A personal approach to accounting and tax
At Goldcrest, we know that everyone thinks differently and that’s why no two businesses are the same. This makes communication around finance and tax incredibly important. We tailor our approach to each client individually based on their needs. Whether you want to get technical or stick to plain English, our goal remains the same - to help you understand your numbers.

Our Services
Annual Accounts
Whether you run a Company, a partnership or a sole-trade business, everyone wants to see clear and concise accounts to ensure your business is on the right track.
Personal Tax Returns
It only takes a small amount of untaxed income to require a personal Tax Return to be delivered to HMRC these days. Give us a call to see if you are required to submit one or to plan for your recurring tax bills.
Partnership and Corporation Tax
Alongside your annual accounts, allow us to handle your partnership or Company Tax Return. As well as the Return itself, we can offer advice on how to be tax-efficient in the years ahead.
Payroll and
CIS
Let us handle your payroll and/or CIS function and take the stress out of the regular reporting requirements. Feed us the information and we will provide you with payslips for your employees and all the information you need in order to keep HMRC happy.
VAT
VAT can be an ever-present area of concern no matter how experienced you are in business. We can handle your regular VAT submissions and give advice around the VAT treatment of individual transactions or even the point at which you need to register.
Business Start-up
and Growth
Whether you’re dipping your toe into business for the first time or you’re facing some growing pains, it’s useful to have regular communication with your accountant to get a grip on potential problems. We will be on hand to offer as much input as you require. We can even provide regular in-year management accounts for those keen to keep a close eye on their finances.
CGT on Property Returns
If you have sell a residential property for a gain which isn’t your personal residence then you are required to report the gain and pay any Capital Gains Tax due within 60 days of completion. The setup and completion of the online forms can be problematic so let us take care of that problem for you.
Cryptocurrency Taxes
Those of you with an interest in crypto will no doubt be familiar with mining, staking and yield-farming. But how are these taxed in the UK? And did you know that converting one type of coin for another can trigger a capital gain which needs to be reported? Get in touch to talk through your crypto tax requirements.
Combining the latest accounting technology with a personal approach
We know the benefits that the latest technology brings. Cloud accounting software can cut your bookkeeping efforts considerably. Online portals allow us to transfer documents quickly and securely. AI is the next big thing in the accountancy sector for improving efficiency and output. Online meeting platforms allow us to stay in touch regularly, even if you live hundreds of miles away.
Whilst technology can be a great help, we shouldn’t forget that behind a business there are people, lives and livelihoods. Technology cannot replace the comfort you get from a conversation with someone who understands your business. Call or email us using the details below and let’s have a chat about how we can help you, no matter where you are in Great Britain.
