Taking you into account

Your assets and accounts are precisely that – yours. That’s why we strive to keep you in the centre of everything we do, right from the start. 

The financial success and security we help all our clients achieve tell us that our ambition to reinvent the one-way relationship between business owners and accountants works.

Our work with individuals and SMEs has proven that cultivating a professional relationship, with a touch of personal care and attention, will always lead to you making the right business decisions. 

Here every step of the way

We assure every one of our clients that we apply our expertise and collaborative approach from day one.

Cultivating a trusting and professional relationship has always been our prime directive. We want every business to understand that their financial growth and success is as important to us as it is to them.

You will never be left in the dark, or out of the loop – every team member knows communicating thoroughly and effectively with you and your business is their top priority.

TESTIMONIALS

What our clients
have to say

“Brilliant”

“I cannot thank the team at Black & White Accountancy enough for their care and attention to my tax returns every year. As a self employed small business with a limited amount of tax knowledge and a huge fear of all tax matters, the team at B & W 100% alleviate all the stress by keeping things simple and advise me on what they need in a very efficient and helpful way…”

Rena Findlay | Personalisemyvest

“Thanks!”

“I’m a creative and I’m best when I can focus on what I do best, which is being creative. Black and White sort out everything to do with my personal tax return as well as the company accounts and tax, so I don’t even have to think about it.”

Fudge Jarcheh | The Entertainment Service Ltd

“Vast improvements!”

“B&W helped me out when I had a start-up Management Consultancy business and made everything accounting and tax really easy for me, using Xero. I’m now at an investment business. They guided us through incorporation, assisted us with VAT, Accounts and Tax, to ensure we never pay more tax than we need to.”

Sam Carpenter | Ruttan Wilson Ltd and Chapel…

“Great for retail businesses!”

“We had a retail business which had been squeezed by rent and rate increases. Not only did we struggle to pay the employees, but we struggled to pay for stock in the shop, let alone pay ourselves anything. We thought we’d have to just shut the doors and walk away, until we talked it through with Jon. Not only did he help us secure a large sum for the business that I just wanted to…

Anita Milsom | Morgans Hardware LTD

“Perfect for start-up businesses!”

“As a small start-up business you can’t be an expert in everything so it’s important to have people to call upon when you need advice – Black and White are knowledgeable, helpful and communicate in plain English. They come highly recommended from us.”

Nat Debney-Davies | Osiris AV Ltd

“Great location!”

“Timely and outstanding service. Great location!”

Glenn Worger | SGW Plant Hire Ltd

“Caring company!”

“We use Black and White for our quarterly management reports, annual accounts and personal tax management. They’re a bright bunch with a caring attitude . We look forward to working with them for many years to come.”

Steve Boyce | Clever Little Design Ltd

“Black & White guided the way!”

“Having recently completed my first year of books, the thought of having to deal with the tax office scared the living daylights out of me. However, I shouldn’t have worried, after being highly recommended to Black & White Accounting my worries were over. The team at Black & White were amazing, guided me through every step of the process and also gave me advice and guidance on how to run my business accounts more efficiently….

Sharon Worger | SGW Plant Hire Ltd

“I could not have asked for more”

“I’ve been a client of B&W for several years. They have been very prompt in asking me for information for my tax returns, but always politely and so that they can submit them to HMRC in good time. So much so that I usually have several months to find the money I owe! My tax returns have always been prepared within 24 hours or so of my submission – I could not have asked for more.

Alan Toogood

“Wouldn’t work with anyone else”

“I have been working with Trish for many years and she works exactly how I want to work; every quarter I drop off my box of information and she tells me what my VAT is within a day or two. I didn’t even notice any difference from making tax digital as we continued to work how we had before. Wouldn’t work with anyone else”

Richard Hughes | CMH Fabrications Limited

“No hesitation in recommending”

“Black and White Accounting have been responsible for my Company Accounts for many years, during this time I have always found them to be professional in their approach, diligent in their work and accurate with their submissions. In addition they provide unsolicited information in relation to updates/changes in legislation/rules that from time to time come into force. I shall continue to utilise their services for the foreseeable future and would have no hesitation in recommending…”

Alan Maskell | Alan Maskell Aviation Consultancy Limited

“Friendly, approachable and efficient”

“We moved to Black And White after 16 years with another firm because our previous accountants became too ‘corporate’, expensive and remote. Black And White have taken the trouble to get to know us and our business. They are friendly approachable and efficient. We’re happy to have them on our side.”

Michael Bloomfield | Music & Cinema Memorabilia

“Wouldn’t use anyone else!”

“I am a small sole trader, but still their advice saved me nearly £2,000 of tax on my 16/17 tax return. Wouldn’t use anyone else!”

Zoltan Kertesz | ZK Painting & Decorating Services

“Wonderful!”

“I have been working with Trish for nearly 15 years now and haven’t looked back. Black And White guided us through the complexity of becoming a limited company and setting up a payroll scheme after many years of being a sole trader. Honestly, it’s made no difference to us, other than the limitation of liability and the tax savings. Wonderful!”

Jan Cousins | Machinery Moves

“We were very happy!”

“Following the sale of our second home, we had a CGT liability which needed to be declared to HMRC by the real-time submission within 30 days of sale. We have never had to use the services of an Accountant before but they made the whole process very simple, quick and easy for us, taking away the stress of trying to do it ourselves, all for a very reasonable rate.
