Construction & Trades Payroll
in Taunton.
Running a construction or trades business in Taunton means managing CIS returns, subcontractor verification, and a mixed workforce of PAYE employees and subbies. Most payroll providers do not handle CIS well. We specialise in it.
Payroll built for construction & trades businesses in Taunton
CIS deductions and monthly returns
Getting CIS wrong carries heavy HMRC penalties. We handle verification, deductions at the correct rate, and monthly CIS300 returns on your behalf.
Mixed PAYE and subbies workforce
Most construction firms pay a mix of employed staff and CIS subcontractors. We manage both seamlessly within one payroll run.
Variable site-based hours
Hours change week to week. We accept rota data in any format and process it accurately every time.
CIS deduction rate errors create direct retrospective liability for you as the contractor
Paying an unverified subcontractor at 20% instead of 30% means you are personally liable to HMRC for the shortfall, with interest. We verify every subcontractor before their first payment and maintain an audit trail of every deduction.
Everything included for your Taunton construction business.
No bolt-ons, no per-payslip charges, no year-end surprises. One fixed monthly fee covering everything your Taunton business needs.
- Monthly CIS300 return filing with HMRC
- Subcontractor verification at correct deduction rate (0%, 20%, 30%)
- PAYE employee payroll alongside CIS subbies
- UTR number management and tracking
- Weekly and monthly pay cycle support
- Gross and net payment statements for subbies
- Pension auto-enrolment for eligible employees
- Holiday pay calculations for hourly staff
"Sterling handle our CIS returns every month without fail. We went from spending two days on compliance to zero, and we have not had a single HMRC penalty since."
