CIS Tax Made Simple for Oldham’s Trades

Oldham keeps a lot of trades busy as the town reinvents itself. The town-centre regeneration and the tram-linked redevelopment, the steady programme of mill conversions and new housing across OL1 to OL9, and the everyday flow of extensions and refurbishments give joiners, roofers, electricians and plasterers no shortage of work — and many Oldham subbies run into Manchester and across Greater Manchester for the bigger jobs. Under CIS, 20% (or 30% unverified) comes off every payment up front, so the typical Oldham trade ends the year owed a refund.

We handle CIS end to end for Oldham trades: same-day refund filing, monthly CIS300 returns for contractors, HMRC verification, gross payment status applications, and a Self-Assessment with every allowable cost captured. Fixed monthly fee, filed from 6 April so you are not stuck behind the January queue.

💡 As an HMRC-registered agent, we deal with HMRC directly on your behalf — filing monthly returns, processing refund claims and handling verifications. Same-day filing available from 6 April for the fastest refund.

What We Handle

A Complete CIS Service for Oldham Subcontractors & Contractors

📋

Same-Day CIS Refund Filing

Self-Assessment filed within 24–48 hours of 6 April with every legitimate expense captured. HMRC refunds typically arrive 4–6 weeks later.

🏗️

Monthly Contractor Returns (CIS300)

Full monthly CIS300 returns filed direct to HMRC for Oldham contractors paying subcontractors. Verification handled, deduction statements produced, late-filing penalties avoided.

Subcontractor Verification

We verify your subcontractors with HMRC before you pay them, so the correct rate — gross, 20% or 30% — is applied from the very first payment.

Gross Payment Status

For established Oldham subcontractors who pass the turnover, compliance and business tests, we prepare and submit gross payment status applications so you are paid without deduction.

📱

Receipt Capture & Bookkeeping

A simple phone app logs tools, fuel, materials, PPE and CSCS renewals as you go — so nothing is lost and nothing is a scramble next April.

🚨

Late Returns & Penalties

Behind on Self-Assessment or CIS returns? We bring you current and put your case to HMRC, asking for penalty reductions where there is a reasonable excuse.

Owed a CIS Refund From an Earlier Year?

Refund claims can be made for up to four previous tax years. Plenty of Oldham subcontractors are sitting on several years' worth without realising it. Book a free call and we'll scope out exactly what's recoverable.

Worked Example

How a typical Oldham CIS refund is built

Take a self-employed roofer working pitched and flat jobs across the borough plus the odd mill conversion. He invoices about £34,000 gross, with roughly £6,800 deducted under CIS before he is paid, and no one ever reviewed what he spent to earn it.

Properly captured: mileage across Oldham and into Manchester, ladders and a new nail gun, harness and PPE, his CSCS card and a working-at-height refresher, felt and materials he bought himself, work clothing, and the business share of his phone. Against £6,800 of deductions that base typically returns a solid four-figure refund, filed in April.

This is an illustrative example to show how a claim is built — your own figures depend entirely on your earnings, deductions and expenses, and we confirm them with you before anything is filed.

CIS Questions, Answered

Common CIS Questions from Oldham Trades

How big a CIS refund can an Oldham subcontractor expect?
It depends on your gross earnings, the deductions taken and your costs — van, tools, PPE, CSCS, materials, phone and mileage. An Oldham trade travelling into Manchester with a real tool spend usually lands a meaningful four-figure refund; a quieter year is less. We claim the full amount you are owed from your actual records.
How soon can you file my refund after 6 April?
If your records are ready we file within 24–48 hours of the 6 April year-end, and HMRC usually pays out within 4–6 weeks. Filing in April rather than waiting until January means the money reaches your account months sooner — a real difference when work is quiet over the winter.
I work across Oldham and into Manchester — how does mileage work?
Travel between sites and to temporary workplaces is claimable at 55p per mile for the first 10,000 business miles and 25p after that, or actual running costs. Home to a single permanent workplace is the only excluded trip, which rarely fits construction. We keep the log tidy for HMRC.
What can I actually claim as a Oldham subcontractor?
Every genuine business cost: van and fuel (the 55p-per-mile simplified rate for the first 10,000 business miles, or actual running costs), tools and plant, PPE and work clothing, CSCS card and training, materials you buy yourself, the business share of your phone, accountancy fees, and a fair home-office proportion for quoting and admin. We make sure none of it slips through.
I pay subcontractors myself — which returns do I file?
As a contractor you file a monthly CIS300 return by the 19th, showing what you paid each subcontractor and what you deducted, and you must verify every subbie with HMRC before paying them. We handle the verifications, the monthly returns and the deduction statements inside the fixed monthly fee, so you're never caught out by a £100 late-filing penalty.
I'm two or three years behind on my returns — am I in trouble?
It's very fixable. File as soon as you can: HMRC penalties start at £100 and build, but you can still reclaim refunds for up to four prior years, which often more than cancels out the penalties. We regularly bring Oldham subcontractors back up to date across several years at once and argue your corner with HMRC on any charges.
