Frequently Asked Questions
Here are frequently asked questions relevant for self-employed workers in the construction industry
Should I charge VAT on all my jobs?
It depends on the client and the type of work. If you work privately, you usually charge 21% or 9% VAT. If you work for contractors or business customers, other rules apply, such as the reverse charge mechanism. We will help you determine what applies when, so you can be sure you get it right.
Do I need an bookkeeper?
Many builders try to do the administration themselves at first, but soon run into questions about deductions, VAT or timekeeping. With an accountant, you avoid mistakes, save time and often get more out of your figures. We make sure everything is correct, but you remain in control.
Which costs can I deduct all of them?
More than you think. Think about tools, work clothes, transport, business telephone costs, further training and much more. What is and what is not deductible varies per situation, and we would be happy to help you get the most out of your business.
How often do we have contact when I become a customer?
You decide. Some clients talk to us every month, others mainly around their VAT returns. You always have a fixed contact person and can easily reach us by e-mail, phone or WhatsApp. We are there when you need us, not only for questions, but also to think along with you.
Send us a WhatsApp or give us a call. We’re happy to help!
