Accounts & corporation tax
Prepare and file company accounts and corporation tax with a clear view of what is due and why.
Limited company accounting with year-round clarity, not just year-end filing.
Gardian helps owner-managed companies keep accounts, tax, payroll, VAT and records organised so directors can make decisions with fewer surprises.
Director support
Self Assessment, salary/dividend planning and reminders for director responsibilities.
Management visibility
Monthly or periodic management information so owners can see what is happening earlier.
What is included
Limited company support should connect filing, director pay and record quality.
A company accountant is most useful when the routine compliance work feeds better decisions before year-end, not after the accounts are already late.
Typical support areas
- Annual accounts and corporation tax return preparation.
- Director Self Assessment reminders and salary/dividend planning prompts.
- VAT, payroll and CIS coordination where the company needs it.
- Bookkeeping workflow checks so receipts, bank activity and explanations are easier to review.
- Periodic management information when the director needs clearer cashflow and profit visibility.
Director clarity
What directors need to know before money leaves the company.
Many year-end problems start months earlier: drawings are not labelled clearly, dividends are taken without checking available profit, or payroll and personal tax are treated separately.
Questions Gardian can help organise
- Is this payment salary, dividend, loan repayment or director loan?
- Is there enough retained profit to support dividends?
- What needs checking before the company year-end?
- Which records are missing before accounts are prepared?

Limited company FAQs
Common questions from owner-managed companies.
Do I need a limited company accountant all year?
Year-end filing is only one part of the job. Year-round support helps with payroll, dividends, VAT, cashflow, record quality and planning decisions before deadlines compress the options.
Can Gardian help if my records are messy?
Yes, the first step is usually to understand the current bank records, software, receipts and deadline position. The aim is to create a cleaner routine, not just patch one return.
Is tax planning included?
Tax planning has to be based on the director’s facts, company profit and current rules. Gardian can identify planning points and explain options, but detailed advice should follow a proper review.
