Our Services for Limited Companies
Limited companies are at the core of what we do. We work with owner managed businesses across Bath and the surrounding area, acting as a trusted partner to directors.
Accounts, tax and compliance
We handle the full scope of your company's tax and accounting obligations: annual accounts, corporation tax returns, VAT returns, payroll, and Companies House compliance. Beyond compliance, we advise on tax efficient director remuneration, including the optimal balance of salary and dividends. We identify tax reliefs, capital allowances, and legitimate expenses to reduce your corporation tax liability and keep more money in your business.
Management accounts and financial reporting
We prepare regular management accounts so you always know how your business is performing, not just at year end but throughout the year. You get clear, timely information that helps you make better decisions about spending, hiring, pricing, and growth.
Payroll and pension administration
We calculate and run your payroll, ensuring RTI submissions and auto enrolment are taken care of every month. Whether you pay yourself as a sole director or employ a team, we make sure everyone is paid correctly and HMRC gets what it needs on time.
Your outsourced finance department
For many of our clients, we act as a complete outsourced finance department. Including bookkeeping, payroll, tax advice and regular management reports, from one firm of ICAEW chartered accountant who knows your business, giving you clear, honest advice and numbers.
Self Employed / Sole Traders
We have extensive experience in preparing and submitting your personal tax return to HMRC.
Our focus on self-employed individuals allows us to utilise eligible expenses and tax reliefs, helping to reduce your tax bill.
We provide comprehensive bookkeeping services to keep your records organised and compliant with HMRC, giving you more time to focus on growing your business.
Our professional services take care of every aspect of your HMRC submissions, so you can focus on running your business.
Otto S - Bath, UK
I truly could not be more grateful to James! Completing my tax return with him this year was a total joy - most years I approach January with utter dread as the Self Assessment deadline looms, but this year James made the process entirely stress-free - I only wish I had found him sooner!

We discussed going self employed. Would recommend! James was efficient, organised, trustworthy and knowledgeable. Great at explaining things too!
