Barnett and Co provides accounting, tax, payroll and bookkeeping services to limited companies, contractors, freelancers and small businesses in and around Congleton.
Congleton has a healthy mix of established manufacturing and engineering businesses, a growing professional services sector, a strong base of independent retailers and trades, and an increasing number of remote-working consultants and contractors. We support clients at every stage of growth from solo founders to multi-employee limited companies.
Our Congleton clients value the same things our Crewe and Cheshire clients value. Clear fixed pricing, proactive year-round advice, modern cloud accounting and same-day responses from real accountants who actually know your business. We are easy to reach, easy to switch to and easy to work with, whether you are setting up your first limited company or running an established Congleton business with payroll for ten or twenty staff.
Manufacturing and engineering businesses in Congleton often have particular accounting considerations including capital allowances on plant and machinery, R&D tax relief on product development, stock valuation, complex VAT positions and apprenticeship levy planning where headcount is significant. Our experience working with these sectors means we can help structure things tax-efficiently and identify reliefs that are often missed.
We provide a full suite of accounting, tax and advisory services to clients in Congleton. Every service is delivered for a fixed monthly fee, with same-day responses during business hours and no charges for routine questions or quick check-ins. Our most commonly requested services include the following.
We are not a faceless national firm and we are not a part-time bookkeeper working evenings. Barnett and Co is a properly accredited modern accountancy practice based in Crewe, serving owner-managed businesses across Cheshire and Greater Manchester. Clients in Congleton choose us because we combine genuine technical expertise with modern, responsive service.
Switching accountants is far easier than most Congleton business owners expect. The entire process is managed by us, takes around two weeks and is included free of charge with every new client engagement.
Our office is located at Electra House, Electra Way in Crewe, just a short journey from Congleton. We are equally happy to meet clients in person, hold video calls or work entirely by email and phone. Most of our day-to-day client work is delivered through secure online portals, which means you can manage your accounting from anywhere, at any time.
