From dealing with Domestic Reverse Charge VAT to handling subcontractor payments, the rules are far more intricate compared to other industries.
Payroll in the construction industry also comes with its quirks, particularly in managing CIS deductions and ensuring that both employees and subcontractors are paid accurately and on time. VAT compliance, especially under the reverse charge mechanism, requires precision to avoid costly mistakes.
Getting these elements wrong can lead to penalties, increased HMRC scrutiny, and cash flow issues. That’s why we provide specialised reporting and expert guidance, ensuring that your VAT returns, payroll submissions, and CIS filings are always accurate and timely. Our tailored approach helps you stay compliant and prevents costly errors that could impact your business’s bottom line.

I was told that as a sole trader that I wouldn't need professional help. That was until my tax bill was a lot more than I expected. I had heard good things about B and P and shouted for help. Within a couple of hours my tax bill had been cut, sarah had thoroughly checked all of my transactions and corrected a lot of them. She was patient with me and was very professional. She explained what she had done and gave me tips for next time. sarah is an absolute saviour and a diamond. I really appreciate her hard work and talent and sarah, if you read this....thank you. Jamie Roberts2024-07-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It hasn’t just been about getting my paperwork In order I’ve received a lot of help and guidance since starting to use the services of Brickbooks & Payroll. I had bad/costly experiences with previous accountants so was looking for a new professional. Sarah was recommended to me and I just wish she had been recommended 3 years earlier. Would 100% recommend to anyone else. Molly Waller Beauty2024-07-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am so grateful to Sarah for all of her expert help throughout my self assessment process. Dealing with my business accounts is so much easier thanks to her & her team. She’s also helped me with collecting all the essential documents while I was buying my house & made the process so much easier! Looking forward to continuing to work with BrickBooks 🫶🏼 Thanks so much James Hudson (Huddy)2024-07-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Can’t recommend them enough. I was given great advice by Sarah and it saved me a small fortune. Just an hour of advice and asking them to take on my accounts led to my business having more working capital to put back into it and grow, but also gave me a lot more of my own time back to focus on other things that needed my attention. Instead of my time being consumed doing paperwork and making phone calls etc, I’m now busy focusing on the company. I highly recommend them, it’s great having that feeling that my accountants are working for me and not the tax man.
