If you engage subcontractors, the Construction Industry Scheme is your legal responsibility every month. We run it for you end to end (verifying subbies, calculating deductions, filing monthly returns and issuing statements) so you stay compliant and penalty-free.
A missed monthly CIS return brings an automatic £100 penalty, with further penalties added as the months pass. If a subcontractor is verified incorrectly, the wrong amount is deducted from what you pay them. As the contractor, the scheme is your responsibility, and we can run it for you so that none of this arises.
Let's fix itThe monthly CIS return is one more deadline you can't afford to miss on top of running jobs.
Verifying new subcontractors and applying 20%, 30% or gross correctly is fiddly and easy to get wrong.
Subbies chase you for their deduction statements and it's another job on the pile.
You want gross payment status (or to keep it) and need your compliance spotless to qualify.
Our team includes a specialist who co-founded a dedicated CIS compliance company, so the scheme is run by people who know it thoroughly.

A CIS return filed even one day late triggers an automatic £100 penalty, with further penalties at two months, six months and twelve months. When we run your CIS the returns are filed on time and these penalties do not arise.
Before you first pay a subcontractor you must verify them with HMRC, who confirm whether to deduct at 20%, 30%, or pay gross. We verify every subbie for you and keep the records, so you always deduct the correct amount.
Gross status lets you be paid in full with no CIS deducted, which is far better for cash flow. To get and keep it you must pass HMRC's turnover, business and compliance tests, filing and paying everything on time. We manage your compliance so you qualify and stay qualified.
