Accountants in Stretford
Your actual local accountants.
We’re about two miles from Stretford. Our office is on Gloucester Road in Urmston, which makes us a genuinely local firm for Stretford businesses rather than a national outfit with a Manchester phone number and a call centre somewhere else.
We look after the sort of businesses Stretford is full of — trades and contractors working out of Trafford Park, small manufacturers and distributors on the industrial estates, independent shops and takeaways around the Mall and Chester Road, and the growing number of consultants and freelancers working from home around Firswood and Gorse Hill.
Fixed monthly fees, a named accountant who knows your business, and a five-minute drive if you’d rather have the conversation in person.

Why do Stretford small businesses love Premier Accounts?
With our expert small business accountants on your team, managing your business finances is ‘taken care of’.
Stretford sits right next to Trafford Park, so a good share of the businesses here are trades, logistics, engineering and contracting — work where CIS deductions, subcontractor VAT, vans, fuel and plant all need handling properly, and where cash flow arrives in lumps rather than evenly.
That’s bread-and-butter work for us. We’ll sort the CIS, get the VAT scheme right, keep the bookkeeping current so you’re never guessing what you can afford to take out, and flag problems while they’re still cheap to fix.
You get a named accountant who knows your business — not a call centre, and not a different person every time you ring. Fees are agreed in advance and spread monthly, so you always know what you’re paying and you’re never charged for picking up the phone.
What it costs to switch
Nothing. We’ll have a free, no-obligation chat about the business, tell you what we’d do and quote you a fixed monthly fee before you commit to anything.
If you’re moving from another accountant, you send them one short email and we handle the professional clearance, the records request and the HMRC authorisations from there.

Questions we get asked a lot.
How close are you to Stretford?
Two miles. We’re at 76 Gloucester Road in Urmston, so most Stretford clients can be here in under ten minutes. You’re welcome to come in for a coffee and go through things properly — or do everything remotely through Xero if that suits you better.
How much does an accountant in Stretford cost?
We quote a fixed monthly fee based on what your business actually needs — the number of transactions, whether you’re VAT registered, whether you run payroll, and how much of the bookkeeping you want to keep in-house. You’ll know the figure before you commit, it’s spread monthly rather than landing as one bill, and you’re never charged extra for ringing us with a question.
Can you take over from my current accountant?
Yes, and it’s far less hassle than people expect. You send a short email telling them you’re moving, we write for professional clearance and your records, and we handle the rest. We’ll check what’s outstanding with Companies House and HMRC before anything transfers, so nothing gets missed in the changeover.
Do you deal with CIS and subcontractors?
Yes, and a lot of it — Trafford Park and the surrounding trade means CIS comes up constantly. We handle contractor and subcontractor returns, monthly CIS statements, reclaiming deductions through payroll or the tax return, and the domestic reverse charge on construction VAT, which still catches people out.
Are you set up for Making Tax Digital?
Yes. We’re Xero Certified Partners and our clients file digitally. If you’re still on spreadsheets or paper we’ll move you across and do the setup for you, so Making Tax Digital for VAT and for Income Tax are handled without you having to think about it.
