Why construction businesses work with us:

We understand the demands of running a busy site, managing subcontractors, and dealing with unpredictable costs. We also know the traps that catch out even experienced firms.

Did you know?

• You can’t claim VAT on builder’s work for new dwellings unless invoiced correctly under the zero-rate rules, and HMRC regularly challenge mistakes.
• Many businesses miss out on tax relief for pre-trading costs like design fees, legal costs, and feasibility studies, which can often be reclaimed if structured properly.
• CIS overpayments can take months to recover unless managed proactively. We help speed up the process and reduce the likelihood of future overpayments.
• Using company vehicles incorrectly can trigger unexpected Benefit in Kind charges, we help structure this tax-efficiently.

Property tax planning & compliance

Whether you own one rental property or a growing portfolio, property tax can be a minefield and the rules change regularly.

How we help landlords, developers and investors:

• Buy-to-let structuring – Own personally or via a limited company? We explain the pros and cons, based on your situation.
• Capital Gains Tax planning – Selling property? We help you time disposals, claim reliefs (like PPR and lettings relief), and reduce your bill.
• VAT on property transactions – Commercial property, mixed-use, and opted-to-tax buildings all have complex VAT implications. We help you avoid nasty surprises.
• Stamp Duty Land Tax – Most buyers overpay because they don’t understand reliefs (e.g. for multiple dwellings or mixed-use properties). We make sure you don’t.
• Interest restriction rules (Section 24) – If you’re a residential landlord, we help you restructure to avoid long-term tax leakage.

We also assist with:

• Rental income reporting and allowable expenses
• Inheritance Tax planning for property portfolios
