Everything a Somerset Business Needs, Under One Roof

Annual Accounts

Your statutory accounts prepared accurately and filed on time with Companies House and HMRC — with a plain-English summary you'll actually understand. We work with owner-managed businesses across Taunton, Wellington, and Bridgwater, translating your numbers into insights that help you make better decisions in the year ahead. We handle the filing deadlines so you never face a late penalty.

  • Companies House filing
  • HMRC corporation tax return
  • plain-English profit summary
  • deadline management

Self Assessment

Self assessment tax returns for sole traders, directors, landlords, and higher-rate taxpayers across Somerset. We identify every allowable expense and relief you're entitled to — many clients find we save them more than our fee in the first year alone. Returns are completed and submitted to HMRC well ahead of the 31 January deadline, and we walk you through exactly what you owe and why.

  • Income tax calculation
  • allowable expense review
  • HMRC submission
  • payment on account planning

VAT and Bookkeeping

Accurate, MTD-compliant VAT returns and day-to-day bookkeeping that keeps your records clean all year round — not just at year end. Fenwick & Moore use cloud accounting software including Xero and QuickBooks, giving you a real-time view of your cash position from anywhere. We handle quarterly VAT submissions and reconcile your accounts monthly so there are no nasty surprises when your accountant calls.

  • MTD-compliant VAT returns
  • monthly reconciliation
  • Xero and QuickBooks setup
  • cash flow visibility

Payroll

We run payroll for owner-managed businesses throughout Taunton and the surrounding Somerset towns — from single-director companies to growing teams of 20 or more. Every payroll run includes RTI submissions to HMRC, payslip production, and pension auto-enrolment compliance. Pay your staff on time, every time, with none of the administrative burden falling on you.

  • RTI submissions to HMRC
  • payslip production
  • auto-enrolment compliance
  • P60 and P11D preparation
