Recently joined R&R after coming across them on socials and wanting to switch to a more specialist dental accountant. I can say the service has truly been exceptional from Rehan. He is very knowledgeable and this makes a difference especially when you are in the early years of starting your own limited company. Communication is always efficient, all questions are answered and explained clearly and the overall process has been stress free and seamless. Would highly recommend to any dentist wanting specialist dental accountancy services.

I highly recommend Rehan for anyone needing personal tax help. He made the entire filing process incredibly smooth and stress-free discussing options available. Rehan was patient, answered all my complex questions, and helped me find deductions I completely missed in previous years. His communication was fast, and the pricing was clear from the start. I will definitely recommend him.

Excellent and efficient service. Rehan was extremely helpful, approachable, and always willing to answer any question I had. His specialist knowledge of the tax returns for dentists game me great confidence that every detail would be handled correctly and that nothing would be overlooked. I highly recommend Rehan and his services. I will definitely be using him again in the future.

New associate dentist here,I was initially worried about tax, but he’s been really knowledgeable and reassuring. It’s so important to have someone who understands dental tax specifically and actually knows what they’re doing. Highly recommend.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most from Blackburn businesses

Are you really a local accountant if I'm in Blackburn?
Yes. Our office is at 74 St James's Road, Blackburn BB1 8ET. We work with Blackburn sole traders, limited companies and landlords, and everything runs through cloud accounting software, so most queries are handled by phone, email or video call, with in-person meetings whenever they are genuinely useful.
How much does an accountant in Blackburn cost?
There is no single price, because a sole trader with one income stream and a VAT-registered limited company with staff are not the same job. We quote a fixed monthly fee after a free discovery call about your business, so you know the cost before any work starts.
Can you take over from my current accountant?
Yes, at any point in the year. We write to your existing accountant for professional clearance, collect your records and prior-year figures, and register as your agent with HMRC. You do not have to have an awkward conversation or chase anyone.
How quickly can you take over my accounts?
It depends on how up to date your records are, but a straightforward handover typically takes one to two weeks. We deal directly with your previous accountant to transfer everything across.
Is my business too small?
No. Whatever the size of your business, the right financial support matters from the start. We work with sole traders, freelancers, startups and established companies.
Can I manage my accounts on my own?
You can, but it takes time, and mistakes can lead to penalties or paying more tax than you need to. Professional support helps you avoid those risks and gives you back the time to run your business.
Do you only work with businesses in Blackburn?
No. Blackburn is where we are based, and we work with sole traders, limited companies and landlords across Lancashire and Greater Manchester. Distance is not a barrier when everything runs on Xero or QuickBooks.
Do I need to visit your office in person?
Not usually. Onboarding, quarterly reviews and day-to-day questions can all be handled remotely. If a face-to-face meeting is genuinely useful, we can always arrange one.






    Packages & pricing

    Packages to suit your business

    Every package is quoted as a fixed monthly fee after a free discovery call, so you know the cost before any work starts.

    Accountants in Blackburn: what we actually do here

    Blackburn's business base is unusually mixed for a town of its size, and the accounting work reflects that. On one side there is a long-established wholesale and textile trade around Whitebirk and Shadsworth, where the pressure points are stock valuation, import VAT and margins that move with the exchange rate. On the other there are hundreds of one-person businesses, such as private hire drivers, tradespeople, hairdressers, takeaway owners and online sellers, whose whole tax year hinges on getting expenses and mileage recorded properly.

    We handle both from our office on St James's Road. For limited companies around Shadsworth Business Park and Whitebirk Industrial Estate, that usually means quarterly management accounts, a director's salary and dividend split reviewed before the year end rather than after it, and a Corporation Tax figure you know months in advance. For sole traders across Mill Hill, Ewood, Livesey and Little Harwood, it usually means a clean set of digital records ready for Making Tax Digital, a Self Assessment filed early, and a payment-on-account forecast so January is not a shock.

    Healthcare is the other big local thread. Blackburn has pharmacies, dental practices, opticians and locum professionals working in and around the Royal Blackburn Teaching Hospital, and they need an accountant who already understands NHS pension implications, locum invoicing and pharmacy stock adjustments. Landlords are the third: rental portfolios in Cherry Tree, Feniscowles, Roe Lee and Audley, where Section 24 interest restriction and the incorporation question come up constantly.
