CIS Accountant in Croydon
Croydon has one of south London's most active construction trade communities, anchored by the long-running Whitgift Centre regeneration plans, the substantial residential tower construction across central Croydon, the ongoing Westfield Croydon planning pipeline, the substantial commercial fit-out trade across the central business district (one of the largest commercial cluster outside Central London), and the steady stream of residential extensions and loft conversions across CR0, CR1 and CR2. The Construction Industry Scheme is one of the most common reasons Croydon subcontractors overpay tax every year. Main contractors deduct 20 per cent (or 30 per cent if you are not verified) from every payment they make to you, regardless of your actual expenses or final tax position. By the end of the tax year the deductions have usually overshot your real tax liability by a significant margin, and a properly-prepared Self-Assessment unlocks a refund of typically £1,500 to £5,000 for most Croydon subcontractors.

📅 Get Your Free Backdated CIS ReviewReal Client Story
Client N is a self-employed electrician based in Croydon, working through CIS for several main contractors on central Croydon residential towers, commercial fit-outs across CR0 and refurbishment projects across CR1 and CR2 and into Surrey. When he came to us his NICEIC registration was current but his expense records were essentially a folder of receipts in his van, his previous accountant had been filing a basic Self-Assessment without actively reviewing his electrical-specific equipment claims and his CIS deductions over the year had totalled around £7,650 against gross earnings of £38,250.
We rebuilt his records for the year and captured every legitimate expense: van and fuel costs across multiple sites, electrical tools and test equipment (including his calibrated MFT recertification and a new EV charger commissioning tester mid-year), PPE and arc-flash clothing, his NICEIC registration and scheme fees, 18th Edition wiring regulations training, EV charging point installation course, his CSCS card renewal at Gold Card level, mobile and admin costs, work clothing, materials he had purchased himself, and a reasonable home-office proportion. We also moved him onto a simple receipt-capture app for going forward.
Outcome: CIS refund of £5,100, filed within 9 days of the 6 April tax year end and received from HMRC five weeks later. Client N now has a system that captures receipts as they happen and gives him a clear running view of his refund position throughout the year.
