FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording of your transactions, income, expenses and receipts. Accounting takes those records and turns them into year-end accounts, tax returns and advice. We do both, so your books feed straight into your accounts with nothing lost.
  • We work with Xero, QuickBooks and FreeAgent, the leading cloud packages. We can set you up on whichever suits your business, or work with the software you already have.
  • Yes. Keeping proper records is a legal requirement and it makes your Self Assessment far easier. Good books also mean you claim every allowable expense and never overpay tax.
  • As often as you need, daily, weekly or monthly. Most small businesses do well with a monthly cycle, but we will recommend what fits your size and pace.
  • Yes. We keep your records digitally and MTD-compliant, so VAT and, in time, income tax submissions are straightforward.
