help you structure this effectively. This approach requires careful management of statutory accounts and bookkeeping to ensure you remain compliant with HMRC while optimising your take-home pay.
While the Gas Safe Register focuses on technical competence and safety inspections, your business must still maintain accurate financial records under Companies House and HMRC rules. For a limited company, this includes statutory accounts, VAT returns, and corporation tax filings. We help you organise these documents so they reflect your operational reality, such as vehicle and equipment costs, ensuring you meet all legal deadlines without the admin burden.
We don’t manage the Gas Safe registration itself, but we can ensure the associated fees and any related business expenses are correctly accounted for in your books. This helps you track these mandatory costs alongside your other operational expenditures.
Missing statutory deadlines can lead to penalties and interest charges from HMRC. We handle your accounts and submissions to ensure you hit all required dates, giving you the clarity needed to maintain your business without the stress of non-compliance.
Yes, you can often claim capital allowances on business assets like vans and tools. The best method depends on your cash flow and tax position. We advise on the most efficient way to claim this relief so it fits your financial situation while keeping your accounts compliant.
CIS (Construction Industry Scheme) requires main contractors to deduct tax from your payments before paying you. This is a payment on account, not your final tax bill. We help ensure these deductions are correctly recorded so you don’t overpay or miss claiming relief at the end of the year.
The structure you choose affects how much tax you pay and how you can take money out of the business. We can help you evaluate which structure suits your current income level and future plans, ensuring you are set up in the most efficient way possible from the start or if you are looking to change.
