What Canning Town Contractors Say

Real feedback from construction clients working across the Docklands development zone.

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

"I do steelwork on the Royal Docks tower projects and LOYALS has been handling my CIS since I started. They got my verification sorted quickly, reclaimed over ยฃ4,000 in overpaid tax, and now file everything monthly without me even thinking about it."

Mick D.

Steelwork Subcontractor, Canning Town

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…

"Working on the Silvertown Tunnel meant dealing with a really complex contractor chain. My old accountant couldn't keep up. LOYALS understood the multi-tier CIS setup instantly and now tracks every deduction from every contractor I invoice. Total game changer."

Viktor N.

Plant Operator, Silvertown

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from construction workers and contractors around Canning Town.

Why do Canning Town subcontractors need a specialist construction accountant?+
Canning Town sits at the heart of East London's biggest development zone โ€” the Royal Docks, Silvertown Tunnel, and Custom House expansion. These major projects involve complex contractor chains with multiple tiers of CIS deductions. A specialist construction accountant ensures your returns are filed correctly, deductions are tracked per project, and your tax position is optimised across every site you work on.
How much does a construction accountant cost in the Canning Town area?+
LOYALS packages for construction subcontractors start from ยฃ149 per month, covering CIS returns, bookkeeping, and self assessment. The exact cost depends on your turnover, the number of contracts you manage, and whether you operate as sole trader or limited company. We give you a clear quote during your free consultation โ€” no hidden fees, no surprises.
Can LOYALS handle CIS for subcontractors working on the Silvertown Tunnel project?+
Yes. The Silvertown Tunnel is one of East London's largest infrastructure projects and involves complex multi-tier contractor arrangements. We manage CIS compliance for subcontractors at every level of the supply chain, track deductions from each principal contractor, and ensure overpaid tax is reclaimed promptly through your self assessment.
What expenses can I claim as a construction worker in Canning Town?+
Self-employed subcontractors working around Canning Town can typically claim tools and equipment, safety gear, materials, travel to temporary sites across the Royal Docks area, van and fuel costs, insurance, mobile phone usage, and relevant training or certifications. LOYALS captures every allowable deduction to minimise your tax bill.
Should I register for VAT if I'm working on Royal Docks construction projects?+
VAT registration is mandatory once your taxable turnover exceeds ยฃ90,000 in a rolling 12-month period. With the scale of construction work available around the Royal Docks, Canning Town and Silvertown, many subcontractors cross this threshold within their first year. LOYALS handles registration, quarterly returns, and the domestic reverse charge that applies to most construction invoices.
Can LOYALS help me transition from sole trader to limited company for my Canning Town construction work?+
Absolutely. Once your profits exceed around ยฃ40,000-50,000 per year, operating through a limited company often reduces your overall tax bill. We handle the entire transition โ€” Companies House registration, CIS company setup, VAT transfer, payroll configuration, and bank account guidance. Many of our Canning Town clients have saved thousands by incorporating at the right time.
How does the domestic reverse charge apply to my Canning Town construction invoices?+
The reverse charge means that on most business-to-business construction services, the customer accounts for VAT instead of the supplier. So when invoicing VAT-registered contractors on Royal Docks projects, you typically don't charge VAT but still reclaim VAT on your own purchases. LOYALS ensures your invoices are correctly formatted and your VAT returns properly reflect the reverse charge.
Can LOYALS manage my accounts if I work across Canning Town, Stratford and other East London sites?+
Of course. Most of our East London construction clients work across multiple sites โ€” Canning Town, Stratford, Barking, Greenwich, and the wider Docklands. We track income and expenses by project, manage CIS deductions from multiple principal contractors, and give you consolidated reporting so you always know how each job is performing.
