Sound familiar?
Books eating your evenings
You started a business, not a bookkeeping job.
In-house hiring adds up fast
Salary, pension, and National Insurance — and they still take holidays, sick days, and notice periods.
Deadlines you can’t miss
VAT, payroll, year-end. Late means penalties.
Punchhole fixes all three — a full team, a fraction of the cost, nothing stops when someone’s away.
Everything your books need. One team.
From day-to-day bookkeeping to year-end filing, Punchhole’s UK-focused accounting team covers every part of your finance function — so you’re not stitching together a freelancer here and a software subscription there.
Bookkeeping
Clean, current books, reconciled every week, so you always know your numbers.
VAT Returns
Calculated and filed every quarter, in line with Making Tax Digital.
Payroll
Your team paid accurately and on time, every single pay run.
Tax Filing
CT600, self-assessment and year-end accounts, filed on time with HMRC.
Reports
Monthly management reports, so you always know where you stand.
Invoicing
Invoices raised, sent, and chased, so cash flow doesn’t depend on you remembering.

No lengthy onboarding, no paperwork upfront. Most businesses are live with their dedicated Punchhole team within two weeks of their first call.

We work in what you already use.
Punchhole works directly inside Xero, QuickBooks and Sage — the accounting software most UK small businesses already run on. There’s no forced migration and nothing new to learn.
No migration needed. Your systems, our team.
Real businesses, real results.
From care homes to property portfolios, Punchhole’s dedicated accounting teams solve the same problem in very different businesses: too much financial admin for one person to carry safely.
Payroll, invoicing, reports — all handled.
“I stopped thinking about the books. That’s the actual change.”
Every property, one team, books to tax return.
“Tax time used to be my worst month. Now it’s just another month.”

Before you ask.
Common questions from UK business owners considering outsourced accounting for the first time.
Do I need to send documents to get an estimate?
No — just rough numbers. Documents come later, if you go ahead.
How quickly can you take over our books?
Most businesses go live within two weeks of their first call. We handle the handover from your current bookkeeper, accountant, or software.
What if I already have a bookkeeper or accountant?
That’s fine. We can take over fully, or work alongside your existing accountant on specific tasks like payroll or VAT.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the size and complexity of your business. Use the calculator above for an instant estimate, or book a call for an exact price.
What if my accountant is sick or on holiday?
Someone else on your team covers it. Your books never depend on one person.
Do you work with businesses outside the UK?
Punchhole is built specifically for UK compliance — HMRC filings, VAT, and Companies House requirements. We work with UK-registered businesses, wherever their owners are based.
Is my data safe?
ICO registered, GDPR-compliant, encrypted, access limited to your team.
Am I locked in?
No. Scale up, down, or cancel monthly.
Your books, handled. Starting this month.
Join UK businesses who’ve handed their books to a dedicated team — one that doesn’t disappear on holiday, doesn’t hand in notice mid-quarter, and costs a fraction of hiring in-house.
