Sound familiar?
Still doing your own books on Sunday evenings?
Most small business owners in Wellswood end up managing their own bookkeeping by default, not by choice. It works until it does not — a VAT threshold crept past unnoticed, a tax bill larger than expected, or a lender asking for accounts that are months out of date. The records exist somewhere. Whether they are accurate is another matter.
- Reconciling bank transactions in your own time, every month
- No clear picture of what your tax bill will be until it arrives
- Books behind — and the backlog growing faster than you can clear it
What sorted looks like
Your Xero records are kept current monthly by someone who already knows the numbers. Your tax position is visible year-round. And the backlog, if there is one, gets cleared before anything else.
- Monthly bookkeeping in Xero — bank feeds reconciled, records current
- Your tax liability tracked throughout the year, no January surprises
- Catch-up bookkeeping handled upfront so you start on solid ground
- Fixed monthly fee agreed in writing before any work begins
What Wellswood business owners say
From sole traders keeping their first set of books to limited company directors who needed the records tidying before a deadline.
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.
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.
Bookkeeping that keeps you out of trouble
A monthly bookkeeping service built around Xero, designed for sole traders and limited companies in Wellswood who want accurate records without doing it themselves.
Monthly Cloud Bookkeeping
Your transactions are categorised and reconciled in Xero each month, so your records are always current. Bank feeds connect automatically, which removes most of the manual effort on your end. You see your numbers in real time — no waiting until year-end to find out where you stand.
Included as standardVAT Returns and MTD Compliance
If you are VAT-registered, your quarterly returns are prepared from the same Xero data that runs your bookkeeping — no double-handling, no last-minute panic. Making Tax Digital compliance is built in from the start, so HMRC’s requirements are already covered.
Included or add-on by planSelf Assessment and Year-End
Because the bookkeeping is current throughout the year, your Self Assessment return and year-end accounts are a straightforward process rather than a long retrieval exercise. You know your tax bill well before the deadline, which is considerably more useful than finding out in January.
Included on most plansConsistently rated five stars
Clients range from sole traders filing for the first time to limited company directors managing more complex affairs. The experience tends to be the same: clear, fast, no jargon.
Professional, Meticulous, Highly Recommended
“Absolutely recommend Daniel for all and any accounts related matter. Would use his expertise again. He is the most amazing person, very professional, explaining every detail meticulously in order to finalise our accounts. A huge thank you Daniel.”
Self-Employed Tax Handled Without The Stress
“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!”
Quick, Efficient and Friendly Throughout
“Excellent service providing financial accounts for probate. Quick, efficient and friendly. Would highly recommend.”
What makes this different from any other bookkeeper
There are plenty of bookkeepers in Devon. Fewer with 20 years of cross-sector experience, an ACCA qualification, and a genuine preference for answering questions the same day.
Experience Across Real Businesses
Daniel has worked in airlines, construction, manufacturing and entertainment — industries where the numbers actually have to be right. That breadth means he understands your business before you have finished explaining it. You are not a training exercise.
Questions Answered the Same Day
DG Accountancy is known for fast replies. If you have a question about an expense, a VAT threshold, or what something means on your Xero dashboard, you get an answer the day you ask. Waiting three days for a simple reply is not something clients report here.
Xero-Based, Online, Always Accessible
Everything runs through Xero, so your records are accessible in real time from wherever you are. Bank feeds connect automatically, reports are available on demand, and the whole process requires very little from you once it is set up. Which is, frankly, the way it should be.
Up and running in four steps
Most clients are fully onboarded within a week. The process is designed to require as little from you as possible.
Book a free discovery call
A short conversation about your business, your current set-up, and what you actually need. No sales pitch — just a straightforward discussion about whether this is the right fit.
Receive your fixed-fee quote
You get a clear, written quote tailored to your business structure and the services you need. Everything is agreed in writing before any work starts, so there are no surprises on the first invoice.
Onboarding and Xero setup
Your Xero account is set up — or tidied up if one already exists — bank feeds are connected, and any catch-up bookkeeping is handled. Most clients are fully onboarded within a week.
Ongoing books and clear numbers
From that point, your bookkeeping runs in the background. Your records are current, your tax position is visible, and you have an accountant to call when something comes up. Less to think about each month than there was before.
“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 signing up
Do you work with businesses based in Wellswood, or is this just an online service?
DG Accountancy is based in Torquay, so Wellswood is on the doorstep. The service is delivered fully online — Xero, video calls and secure file sharing — which means you get the same quality of support whether you are around the corner or across the country. The local base simply means there is someone nearby who understands the area.
What does bookkeeping actually cost, and what is included?
Sole trader bookkeeping starts from £41 per month, with limited company plans starting from £79 per month. All fees are fixed, agreed upfront in writing, and include your dedicated accountant and Xero access. There are no hourly rates or surprise invoices. A free quote is tailored to your specific business before you commit to anything.
My books are behind — can you still help, or do I need to get them sorted first?
Catch-up bookkeeping is a normal part of getting started. Most new clients arrive with records that need some work — a few months behind is common, a year or more is not unusual. The backlog is assessed and priced as a one-off before anything else begins, so you know the cost upfront. You do not need to do anything before making contact.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. There is no lock-in. If the service is not working for you after three months, you leave with clean, up-to-date books and nothing owed beyond your last monthly fee. The aim is to make the service good enough that leaving does not come up — but that is your call to make.
I am already using Xero — do I need to start again?
No. If you already have a Xero account, the onboarding process involves reviewing what is already there, tidying up any historical issues, and connecting bank feeds if they are not already running. You do not lose your existing data or history.
Can you tell me my tax bill before the deadline rather than after?
Yes — and that is one of the practical benefits of current bookkeeping. Because your records are reconciled monthly in Xero, your tax position can be estimated well before the Self Assessment deadline. You will know roughly what you owe in enough time to plan for it, which is considerably more useful than finding out in January.
