EXCELLENT Based on 110 reviews Posted on Phaethon17/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Paul! You put to rest 8 months of headache and back and forth emails with my past employers, and seemingly impossible P45 issues.Posted on michaela longden02/05/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What can I say? Paul has been an absolute lifesaver. After making the mistake of investing in the wrong accountant during my first year as a limited company, I felt overwhelmed and under-supported, until I found Paul. From our very first call, he gave me so much valuable, actionable information that I instantly knew I wanted to work with him. Paul consistently goes above and beyond. His knowledge is exceptional, his passion for what he does is evident, and his communication is always clear, timely, and supportive. I never feel like I’m navigating this alone. He answers every question, no matter how big or small, and regularly arranges check-ins that genuinely support both me and my business. When you're starting a company, it can be scary. You need someone who truly cares and knows what they’re doing and that’s exactly what I found in Paul. Choosing him and his team has been one of the best business decisions I’ve ever made. Thank you for everything. I cannot recommend you highly enough.Posted on Neil Tarbuck25/03/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Spoke to Paul over the phone regarding advice for self-assessment over my capital gains payment. He gave me the confidence to fill out the application form and make the payment myself; now A&C will be my first choice for any tax/accountancy problem in the future. Highly recommendPosted on Brody Gibson12/02/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. A&C Chartered Accountants were very helpful, Steph helped massively. Will be deefinitely using them again in the future.Posted on Maria04/02/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. On Jan 28th this year, I checked into my HMRC account to fill in my self assessment as usual where I found out that I owe HMRC 12000 pounds! This was a big surprise to me and I had no idea what was going on. I desperately called different accounting firms to help me, however as you can imagine, all firms were fully booked and no one had time before the 31st Jan deadline. After checking several firms, I called A&C as one of the firms popping up in my google search and Paul was very kind to help me. He used an app, connected to my laptop, went through my P60 and P45 and quickly making the calculation. As it turned out, my employer made a mistake and used a wrong tax code and hence I was actually owing HMRC the money. He was highly efficient and knowledgable, went above and beyond to help me and didn't even charge me for the time he spent on the phone with me. I highly recommend their service and would definitely use them in future, whenever I need help with tax or accounting.Posted on Tom28/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been with this team for about 6 months now. I moved to A&C from a large accountancy group who just gave me no time. I would honestly say that the advice and support I have received here has led to my small business growing faster than expected. Brilliant value for money. Very glad I changed. Highly recommendPosted on Louise & Paul FG28/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having never had a Personal Accountant or Tax advisor, I met (in person) with the team at A&C to discuss 3 things which I needed advice on - and to see if they could help. During the 45 minutes we went through my points, but A&C ended up advising me I could achieve most of these things myself (rather than pay a service). They provided some advice on where to look, and I was thankful for their honesty and openness! Would recommend to anyone who doesn't know if they need professional support or not, A&C will advise you the best path to follow.Posted on Jack23/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul is incredible. I received a surprise penalty from the HMRC and this was my first time working with an accountant and couldn't have been any happier with Paul. He took his time to understand the problem over the phone, connected to my computer to look at my accounts and within less than 15 minutes had identified the issue and made really sound recommendations. I'll certainly be using Paul moving forward, highly recommend.Posted on Rebecca Johnston20/09/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul has been very helpful especially as this is my first time ever dealing with accountants very informative and efficient. Thank you!Posted on Lewis Pierce05/04/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Paul was extremely helpful. He gave me solid advice for all of my queries. I would highly recommend if you want professional and personable solutions to any of your business needs. Thank you for your help Paul; I’m excited to work with you again in the very near future.
As an electrician, we’re sure you’ll agree that life can be busy. Whether you work on residential homes or commercial projects, each day is filled from start to finish – and you’re exhausted afterwards.
Between the daily grind, emergency callouts, and quoting for new jobs, there’s little to no time for important admin. Simply keeping on top of your accounts and expenses can be a real issue – especially when you have to chase payments, handle cash, work with various suppliers, and pay apprentices or staff.
Our accounting services are specifically designed with electricians and other tradespeople in mind. We provide you with a fully optimised, accounting setup (often using Xero or another online accounting platform), which we can manage on your behalf for a fixed-fee. The idea is to free up your time while giving you peace of mind that your financial information is being recorded accurately and in compliance with tax regulations.
After all, the last thing you need as a busy professional is HMRC breathing down your neck. But, if they do ever raise a query or start an investigation, we’ll be there to support you through it.
Our accounting services for electricians include:
You know electrical work inside out – wiring, circuits, and keeping the power flowing. But when it comes to balancing the books, our 30 years of experience comes in handy.
You take pride in offering a personal, friendly service to your customers, and so do we. We're a family-run firm that builds long-term, lasting relationships.
Other electricians trust us to keep their finances in check, and you can too. Check out our reviews to see why so many individuals and businesses rely on us.

“I searched a lot for a reliable accountant and read countless reviews online. In the end, I chose A&C and my choice and vote of confidence was confirmed!
They reply always within a few hours (if not straight away!), regardless of how small and simple my query or issue might be. I was completely clueless when I set up my Ltd as to UK tax laws and system. Paul and Chloe showed patience and were EXTREMELY helpful from the start, setting up my whole account and sufficiently explaining everything. I feel confident in my steps forward with them. I have already started recommending them to fellow contractors.”
