Monthly pricing
Get your estimated monthly package
Making Tax Digital compliance and your annual Self Assessment tax return are included in every monthly package—there is no separate fee for your year-end return.
Pop in your details to see your estimate. We’ll only use them to talk to you about your package.
Prices shown are indicative and based on the options you select. Your final monthly price is confirmed once we’ve agreed the scope of work—this is not a quote or a guarantee.
Stop guessing whether your CIS deductions add up.
If deductions aren't checked against your contractor statements, it's hard to know what you're actually owed at the end of the year.
- 01
Contractor statements arriving in different formats, at different times, and getting lost.
- 02
Trying to keep track of every CIS deduction taken from your contractor payments.
- 03
Materials and expenses left uncategorised, so your position looks worse than it is.
What we handle on the CIS side
Expenses and materials categorised
Materials, fuel, tools and site costs are categorised properly each month rather than reconstructed in a rush later.
Main-contractor return support
If you pay subcontractors, main-contractor CIS return support is available as a selected option in your monthly package.
Annual Self Assessment included
Your annual Self Assessment tax return is part of the monthly price, so there is no separate fee for it at year end.
