If you work in construction, you’ll know that CIS (Construction Industry Scheme) compliance isn’t optional — it’s essential. The rules can feel complicated, but understanding them is key to staying paid, protected, and penalty-free.
Under CIS, contractors must deduct tax at source from subcontractor payments and pass it to HMRC. It’s a simple concept — but small errors in filing or verification can lead to delays, fines, or worse, damaged working relationships.
For subcontractors, it’s just as important to make sure your records are accurate. Incorrect information can cause deductions to be taken at the wrong rate, cutting into your earnings unnecessarily.
That’s why many construction professionals now rely on accountants who specialise in CIS. At Chaps Accounting, we manage registrations, monthly returns, and verification processes, ensuring everything runs smoothly from start to finish.
Our approach isn’t just about ticking boxes — it’s about giving contractors and subcontractors peace of mind. You get clear communication, accurate deductions, and fully compliant submissions, every single month.
In a fast-moving sector like construction, reliable CIS management can be the difference between smooth operations and constant stress. Leave the admin to the experts, and focus on what you do best — building the business, not battling the paperwork.
