Strategic accounting for Vogue Plumbing

Vogue Plumbing is a family business specialising in commercial property maintenance. They provide solutions for everything from small plumbing issues to complete refurbishments and renovations.

Having already been in operation for 35 years, they approached us to assist in facilitating a succession plan for the next generation of business owners.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best tax structure for my plumbing business?

This depends on your personal situation and ownership structure – but we can offer suggestions tailored to your circumstances. For example, if you have a growing plumbing business, it may be worth considering holding equipment in a different structure, which can protect your assets if you experience financial or legal difficulty.

What is the best software for my plumbing business?

Software options depend on the type of work your plumbing business conducts. Some solutions are ideal for managing and tracking multiple jobs in the field, while others are better for managing larger project work. SimPro, Workflow Max and Tradify are all widely used, and we can advise you which is best for your needs.

What types of work should I go for?

Plumbers often need to decide whether to focus on winning maintenance work or securing project work with builders. Maintenance work is good for steady cashflow, while project work can be more risky, but often delivers higher margins.

How can I best cost my jobs?

A lack of insight into actual costs often causes tradespeople to underquote on jobs – so quarterly catch-ups and reviews can provide a valuable insight into real job costings, for more accurate ongoing quotes.
