CIS, reverse charge, retentions. Handled.

Construction is where generalist accountants make expensive mistakes: CIS deductions missed or misapplied, domestic reverse charge VAT invoiced wrong, retentions forgotten until they expire, and project profit invisible until the job is over. We run construction books daily-rate deep: every subcontractor verified, every deduction filed, every retention tracked to its release date.

What we take off your desk.

CIS, end to end

Subcontractor verification, correct deduction rates, monthly CIS300 returns filed, and deduction statements issued automatically.

Domestic reverse charge VAT

Invoices worded and coded correctly both ways, so you neither overcharge customers nor underpay HMRC.

Retentions and applications

Applications for payment, certified values and retentions tracked by contract, with release dates diarised.

Project profitability

Costs coded to jobs as they land, so you see margin per project while you can still act on it.

Construction: what owners ask us.

We use subcontractors and get CIS deducted ourselves. Both sides covered?

Yes, contractor and subcontractor CIS both: your CIS300 filings, your deduction statements, and reclaiming what’s been deducted from you through payroll or the CT return.

Which software do you work in?

Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and the usual construction add-ons. If you’re on spreadsheets, we’ll move you over without losing history.

Can you catch up a backlog before our year-end?

Yes. Catch-up bookkeeping is quoted as a one-off; backlogs of a year or more are routine.

Site crews with weekly pay?

Weekly payroll runs with RTI on or before payday, CIS and PAYE kept straight for mixed crews.

UK registered, UK accountable

Your contract is with Punchhole Solutions Limited, a UK company (no. 14414905), with senior review before every filing.

India-powered pricing

Our India back office does the daily work, the same model the Big Four use, so weekly bookkeeping costs what quarterly used to.

Reliability you can check

Filings months early, deadline calendars a quarter ahead, 2,000+ returns filed. One named person who answers the same day.

Thirty minutes. One fixed number.
