About
A small practice, run properly.
Geldarts is a bookkeeping practice run by Ryan Geldart. It keeps the books for sole traders, landlords and small companies across the UK, and files what needs filing on time.
Ryan is studying for an honours degree in finance alongside running the practice, and is a developer by trade. The firm runs on software he built for it: a ledger, bank feeds, receipt capture and a client portal designed around how small businesses actually operate, rather than adapted from something meant for a finance department. The plan is deliberate: bookkeeping first, done well, on tools we control, then accountancy and advisory as the qualifications follow.
Before taking on a single client the firm will be supervised for anti-money-laundering purposes, hold professional indemnity insurance, and be registered with the Information Commissioner's Office. Those aren't badges; they're the minimum for handling someone's financial records, and we'll publish the registration details here as each is confirmed.
How we work
Some rules we keep.
Fixed fees
You know the cost before the work starts and it doesn't change because a month was busy.
Nothing typed twice
Bank feeds and receipt capture mean the data is entered once, by the system, and checked by a person.
One message a month
Queries are batched. You aren't interrupted with questions every other day.
Say what we don't do
Statutory accounts and tax advice go to an accountant. We say so plainly and hand over clean books.
Talk it through in twenty minutes.
A short call to understand your business, what needs doing, and what it would cost. No pitch, no obligation.
