Sound familiar?
Accounting taking up time you do not have.
Running a business in Torquay means there is always something more pressing than reconciling bank statements or working out what you owe HMRC. The books slip behind, deadlines creep up, and when you finally do sit down with the numbers, you are not quite sure they are right. That is a reasonable amount of background stress for something that should be fairly straightforward.
- Tax bill arriving as a surprise because no one flagged it in advance
- Months behind on bookkeeping with no clear picture of where you stand
- Previous accountant slow to reply, leaving questions unanswered for days
What sorted looks like
Clean books, a visible tax position, and an accountant who actually responds. That is the practical outcome, and it tends to free up a considerable amount of mental space.
- Your tax liability known months early so you can plan and set funds aside
- Bookkeeping current every month — no scramble at year-end, no guessing
- Questions answered the day you ask them, in plain English, not jargon
- One fixed monthly fee covering everything agreed at the start — no add-on surprises
What Wolverley and Torquay clients say
Daniel works directly with every client. These are their words, unchanged, about the difference that makes in practice.
Huge thanks to Daniel for helping ourselves with our taxes! Being self employed means we all have to do this ourselves which is just not possible on top of our work load. Thanks again! We will be using you again!
Daniel was very helpful with my books and tax return. He offered great advise and insight in how to manage my books better and more efficiently. His knowledge in tax law and what can be used for expenses really helped with saving money where I could. As a sole trader it’s really hard to keep on top of things and have now asked Dan to do monthly books for me. His rates are extremely good compared to some other accountants out there and I get more for my money.
Compliance handled, advice included.
Every package covers the compliance work your business legally needs, with proactive advice built in — not sold separately as an extra.
Bookkeeping and VAT compliance
Your records are kept current in Xero every month, so your VAT return is straightforward when the quarter arrives and your figures are never a mystery. MTD requirements are handled as a matter of course. No year-end scramble, no rushed reconciliations.
Included as standardYear-end accounts and tax returns
Statutory accounts, Corporation Tax returns and Companies House filings completed accurately and submitted well ahead of deadline. If you are a sole trader, your Self Assessment is filed with the same care. You will know what you owe before HMRC tells you.
Included as standardProactive advice when it matters
Filing returns is the minimum. Daniel reviews your numbers, flags tax planning opportunities, and alerts you to anything worth acting on before it becomes urgent. You get a fixed fee that covers the conversation, not just the paperwork.
Built into every planConsistent results across different clients
Sole traders, limited company directors, professionals with complex finances — the experience tends to be the same: clear, responsive, no unpleasant surprises.
Quick, Efficient and Friendly Throughout
“Excellent service providing financial accounts for probate. Quick, efficient and friendly. Would highly recommend.”
Fantastic Service Provided
“Fantastic service provided. Thank you.”
Turned Around Quickly, Work Done Thoroughly
“I worked with Daniel at DG Accountancy to review and sign off my sole trader accounts for a time-sensitive mortgage application, and the service was excellent. Daniel was extremely responsive, clear, and professional throughout. He understood exactly what the lender required, turned everything around very quickly without cutting corners. Communication was straightforward and reassuring, which made a potentially stressful part of the mortgage process much easier. Fees were transparent, turnaround was fast, and the work was done thoroughly and accurately. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Daniel to anyone needing reliable accountancy support, particularly where deadlines really matter.”
What makes the difference in practice
There are plenty of accountants in Devon. These are the specific reasons clients stay and refer others.
Twenty years of cross-sector depth
Daniel has worked inside airlines, construction firms, manufacturers and entertainment businesses. That breadth means he recognises the actual challenges your business faces before you have finished explaining them. You get experience earned across real organisations, not a graduate learning on your time.
Questions answered the day you ask
DG Accountancy is built around responsiveness. If you send a question on a Tuesday morning, you will have an answer by Tuesday. There is no queue, no junior relay, and no waiting until the accountant is free from another client’s year-end.
Plain English every time
Accounting involves some genuinely complex rules. None of that complexity needs to end up in your inbox as a wall of jargon. Daniel explains what the figures mean, what your options are, and what happens next — in language that is actually useful.
Up and running in four straightforward steps.
Most new clients are fully onboarded within a week. The process is designed to take as little of your time as possible.
Book a free discovery call
A short call to talk through your business, your current set-up, and what you need. No sales pitch. If DG Accountancy is not the right fit, you will be told so honestly.
Receive your fixed-fee quote
You will get a clear, written quote covering exactly what is included. Everything is agreed before anything starts, so there are no unexpected invoices later.
Onboarding and cloud setup
Your Xero account is set up or tidied up, bank feeds are connected, and the necessary information is gathered. Most clients are fully onboarded within a week and have little to do themselves.
Compliance handled, you focus forward
Returns are filed, books are current, and you get responsive advice whenever you need it. The parts of running a business that used to sit at the back of your mind largely stop sitting there.
“Professional service. This company does my accounts every year and i never have to worry about it. Speedy as well. I am a very happy customer.”
Things people usually ask before getting started
You are based in Wolverley — does that mean you only work with local businesses?
No. DG Accountancy operates as a fully online practice, which means the address in Wolverley is where Daniel is based, not a boundary on who he works with. Clients are served across Devon and throughout the UK. Everything runs via Xero, video calls and secure file sharing, so location makes no practical difference to the service.
What does it cost, and what is actually included?
Pricing is a fixed monthly fee tailored to your business structure and the services you need. Limited company packages start from £79 per month, with a 50 per cent discount for the first three months. Sole trader packages start from £41 per month on the same promotional terms. Everything covered is agreed in writing before you start, so there are no hourly rates and no charges that appear without warning.
My books are behind — is that a problem?
It is a common situation, not a disqualifying one. A catch-up bookkeeping exercise is scoped and priced before any work starts, so you know exactly what bringing things up to date will cost. Once the backlog is cleared, the ongoing monthly service keeps things current going forward. Most clients arrive with records in some state of disarray and leave the onboarding process considerably more organised.
Is there a long-term contract or a minimum commitment?
There is no long-term contract. Services run on a monthly basis and you can leave with reasonable notice. If it is not working after three months, you take clean, up-to-date books with you and nothing further is owed. The aim is to earn your business every month, not to rely on a contract to keep it.
Will I deal with Daniel directly, or will my work be passed to someone else?
You will work directly with Daniel. There are no juniors, no rotating contacts, and no handoffs to a different team member for different tasks. That consistency is one of the more practical differences between a practice of this size and a larger firm where your point of contact can change without notice.
How far in advance will I know what my tax bill is?
The goal is that your tax position is visible well before any deadline. For limited company directors, Corporation Tax and any personal Self Assessment liability are discussed as part of the year-end process, typically with enough lead time to plan accordingly. You will not be reading a figure for the first time in a letter from HMRC.
