In short

Fernside Accounting works with four main client types: sole traders & freelancers (self-assessment, MTD ITSA, basic bookkeeping), micro limited companies (under £100k turnover, year-end accounts, VAT, dividend planning), landlords (rental property tax, MTD ITSA from April 2026, CGT on disposal), and construction subcontractors (CIS, reverse-charge VAT, limited company setup).

We deliberately don't try to be everything to everyone. Larger or more complex businesses — international structures, group accounts, R&D claims, M&A — go to our sister firm The Tax Lead. The handover between firms is seamless when complexity grows.
