What I actually do

Bookkeeping, explained like a normal person

No accountant-speak. Here's what comes off your plate when you hand your books to Tally Up.

Receipts, sorted

Snap a photo of every receipt and job invoice as you go, ping it over, and I’ll log it. By the end of the month you’ll know exactly what you’ve earned and spent. No shoebox of paper in the van.

VAT returns, done for you

I work out what you owe, file your VAT return with HMRC on time, every time, and give you a nudge before deadlines sneak up. You just pay the bill and get on with the job.

Making Tax Digital, handled

HMRC now wants records kept digitally and returns sent through approved software. I’ll set you up with easy-to-use software, keep it up to date for you, and explain everything in plain English.
