Meet Andrew, Owner

AAT Licensed Accountant in Crewe

EmeraldSteel Accounting is run by Andrew as a family-run accountancy practice, understanding the unique challenges that face local businesses. His approach is simply to provide honest advice, in plain English. As an AAT-licenced accountant, Andrew has a professional background in accounting and finance as well as experience working in accounting practices nearby.

Living in the local area as a Crewe resident himself, Andrew understands the importance that local business owners can deal with real people and not a faceless firm.

At EmeraldSteel, accounting is more than filing returns and meeting deadlines; it’s about pro-active tax planning, clear communication and helping you to plan ahead. We believe accounting should be a tool for growth, not just a compliance exercise, providing clear and practical support throughout the year.

LOCAL CASE STUDY

Helping a beauty salon in Crewe with ‘Making Tax Digital’

Preparing for MTD requirements

We recently helped the owner of a local salon and beauty treatment business, to get all set-up for ‘Making Tax Digital’. Like most small businesses, owners are always pushed for time and the mention of tax returns can be overwhelming! What we heard was… “As a small salon owner, accounts and tax have always been one of those things that I put off because I found it overwhelming and, if I'm honest, a bit intimidating.”

Accountancy in plain English!

We took the time to explain everything in a way that makes sense, without unnecessary accounting jargon. As a result, our client was much more comfortable with the process and felt prepared after we helped with getting them set-up and always being at the end of a phone.

Ongoing support from a local accountant

Just like with this salon, we can help you to focus on your business and let us worry about tax deadlines and paperwork. By choosing us, you will benefit from a dedicated Crewe accountant who genuinely cares and that you can trust.

Beauty salon in Crewe

I don't normally leave reviews, but I genuinely felt Andrew deserved one.

I always worried I was missing something or doing something wrong. Running a salon is busy enough without having to worry about tax deadlines and paperwork, so having someone I can trust to take care of it all has been invaluable.

If you're looking for an accountant who is approachable, knowledgeable and genuinely cares, I honestly couldn't recommend Andrew highly enough.
