The construction industry is unique.
Specialist construction accounting services.
Construction companies need specialist knowledge and support for their accounting and bookkeeping. We’re here to help you have accurate, up-to-date, compliant accounting records.
The Hancock and Hastings team have expert knowledge of the construction sector and its distinct accountancy requirements – your industry is a specialism of ours.
We’ll ensure your construction company complies with all the sector-specific requirements, such as CIS accounting and the VAT domestic reverse charge. If you suffer retentions, we'll ensure the amount held back is accounted correctly for corporation tax, VAT and CIS.
Best of all, we have a jargon-free, down-to-earth approach and offer excellent customer service.
Our team is here to help you have accurate, compliant and timely accounting and bookkeeping records that meet the specific construction sector requirements.
Let’s have an informal chat without obligation and see how we can help.
Contractors
You can rely on us for support with issues such as:
- Contractor registration with HMRC
- Verification of subcontractors
- Submission of your monthly CIS returns
You’ll receive payment and deductions statements to supply to your subcontractors, providing you with the CIS accounting compliance you need.
Subcontractors
We help with subcontractor registration with HMRC, including obtaining your Unique Tax Reference (UTR). Your annual self-assessment tax returns are prepared and submitted to HMRC. We work hard to minimise your tax liability. Sometimes we have happy news that a rebate is due! We’ll confirm how much is involved and when to expect the rebate payment.
Limited Companies
We offer all accounting for contractors, compliance and management services - bookkeeping, accounts, tax returns, VAT and payroll – monthly support bespoke to your needs. Our goal is to help you and your business be compliant and as tax efficient as possible. Let’s talk.
Sole traders
If you are self employed and submit Self Assessment tax returns, you need to comply with Making Tax Digital requirements due on 6 April 2026. Chat to us about the issues involved, such as using cloud-based bookkeeping software and submitting quarterly business income and expenses updates. We’ve been through this process with our VAT-registered clients and can share best practises and advice with you.
