Accountants in Altrincham
Trafford accountants for Altrincham businesses.
Altrincham has changed enormously — the market has pulled in a wave of independent food, drink and retail businesses, and the town has kept its long-standing base of professional services, consultancies and owner-managed companies around Stamford New Road and Broadheath.
Both need very different things from an accountant. Hospitality needs the VAT, the payroll and the weekly cash position kept tight. Consultancies and small limited companies need someone who gets the salary-versus-dividend question right and keeps the personal and company tax working together.
We do both, on fixed monthly fees, from our office at 76 Gloucester Road in Urmston — the same borough, about fifteen minutes up the road, and without the fees you’d pay a firm with a Hale postcode.

Why do Altrincham small businesses love Premier Accounts?
With our expert small business accountants on your team, managing your business finances is ‘taken care of’.
Altrincham businesses tend to be either hospitality and retail with tight margins and a lot of moving parts, or professional and consultancy work where the tax planning is worth more than the compliance. What both have in common is owners who don’t have time to chase their accountant.
We keep the bookkeeping current through Xero rather than in an annual catch-up, tell you where you actually stand month to month, and get back to you the same working day. Fees are agreed up front and spread monthly, so cash flow is predictable.
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.

Altrincham accountants
Questions we get asked a lot.
Are you based in Altrincham?
We’re in the same borough — our office is at 76 Gloucester Road in Urmston, about fifteen minutes from Altrincham up the A56. You’re welcome to come in, though many of our Altrincham clients deal with us entirely through Xero, email and the phone.
How much does an accountant in Altrincham 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 work with cafes, bars and restaurants?
Yes. Hospitality has its own set of headaches — tips and troncs, split VAT rates, high staff turnover on payroll, and weekly rather than monthly cash flow. We’ll get the till and card takings feeding into Xero automatically so the bookkeeping keeps itself current, and give you a proper read on gross margin rather than a set of accounts nine months after the event.
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.
