Yes. IB&Co Accountants, a firm of accountants and tax advisers at Level 37, 1 Canada Square in Canary Wharf, works with sole traders, landlords, contractors and limited companies across Surrey, including Guildford, Woking and Reigate. We work online by default, and you can meet us in person at Canary Wharf or at your premises, by appointment.
We work with businesses and individuals across the county, including:
Kingston upon Thames and Richmond are now London boroughs, not part of administrative Surrey. We can still work with businesses there, in the same way we work with clients across London.
We do not have a branch in Surrey. Day-to-day work is done online, through secure portals, cloud accounting and video calls. You can meet us in person at our office at One Canada Square, Canary Wharf, or at your premises, by appointment.
Most Surrey towns have a direct train into central London, and from there Canary Wharf is a short onward journey.
South Western Railway runs frequent trains from Guildford, Woking, Epsom, Walton-on-Thames, Weybridge, Staines-upon-Thames, Farnham and many other Surrey stations to London Waterloo. From Waterloo, the Jubilee line runs directly to Canary Wharf.
Some eastern and south-eastern Surrey stations, including Redhill, Reigate and Horley, are served by Southern or Thameslink trains into London Bridge. London Bridge is also on the Jubilee line, a few stops from Canary Wharf.
Our address is Level 37, 1 Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AA. We are open Monday to Friday 9:00 to 18:30 and Saturday 10:30 to 16:30, so you can see us before or after work, or on a Saturday. Check National Rail and TfL for times on the day you travel.
If a meeting at your premises in Surrey is more convenient, we can arrange that too. That fits how the practice began. Ishmael Bangura started out meeting small business owners in the evenings after his day job, because they did not have time for a nine-to-five accountant. We still work around you, not the other way round.
Surrey County Council describes a county of around 110,000 businesses, with strengths in creative work, cybersecurity, gaming and health, as well as a large base of professional and smaller firms. Guildford is a major employment centre, and the University of Surrey’s Research Park in the town is home to around 200 businesses in areas such as life sciences, space and aerospace, AI and cyber, and creative technology and games. Construction, property and professional services are also a significant part of the local economy, and many directors and contractors who work in London live in the county.
We can help:
Most of your tax obligations are national: Self Assessment, Corporation Tax, VAT and payroll are all dealt with by HMRC. A few things are local.
Business rates. Surrey currently has a two-tier system. If you occupy commercial premises, business rates (non-domestic rates) are billed by your district or borough council, not by Surrey County Council. That is Guildford Borough Council, Woking Borough Council, Reigate and Banstead Borough Council, Elmbridge Borough Council, Epsom and Ewell Borough Council, Mole Valley District Council, Runnymede Borough Council, Spelthorne Borough Council, Surrey Heath Borough Council, Tandridge District Council or Waverley Borough Council, depending on where the premises are. Your council can also tell you about reductions and reliefs. If you move into or out of a commercial property, you need to tell the council that bills the rates.
Licences. Depending on what you do, you may need a licence from the same district or borough council, for example for food, alcohol or street trading. We can point you to the right place and make sure licence costs are in your budget.
Rented property. Landlords have their own obligations alongside tax. For the tax side, including Making Tax Digital, see our Property Owners services and Making Tax Digital for landlords.
After a no-obligation Discovery Call we send a fixed, written proposal, agreed before any work starts.
For sole traders, our monthly fee starts from £59.99. Your exact fee depends on how complex the work is and is set out in your fixed, written proposal. Limited company accounts, payroll, VAT, CIS and other services are also charged as a fixed fee in your proposal, not from a public price list.
We can help with:
Our accountancy fees page explains what affects the cost.
You get a named contact, replies within 48 hours, and fixed fees agreed in writing before any work starts. You can do almost everything online, and still meet us in person at Canary Wharf, or at your premises, when that helps. IB&Co Accountants is regulated by the Institute of Financial Accountants (IFA) and the Institute of Public Accountants (IPA). With 10+ years in practice, Ishmael Bangura FFA and the team have helped more than 950 clients.
