The reality

Construction finances are their own beast.

Between CIS deductions, retentions and HMRC's construction-specific VAT rules, generic accountants get this stuff wrong more often than you'd think. Any of this sound familiar?

Job costing guesswork

Without proper job costing, it's hard to know which contracts are actually making you money.

Cash tied up in retentions

Money held back until practical completion, while your suppliers, wages and tax bills don't wait.

Subcontractor vs employee risk

Get employment status wrong and HMRC can come after both your CIS and PAYE position.

VAT domestic reverse charge

Get one invoice wrong under the reverse charge rules and you could end up paying VAT you never needed to.

CIS deductions & refunds

Verifying subcontractors, filing monthly CIS300 returns, and chasing overpaid CIS back from HMRC.

Outgrown a bookkeeper, not ready for a CFO

You need more than someone entering invoices, but a full-time finance hire isn't the right fit yet either.

The way it should work

What it looks like with an accountant who gets construction.

You focus on running your sites and winning the next contract. We make sure the numbers, HMRC compliance and cash flow are handled properly in the background.

CIS handled end-to-end

Subcontractor verification, monthly returns, and reclaiming any overpaid CIS you're owed.

VAT reverse charge done right

Invoices and VAT returns that correctly apply the construction-specific reverse charge rules.

Real job costing

See which contracts are genuinely profitable, instead of guessing at the end of the year.

Cash flow you can see coming

Visibility over retentions, stage payments and upcoming tax bills, so there are no more nasty surprises.

Cloud accounting, built for site life

Log expenses, mileage and invoices from your phone between jobs, wherever you are.

One point of contact

A qualified accountant who actually knows your business, not a rotating call centre.

Ivan SasuGoogle review

Rehan is very knowledgeable and helpful. I recently transitioned over to him for my accounting needs, my previous accountant would often delay with answering queries I may have had but Rehan is very prompt and reliable, always on hand for support when needed. I would recommend him for all your accounting needs.

Highly recommend accounting services, run by a founder who responds via WhatsApp when things need urgent attention, which saves multiple emails! I could only praise the services and their human element that they give to processes which are often arduous and frustrating, so they make that a lot easier.

I highly recommend Rehan for anyone needing personal tax help. He made the entire filing process incredibly smooth and stress-free discussing options available. Rehan was patient, answered all my complex questions, and helped me find deductions I completely missed in previous years. His communication was fast, and the pricing was clear from the start. I will definitely recommend him.

Amazing service! Before we even partnered, Rehan reached out to let me know I had an overdue confirmation statement, which I had absolutely no idea about. That moment alone showed me, from day one, how much he genuinely cares about accounting and supporting small businesses.

I would've been fined if he hadn't flagged it. And to this day, I still have no idea how taxes work but that's absolutely fine! Highly recommend to anyone looking for an effective, straightforward, no-fuss service.

I cannot recommend Rehan highly enough. From the very beginning, he has been incredibly knowledgeable, professional and approachable. No matter how complex (or simple!) a question or situation may be, he takes the time to explain everything clearly and in a way that's easy to understand.

What I appreciate most is how responsive and efficient he is. Rehan always gets back to me quickly, keeps me updated throughout the process, and makes what can often be a stressful task feel straightforward and hassle-free.

He has been exceptionally thorough and efficient when completing my returns, ensuring everything is submitted accurately and on time. His attention to detail and expertise give me complete confidence that everything is being handled properly.

If you're looking for an accountant who is knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely cares about helping his clients, I would not hesitate to recommend Rehan.
