Construction

Expert accounting services tailored
to construction and property businesses

We specialise in accounting for businesses operating within the construction and property sectors.

Assembling an effective finance team is a challenge.

Any growing construction business will require access to a bookkeeper, management accountant, credit controller, payroll administrator and finance director. Many of these would only be required on a part-time basis. Recruiting for all these roles are time consuming and costly. That’s before you factor in training. Working with the SAS Virtual Finance Team gives you all of the above and more, for a monthly fee that will often cost less than a single full time employee. And as you grow, our service will grow with you.

To say we know the construction industry is an understatement

With a combined experience in excess of 50 years, we are perfectly placed to help clients navigate their way through what is one of the toughest sectors to operate in.

Our senior team currently hold various Finance Director roles within successful construction businesses, acting as trusted advisors. In an industry that presents its own unique challenges, such as the intricacies of CIS, aggressive payment practices and retentions held by main contractors, it really is vital to work with accountants that truly understand the sector. We are expert CIS accountants ready to assist with the special tax rules for subcontractors and contractor payment handling.

Utilising our extensive network of contacts to unlock value

Working predominantly with subcontractors, we appreciate the funding requirements that are necessary to be able to profitably service contracts. With our extensive network of contacts at specialist construction lenders, clients often turn to us to help unlock valuable working capital.

In an industry where projects can take years to complete, we ensure that clients have appropriate systems in place to accurately record and track project costs to measure profitability throughout the job. Additionally, we will help implement adequate financial controls, to ensure returns are maximised.

Spotting innovation to unlock generous tax incentives

Traditionally, innovation often goes unnoticed within the construction sector, however, our detailed knowledge of clients’ operations and a solid understanding of the Research & Development claims process has helped clients unlock huge amounts of cash from this generous tax incentive. On more than one occasion the potential for an R&D claim has been the difference between projects being profitable and not.

7 tips to help improve your cashflow

We’ve worked with SAS for several years now and their service has been exceptional. They have assisted with resolving a historical and complex VAT enquiry, securing affordable funding, accessing tax reliefs, implementing efficient processes, and providing timely management reporting. Their specialist construction knowledge and ability to find solutions have been invaluable in enabling us to confidently grow the business.
