If you run a construction business, you’re probably here because one (or both) of these things are true:
You don’t want to be involved in financial admin – bookkeeping, CIS, VAT, payroll, compliance headaches – and either doing it yourself, or your accounts team still relies on your input.
Or you’re fed up with low margins – your profits keep disappearing, cash flow is tight, and you’ve no idea where the money is going or why your margins aren’t what they should be.
Maybe it’s both…
Accountants for Construction Companies and Their Owners
Running a construction business is hard enough without the stress of financial admin or disappearing profits
You need clarity. You need time back.

in our field

See what some of our clients say about us.
Billy Chambers, Managing Director, City M&E Ltd
We decided to work with Thomas Emlyn because we needed an accountant who really understands the construction industry, and they’ve been brilliant from day one.
Their knowledge of things like CIS, project costing, and cash flow has made a real difference in how we manage our finances and provided sound consulting advise.
Their support and response times have been spot on—whenever we’ve needed advice, they’ve been quick to respond with clear, practical guidance, which has saved us a lot of time and hassle.
We’ve only done quarterly management accounts a couple of times, but even in that short period, the insights we got were really useful. Having a proper breakdown of our financial position helped us make better decisions and plan ahead with confidence.
We’d absolutely recommend Thomas Emlyn to others in the construction industry. They’re knowledgeable, reliable, and make dealing with the numbers much easier so we can focus on running the business.
John Rowe, Commercial Director, Bloom Construction Group Ltd
Chris came highly recommended from a business owner I have a lot of respect for in the Construction Industry. From our first meeting, we have been treated with the highest level of professionalism and diligence. The Team is always on hand to help, response times are rapid and there is no task which isn’t met with enthusiasm to solve.
Being able to navigate the nuances around VAT and CIS has been particularly helpful. Also accurately tracking acceptable profit margins, how to categorise costs and analyse what we are spending too little or too much on. Chris and the team’s industry specific knowledge is invaluable.
As a busy and ambitious business owner, it’s important to me to protect my down time and maintain a healthy work life balance. Our Virtual Finance Office (VFO) dramatically enables this, as I can avoid hours upon hours on tasks where I am not an expert. I can instead focus time on activities where my skills have maximum impact to the growth of our business.
I can, and do, gladly recommend Thomas Emlyn to other businesses – for all the reasons above!
