Accounts, tax and business support for people who work on site, on the road and in the workshop. We’re part of Buzz Accounting, supporting sole traders and limited companies across the UK.
Whether you work directly for homeowners, supply other businesses or run a team across several jobs, we’ll get to know how you work and agree the accounting support that fits.
Keep your accounts, tax returns, bookkeeping and payroll organised. When you want to grow, understand your margins or plan your cash flow, our wider Buzz team can help with management accounts, advice and coaching.
You don’t need to be registered for CIS to work with us. For businesses that are, specialist CIS support is available alongside your other services.

Buzz was started by two people who got tired of the profession's worst habits — the jargon, the once-a-year silence, the surprise bills. It is a bigger team than that now, and the people below are the ones who do the work.
Co-founder
Andy is an entrepreneur and operator who has spent his career building better professional-services businesses that run on strong systems and plain-speaking advice, with no billable-hour meters and no jargon. He co-founded Buzz and drove its expansion into an international group spanning the UK and South Africa.
Co-founder & Finance Director
Peter is a seasoned accounting professional with more than 20 years' experience. He built and grew his own accountancy firm organically — client by client, referral by referral — to a substantial recurring fee base, so he knows from running it what business owners need from their accountant. As Buzz's co-founder and Finance Director he sets the quality bar for the group's financial work.
The people who prepare and review the work — the accounts, the tax returns, the CIS and the management figures. Every job is prepared by one of them and reviewed before it goes out.
Senior Accountant
Candice is one of the senior accountants in the production team. She reviews and delivers client accounts and tax work, and makes sure what goes out is right first time.
Senior Accountant
Jolandi is a senior accountant in the production team, taking year-end accounts and tax work from a pile of records through to review-ready.
Semi-Senior Accountant
Rochelle prepares accounts, tax returns and management figures for a broad mix of owner-managed businesses, working closely with the senior team.
Semi-Senior Accountant
Mary works across accounts preparation and tax, and is often the person keeping the detail straight on the day-to-day client work.
