What kind of accounting services do you provide?
We offer a one stop shop for all accounting, bookkeeping, tax and business advisory services to trades and construction companies.
Accounting in construction is a unique form of bookkeeping and financial management. Our systems are designed to help contractors track each job and how it affects the company as a whole. While construction accounting draws on all the same basic principles of general accounting, it also has several important and distinct features. Understanding these is crucial for running a successful construction business.
Why is it so important for businesses to hire a great accountant?
A great accountant will offer the flexibility needed to meet the needs of individual owners, whether it is on a full or part time basis, steering the business towards success and financial stability.
Every business, large or small, needs to hire an accountant to protect the financial integrity of the organisation. Many business owners think that with the assistance of useful software such as Xero or QuickBooks they can personally handle the accounting, and truth be told, that is the biggest mistake a business owner can make.
When business owners decide not to hire an accountant they are usually motivated by the savings they think they will achieve, but fact of the matter is a good accountant can be one of the most worthwhile investments made in the business, and is there to advise and assist business owners saving the company money.
What do you love most about your job?
I love being a part of something larger that makes a difference. I love that everyone cares and that you have flexibility when needed. I love the variety. Every day is different and I get to interact with such a varied groups/people. It means I am always learning.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I wanted to improve the lives of others.
There were a lot of factors that led to me creating my business, but the driving force was my passion for improving people’s lives. I felt that I had the tools necessary to make change happen and to empower others to do so as well, and I didn’t see a reason why it shouldn’t be me.

Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
All our services can be provided online and remotely.
We use a real time information system, which means we can help you with important business advice throughout the year. Our Cloud Accounting solution offers a range of packages so you can choose the level of support that is best for you. This is one of the features our clients find most valuable.
By using an industry-leading cloud accounting system you get instant access to the information you really need in real time. So you will be in complete control of your numbers and your business. Here are just some of the many benefits:
1. 24/7 access to up-to-date financial information and reports from any device with an internet connection (you can access your numbers with your smartphone or tablet).
2. Up to date - Real time accounting means your records are always completely up to date making it easier for you to make the right decisions.
3. Business support - Since we can access your data 24/7 you get more value from us – we can help you run and grow your business rather than
just add up the numbers. We can support you with your key decisions.
4. Easier invoicing - Fast, simple customised sales invoicing will make your life simpler. And the facility for emailing of invoices, with the option to attach a statement at the same time makes it so easy to manage your sales and get paid quicker.
Note: If you do not have a real time information system our Cloud Accounting Set Up service will get you set up.
Accounts & Tax
It’s time to feel secure about your tax issues as the UK tax system becomes even more complicated. The personal tax service provided by CAPO Digital Accounting leverages industry-leading technology to help you get the high-quality, personalised tax guidance you require at a cost you can afford. You can get assistance with all facets of commercial, personal, and family tax matters.
Bookkeeping & Payroll
We understand that time is precious especially if you’re a sole trader or growing small business juggling numerous tasks simultaneously on a daily basis. From experience, we know that it can be a challenge keeping your financial records up to date when you’re tied up making sales, dealing with customers, and on other administrative tasks.
For many businesses, using a bookkeeper frees up valuable time and resources while offering peace of mind that your accounts are up-to-date and to the level of detail required by HMRC.
Hiring a bookkeeper offers other significant benefits too including:
keeping track of sales, purchases, receipts and payments
reviewing and improving your businesses’ financial processes
organising and storing your information in general ledgers
At CAPO, we offer expert bookkeeping, secretarial services to ensure your business operates as efficiently as possible as well as providing support to help you overcome any unexpected financial events which occur.
Business Development
As any business grows, it often stays attached to the ways of working it embraced during its earlier development and expansion.
While, in many areas of a business, many of those ways of working remains profitable and productive, the efficiency and profitability of a company eventually reduces because, in some departments and with some established working methods, the old ways don’t perform as well anymore.
Business development services practitioners, like those at Black and White and our service partners, identify areas for financial and operational improvement with you and then help you manage the process of change until the end goal is reached.
Profit Planning
Whether your business is run from your dining room table, a small office, or a large manufacturing plant, you should be using profit planning. A profit plan not only looks at how your business will earn a profit today but also creates a plan for future profits. This is a crucial activity that only the best accountants will undertake.
Profit planning doesn’t have to be complicated, but it does need to be put into writing and carried out accordingly. Profit planning helps you set business goals while creating a plan for reaching those goals. The profit plan for a small business will initially be very simple but will grow in complexity as the business grows.
