Accountancy & Advisory for owner-managed businesses

Old-fashioned service. A conversation, not a ticket number.

TG Accounts & Advisory works best as a relationship — a call, a proper conversation, someone who knows your business by name. Twenty-three years across practice and industry means the advice comes from someone who's genuinely been in your shoes.

Services

Accountancy and advisory, from one person who knows your business.

Pick a single service or hand me the lot. Everything runs through the same cloud systems, so nothing gets re-explained every time you call.

Annual Accounts & Corporation Tax

Know your tax bill months ahead, not in the final week — statutory accounts prepared and filed early, every year.

Self-Assessment & Personal Tax

For directors, sole traders and landlords. You'll know what you owe well before the deadline, not on 30 January.

Bookkeeping & Management Accounts

Regular bookkeeping and management accounts you can rely on, with someone on hand to explain what the numbers actually mean.

VAT Returns

Making Tax Digital compliant submissions, reviewed line by line before filing — not auto-submitted and forgotten.

Payroll

PAYE, pensions and payslips run on schedule every month, however many people are on it.

Business Advisory & Forecasting

Budgets, cash flow forecasts and scenario planning — the conversations that happen before a decision, not after.

Company Formation & Secretarial

Set up correctly from day one — company registration, share structure and Companies House filings handled for you.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax

Digital record keeping and quarterly HMRC updates handled properly, so the new deadlines are never a last-minute scramble.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax

How did your first quarter go?

If you're a sole trader or landlord earning over £50,000, Making Tax Digital for Income Tax became mandatory on 6 April 2026 — and 7 August 2026 was your first quarterly update deadline. That's four digital updates a year now, not one annual return.

If that first one was more of a scramble than it should have been, or nobody proactively got you set up on the right software and walked you through what's actually changed, it's worth asking whether your current accountant is keeping up with this as much as you need them to.

Talk to me about MTD
  • Mandatory from 6 April 2026 for income over £50,000 — dropping to £30,000 from April 2027, and £20,000 from April 2028.
  • Four quarterly updates a year, plus a Final Declaration by 31 January the following year — not one annual return anymore.
  • Digital records kept year-round in MTD-compatible software, not pulled together at the last minute.
  • Missed deadlines add up. Late quarterly updates now earn penalty points, with fines once you cross the threshold.

How it works

From first call to filed accounts, without the guesswork.

1

Free consultation

A short call to understand your business and whether we're the right fit — no obligation either way.

2

Fixed-fee proposal

A clear quote in writing before anything starts. No surprise invoices, no hourly-rate guesswork.

3

Onboarding & systems

I get you set up on cloud accounting software, connect your bank feeds, and take handover from your previous accountant if needed.

4

Ongoing support

Regular check-ins, direct access whenever you need it, and filings that happen ahead of the deadline, not on it.

Pricing

Fixed fee, agreed upfront — not a tier you're squeezed into.

I don't run standard packages, because no two businesses cost the same to look after. Every quote is worked out individually after a proper conversation about your business, then fixed in writing before anything starts. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices.

How a quote is built

One conversation, then a number you can rely on.

On the free consultation, I'll ask about your business rather than hand you a price list. What comes back is a single fixed fee that covers everything agreed — reviewed each year, never changed mid-year without your sign-off.

  • Turnover & transaction volume. A busier set of books takes more of my time, so it factors into the fee.
  • What's included. Bookkeeping, payroll and VAT can sit inside the fee or be added separately — your choice.
  • How complex things are. Multiple income streams, property, or group structures take more work than a straightforward set of accounts.
  • Never a surprise. Whatever the number ends up being, it's fixed and in writing before I start any work.
Why work with me

Old-school where it counts. Efficient everywhere else.

A lot of accountants are leaning on new tools and letting the personal side slip. I've gone the other way: I use efficient systems to clear the routine work off my desk, specifically so I have more time for the bit that shouldn't be automated — sitting down with you and talking it through.

The old-fashioned bit

Conversations, not portals.

A phone call, a proper meeting, plain English about what your numbers mean. If you'd rather talk it through than read a report, that's how we'll do it.

Behind the scenes

Nothing sits waiting.

Deadlines, reminders and routine paperwork are handled properly and on schedule, so you're never chasing me — or I'm never chasing HMRC on your behalf at the last minute.

Where the time goes

More of it spent advising you.

Time saved on data entry doesn't vanish into overheads — it goes straight into forecasting, planning, and the conversation you actually need this quarter.

Included for every client

Premium service, as standard — not an add-on.

Some firms sell direct access to a partner as an upgrade. I don't. Every client, whatever the size of their business, gets the same level of access to me.

Book a free consultation
  • Direct access to me. My direct number and inbox — not a shared support queue or a junior filtering your questions.
  • Replies within 24 hours, every time. Usually sooner — questions rarely wait for month-end.
  • No hidden tiers. The service you get on day one is the service you get in year five.
Common questions

Before you get in touch.

How much will it cost?

It depends on your turnover, transaction volume and which services you need — see how a quote is built above. You'll get an exact fixed fee in writing after a free first call, so there's never a surprise invoice.

Can you take over from my current accountant?

Yes — this is called professional clearance, and it's a standard, routine process. I'll handle the handover paperwork directly with your outgoing accountant so you don't have to chase anything.

What software do you use?

I work on cloud accounting software (compatible with Making Tax Digital), so your numbers are visible in real time rather than locked in a spreadsheet you only see once a year.

Does Making Tax Digital for Income Tax apply to me?

If you're a sole trader or landlord with qualifying income over £50,000, it applies to you now. That threshold drops to £30,000 from April 2027 and £20,000 from April 2028, so it's worth checking even if you're not caught yet — the free consultation covers this.

Do you only work with limited companies?

No — I work with sole traders, contractors and landlords too. If you're not sure what applies to you, that's exactly what the free consultation is for.

Is the 24-hour reply time really for everyone?

Yes. It's not a paid extra — every client gets direct access to me and a same-day-or-next-day reply as standard.
