Sound familiar?
Still doing your own tax return at midnight in January?
It is a common situation. The books get pushed back during busier months, the Self Assessment deadline creeps up, and suddenly you are reconciling a year’s worth of receipts in one sitting. Add to that the nagging uncertainty about whether you have claimed everything you are entitled to, and it is not a particularly enjoyable way to run a business.
- Self Assessment filed in a hurry, with little confidence it is right
- No clear idea what the tax bill will be until the return is done
- Expenses claimed by guesswork rather than by someone who actually knows the rules
What sorted looks like
With the right accountant, the Self Assessment is prepared methodically throughout the year, not assembled in a panic. Your tax position is visible well before any deadline, and every allowable expense is identified and correctly claimed.
- Self Assessment prepared carefully, filed on time, with you in the loop throughout
- Your estimated tax bill calculated early, so there are no late surprises
- Allowable expenses reviewed properly by someone who knows your trade
- Fixed-fee pricing — you know the cost before any work begins

Everything a sole trader in Buckland needs
Core compliance handled, tax planned properly, and books kept in order — all on a clear, fixed-fee basis with no unexpected extras.
Self Assessment and Personal Tax
Your SA100 return is prepared accurately and filed well ahead of the January deadline. Allowable expenses are reviewed in full, and you will know your tax liability before it becomes due — giving you time to plan rather than react.
Included as standardBookkeeping and Cloud Accounting
Monthly bookkeeping using Xero or QuickBooks Online keeps your records current throughout the year. If your books have fallen behind, catch-up work is quoted separately and clearly before anything begins.
Monthly or catch-upVAT Returns and MTD Compliance
If you are VAT-registered or approaching the threshold, quarterly returns and Making Tax Digital submissions are handled on time and without you needing to log into HMRC. Your VAT position is monitored so a registration obligation does not catch you off guard.
Where applicableConsistently good results for small businesses
From cleaning businesses to contractors, Supreme Consulting works with sole traders across Hampshire who need an accountant they can actually talk to.

What makes the difference for sole traders
There is no shortage of accountants. These are the reasons sole traders in Buckland tend to stay.
Over 20 years working with small businesses
Supreme Consulting has been advising sole traders, freelancers, and contractors since 2005. That is two decades of Self Assessments, VAT registrations, and tax planning conversations. The questions you have almost certainly come up before, and there is a straight answer ready.
Fixed fees, quoted before work starts
Every piece of work is priced upfront. There are no hourly rates accumulating in the background, and no invoice that arrives larger than expected. You know what you are paying before you agree to anything.
Questions answered the day you ask them
The standard response time is one working day. For sole traders who have a quick question about an expense or an unexpected letter from HMRC, that tends to matter considerably more than any software feature.
Up and running in four straightforward steps
Switching accountants takes less effort than most people expect. Here is how it works from first contact to everything running properly.
A short discovery call
A no-obligation conversation to understand your business, your current setup, and what you actually need. No preparation required on your part — just a straightforward chat about where things stand.
A clear, fixed-fee proposal
You receive a written proposal covering exactly what is included, the fixed fee, and the timeline. Nothing vague, nothing open-ended. You decide whether to proceed at your own pace.
Onboarding and cloud setup
The transition is handled on our side. Records are migrated to the cloud, integrations are set up, and any catch-up work is scoped and agreed. The amount you need to do is kept to a minimum.
Your books in order, ongoing
From here, compliance runs as it should — bookkeeping current, deadlines met, and your tax position visible throughout the year. You spend your time on the business, not on paperwork.
“Stuart is a thorough efficient worker who produces good quality results at a reasonable price.”
Things sole traders in Buckland usually ask
Do you specialise in sole trader accounts, or is it just one of many things you do?
Sole traders, freelancers, and owner-managed businesses make up the majority of the client base. Self Assessment preparation, allowable expenses, Class 2 and Class 4 National Insurance, and the practical questions that come with running a small business — these are handled regularly, not occasionally. You will not need to spend the first meeting explaining how sole trader tax works.
What does it cost and what is included?
Sole trader pricing is fixed and quoted upfront based on your specific circumstances — the complexity of your income, whether VAT applies, and whether ongoing bookkeeping is required. The quote covers everything agreed and nothing else. There are no hourly rates and no invoices that arrive larger than expected. Indicative package tiers will be published on the pricing page shortly.
My books are behind. Is that a problem?
It is a common starting point. Catch-up bookkeeping is quoted as a separate, fixed piece of work before anything begins — so you know the cost upfront. Once the records are current, the ongoing service keeps them that way. Arriving with books in some state of disarray is not unusual; it is what the onboarding process is designed to handle.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. There is no minimum term and no penalty for leaving. If it is not the right fit after three months, you leave with clean, up-to-date records and nothing owed. Most clients stay because the service works, not because they are locked in.
I also have some rental income alongside my self-employment. Can you handle both?
Yes. Rental income and self-employment income are both reported on the SA100, and the interaction between the two — particularly around allowable expenses, mortgage interest relief, and the overall tax calculation — is something the firm handles regularly. Both income streams will be covered within the same return.
How far in advance will I know what my tax bill is going to be?
The aim is for you to have a reliable estimate of your tax liability well before the January payment deadline — typically by the autumn following the end of the tax year. That gives you time to set money aside or adjust your position rather than finding out at the last moment.
Leave the tax admin behind. Focus on your work.
A no-obligation call to understand your situation, followed by a fixed-fee quote. No pressure, no jargon, and no surprises on the invoice.
