Bookkeeping & Tax Support for Tradespeople
Helping busy trades stay organised, compliant, and confident about their numbers
At Barleyfields, we support sole traders and small businesses in the trades including builders, electricians, plumbers, joiners, decorators, and property maintenance professionals with clear, dependable bookkeeping and tax services.
​
We understand the trades, not just because we work with clients in the industry every day, but because we’re part of that world too. We’ve run a chimney sweeping business ourselves, my husband still does, and our daughter works in construction as a site manager. Even our son is training to become an electrician. So we know the early starts, the long days, the handwritten invoices and how paperwork often comes last.
​​
Whether you’re just getting started or need help catching up, we’ll help you get everything sorted and keep it that way.
