UK Capital Allowances
Using capital allowances individuals and businesses owning commercial property can potentially reduce their UK income and corporation tax.
Capital allowances are a recognised part of the UK tax regime. Some of the rules on capital allowances are very complex even for accountants and general tax professionals. Claiming this relief appropriately requires a strong expertise across taxation, accounting, legal and valuation.
Our approach
We help business and individuals who own commercial properties to work out the amount of capital allowance they can claim. This is used by HMRC to measure depreciation (wear and tear) of an asset. Commercial property owners are allowed to claim capital allowances on plant & machinery within their commercial buildings.
The value of the tax saving depends upon the types and sizes of buildings being claimed upon as well as the effective tax rate of the legal owning entity. Any business or individual owning, building or refurbishing commercial property can gain significant value from claiming capital allowances to reduce its tax liability.
New builds, refurbishments and extensions
Whether paying for the construction of a new property, or refurbishing or extending an existing one, capital allowances can reduce your tax liability.
