07450 258 975Where in Essex is LOYALS based?
We have a base around Wickford and Basildon in mid Essex, alongside our main chartered accountancy office in King's Cross, London. So Essex clients get a local point of contact plus the backing of a full London practice.
That mid-Essex base puts us close to Basildon, Wickford, Billericay, Pitsea and Rayleigh, within easy reach of Chelmsford to the north, Southend and the coast to the east, and Brentwood and the M25 edge to the west. We meet Essex clients in person by appointment, with no appointment fee and no travel charge, and most of the day-to-day work is handled remotely so you are never waiting on an office visit to get something sorted.
What kind of Essex businesses do you work with?
Essex is a county of trades, transport, retail and commuters, so that is where our work concentrates: construction and the trades, logistics and haulage, hospitality and retail, beauty and hair, and the many company directors who live in Essex but earn in London.
Essex has one of the highest concentrations of self-employed tradespeople and small construction firms in the country, which is why our CIS and construction specialism matters so much here. The A127, A13 and A12 corridors and the proximity to the Thames ports also make Essex strong on logistics, haulage and transport, where vehicle costs, drivers' expenses and fuel treatment all need handling correctly. Add the retail and hospitality of Basildon, Lakeside and the Southend seafront, and a large London commuter population of directors, and you have a very particular tax mix that a generic firm tends to miss.
I live in Essex but work in London. Can you handle both?
Yes, and it is one of the most common situations we see in Essex. The commuter belt is full of company directors and higher earners who live in Essex but draw their income through a London business, and the two sides need planning together.
We handle the limited company accounts and Corporation Tax on the London side and the personal Self Assessment on the Essex side as one joined-up piece of work, so your salary and dividend split, any rental income, pension contributions and allowable expenses are planned properly rather than left to chance at year-end. Whether you are commuting in on the c2c line from Basildon or Greater Anglia from Chelmsford, you can do all of it with us remotely and only come in if you want to. We keep every figure current against HMRC guidance on gov.uk.
