What I handle on your behalf
From organising your records to filing your return with HMRC, I take care of everything your self assessment requires.
Self Assessment Tax Return
I prepare and file your self assessment tax return from start to finish. Every allowable business expense is identified and claimed, so your tax bill is as low as it legally can be. You receive a clear summary of what you owe and why before anything is submitted.
Filed directly with HMRCYear-End Accounts for Sole Traders
Your year-end accounts give HMRC the figures they need and give you a clear picture of how your business performed. I prepare these from whatever records you have, whether that is a spreadsheet, a pile of receipts, or a bank statement. No judgement, just results.
Plain English summary includedBookkeeping and Records Support
If your records are disorganised or incomplete, I can help get them into shape before your return is prepared. Day-to-day bookkeeping, bank reconciliation, and income and expense tracking are all available as part of an ongoing package. Keeping things tidy throughout the year makes the return process much quicker.
Available as a monthly packageWhy clients come back every year
Three things that make a genuine difference when you need your self assessment done right.
You always deal with David directly
There are no junior staff, no handoffs, and no call centres at STZ Accounting. When you send a message, I answer it. When you have a question about your tax bill, I am the person who explains it. That consistency matters when you are trusting someone with your finances.
A fixed price, agreed before any work starts
You will know exactly what your self assessment costs before I begin. There are no hourly rates to worry about and no invoice surprises at the end. The price is fixed and it is confirmed in writing.
Over 25 years of real business experience
I ran businesses for more than 25 years before I qualified as an accountant. That means I understand what sole traders actually go through, not just the tax rules that apply to them. I bring both perspectives to every return I file.
How it works
Getting your self assessment sorted is a straightforward four-step process, and I guide you through each one.
Book a free call
We spend 20 to 30 minutes on the phone going over your situation. I find out what income sources you have, what records you hold, and whether there are any missed deadlines to address. There is no charge and no obligation.
Send me your records
You share whatever you have, invoices, bank statements, receipts, or a spreadsheet. I tell you exactly what I need so there is no guessing. If your records need tidying up first, I handle that too.
I prepare your return
I work through your figures, identify every expense you are entitled to claim, and prepare your self assessment return in full. Before anything is submitted, I send you a clear summary showing your taxable profit, your tax liability, and what to expect from HMRC.
Filed and confirmed
Once you are happy with the figures, I file your return directly with HMRC. You receive confirmation of submission and I remain available to answer any follow-up questions the same day they arrive.
