I have been with Steve and his team for over 10 years and have always found them very professional with that personal touch, can't recommend them enough.

We were recently put in touch with Steven Burton and from day one everything regarding our finances was explained in easy to understand detail, as well as being informed of the fee, which remained the same, no added extras. Efficiency is the word I would use to express our working experience with the firm and would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone whose accountancy problems need solving, big or small.

We moved our accountancy needs to Steven Burton and Co - specifically with David. It’s been night and day compared to our previous provider - we now have a partner who is helping us to develop our business and in a way that means we have long term security. Local, accessible and responsive - everything we need in a company that provides business critical services.

The team at Steven Burton & Co have been lovely to work with, helping us with our partnership accounts over the last couple of years. They are always on hand to answer any queries we have and are happy to explain in as much detail as we require. Everyone we have spoken to has been polite, welcoming and extremely knowledgeable and we look forward to continuing to work together as our business grows.

A truly fantastic accountants. Unlike any other accountants we have had in the past. They are 100 percent on the ball, helpful with fantastic advice. Not just sound accountancy advice but advising the business as a whole in various areas. Strategic quarterly reviews to really delve into the business to make sure profit margins are where they should be, and if they aren’t, they’ll look into improvements that can be made. Nothing is too much and the phone lines are always open for advice. Unlike most accountants their focus isn’t just on completing your annual accounts and not seeing you again for another year. I cannot praise the team enough for all the hard work they put in! They really have shifted our focus onto the aspects of the business that we were perhaps neglecting!
