Questions, answered.
Allowable expenses are costs incurred wholly and exclusively for the business: materials and stock, tools and equipment, insurance, software, phone and internet (business share), professional fees and vehicle costs. Larger equipment may qualify for capital allowances, and the £1,000 trading allowance is an alternative if it beats your real costs.
Yes. Everything is done online, so we act for clients in Gillingham, Rochester, Strood, Rainham, Luton, Walderslade and the wider Chatham area for the same fixed fee from £199 + VAT.
Chatham is about 1 mile north-east of Gillingham, but location is not a barrier. We work entirely online and by phone, so a self-employed tax return for a Chatham client is handled exactly as it would be anywhere else in the UK.
