Specialist Accounting for UK Tradespeople
Whether you’re a self-employed plumber, an electrician with a small crew, or a building contractor juggling multiple projects, running a trade business means balancing busy days on-site with endless admin after hours. Keeping track of invoices, staying VAT compliant, filing CIS returns, and managing payroll can quickly become overwhelming.
At Pro AccX, we provide specialist accounting services for tradespeople across the UK, designed to save you time, reduce your tax bill, and keep you compliant with HMRC, all without taking you away from the tools.
Why Tradespeople Need Specialist Accounting
The construction and trade sectors come with unique accounting challenges that generic accountants may not fully understand:
- CIS Deductions — Ensuring subcontractors are paid correctly while meeting HMRC reporting deadlines.
- VAT in the Trade Sector — Navigating the complexities of materials vs. labour VAT rates and domestic reverse charge VAT rules.
- Expense Claims — Accurately recording tool purchases, vehicle mileage, protective clothing, and other allowable expenses.
- Irregular Income — Managing fluctuating payments from multiple jobs and customers.
- Payroll for Small Teams — Paying staff and apprentices correctly while handling pensions and RTI submissions.
Get any of these wrong, and you risk penalties, cash flow issues, and overpaying tax.

We work with tradespeople at every stage:
- Self-employed sole traders — From plumbers to decorators, we help you keep your books in order.
- Limited company contractors — Ensuring compliance, tax efficiency, and timely filings.
