I'd highly recommend Kieran who I've used to complete my basic accounts and tax return. He was responsive, professional and easy to work with.

Kate and her colleagues at DS Burge did a fantastic job of sorting out the tax and accounting affairs of my personal services company after I started freelancing as well as our slightly messy personal tax affairs. She is always friendly and helpful, never shows any annoyance when we ask silly questions or mess things up, and it is a great comfort to know that she is there for when we need her.

We have been working with Kieran for coming up to a year now. From the outset we found the service to be highly professional and supportive. The company are quick to respond to enquiries and go out of their way to support us as a client. They have helped our new adminstrator get on top of her bookeeping, which has been invaluable.

I am a book keeper and have worked with DS Burge & Co Accountants via a number of clients for a few years now. I have always found them to be friendly, incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and quick to respond to queries. Indeed, Kieran has often gone above and beyond to resolve queries that I have had. I would definitely recommend them and have to some of my clients, who are also very satisfied with the service that they have received.

I can't recommend Kieran and Yuko highly enough. They are thoughtful, responsive, reliable and trustworthy. I feel in very safe hands with them and they have supported the growth of my business right from the beginning. I always get a swift response to any queries or questions I have, and they are proactive, engaged and tech savvy. I have recommended them to several people and will carry on doing so as they provide an excellent service.

Outstanding service. Quick, efficient and more importantly, took the time to explain their calculations. I used DS Burge and Co for my tax return/self assessment. I have previously used an online accountant for years but due to a decline in that service, I wanted a more personal, local service and I got that in DS Burge and Co. Kieran and Kate both extremely helpful and communicative. Will use again.
