What I can take off your plate
One tax return or the whole monthly cycle. Start with the bit that's keeping you up.
A bookkeeper who answers the phone and explains the numbers.
I started CR Bookkeeping because tradespeople and small firms kept telling me the same thing: their accountant was expensive, slow to reply, and talked in a language they didn't use.

How it works
Three steps, most of which are mine.
Tell me about the business
Use the form or ring me. I'll come back within a working day with a couple of questions and a fixed price.
Send what you've got
Bank statements, invoices, receipts, CIS statements. Photos over WhatsApp are fine; I'll tell you if anything's missing.
I deal with HMRC
Books done, returns filed, deadlines tracked. You get a short summary of what you owe, or what's coming back.
What clients say
“They handle our VAT returns, CIS and payroll, liaise with our accountant at year end, and provide useful financial reports throughout the year. Everything is managed professionally and efficiently.”

VAT, CIS and payroll client
Tips and deadlines, as they happen
Tax reminders, what you can claim, and the odd client thank-you.
Questions people ask before they get in touch
If yours isn't here, ask anyway. Nobody has ever asked me a daft one.
Fixed prices, agreed in writing before any work starts. A straightforward Self-Assessment return is a flat fee; bookkeeping and payroll are priced monthly depending on how much there is to do. Ask for a quote and you'll have a number, not a range.
Ready to hand the paperwork over?
Tell me what your business does and what's bothering you. You'll get a fixed price back in writing, and no hard sell.
