Is your accounting costing you more than it should?

Answer five quick questions and get a clear picture of where you stand and what to do next.

WHAT I DO

What I handle on your behalf

Whether you are a sole trader, landlord, contractor or limited company in Motherwell, I cover the accounting work that keeps your business compliant and your finances in order.

01

Self Assessment Tax Returns

I prepare and file your self assessment from start to finish, making sure every allowable expense is claimed. You tell me what you have earned and spent, I take care of the rest. No last-minute panic, no missed deadlines.

For sole traders and landlords
02

Year-End Accounts and Corporation Tax

I prepare your limited company accounts and corporation tax return, keeping you on the right side of Companies House and HMRC. I also look for legal ways to reduce your tax bill before filing. Everything is explained in plain English before anything is submitted.

For limited companies
03

Bookkeeping and VAT Returns

I keep your day-to-day records accurate, reconcile your bank, and submit your quarterly VAT returns on time. Clear books mean you always know where your money is and what you owe. I can also advise on the VAT scheme that saves you the most.

For growing businesses
WHY IT WORKS

Why clients come back every year

Three things make a genuine difference when you are choosing an accountant.

You always speak to David

There are no juniors here, no call centres, no handoffs. When you have a question, you reach me directly. That means you get a straight answer from someone who knows your numbers, not a message relayed through a team.

Fixed prices agreed before we start

You know exactly what you are paying before any work begins. No hourly rates, no unexpected extras at the end of the year. A fixed quote means you can budget with confidence and there are no uncomfortable conversations about invoices.

Same-day responses when it matters

Tax questions do not always arrive at convenient times. I respond the same day as standard, so you are never left waiting when something important comes up. Clients based anywhere in the UK get that same level of access.

GETTING STARTED

How it works

Getting started is straightforward and takes less time than you think.

01

Book a free call

You book a short call at a time that suits you. There is no obligation and nothing to prepare in advance. It is a chance to explain your situation and ask any questions you have.

02

Get a fixed quote

After the call I send you a clear, fixed price for exactly what you need. No vague estimates and no hourly rates. You know the full cost before deciding anything.

03

Send over your documents

You share your records with me digitally, at your own pace. I tell you exactly what I need and I work around your schedule. There are no office visits required.

04

I handle it from here

I prepare everything, keep you updated in plain English, and file on time. You stay in the loop without being buried in the detail.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Common questions

No. I work fully remotely with clients across Motherwell, South Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. Everything is handled digitally and by phone or email. You get the same personal service without needing to travel anywhere.
After our initial call I send you a written quote for the work you need. That price does not change unless the scope of your work changes significantly. There are no hourly rates and no invoices that catch you off guard.
Yes, this is something I deal with regularly. Whether you have missed a filing deadline or simply have months of records to catch up on, I can assess where things stand and get you back on track. It is better to sort it now than wait.
I work with sole traders, landlords, limited companies, contractors, and CIS subcontractors. If you run a small business or side income in or around Motherwell, I can almost certainly help. Book a free call and we will confirm that in the first five minutes.
