A Proven Track Record

Every business in the UK requires to pay business rates on commercial property.

By using their specialist knowledge, our experienced business rates team can ensure your Rateable Value is accurate and ultimately, that you are paying the correct amount in rates. Over the years, our enthusiastic team have a proven track record and made substantial savings on behalf of our clients across the full range of commercial and industrial sectors.

These savings were achieved in a number of ways including negotiation with the Valuation Office/Assessor, appearing before the Local Valuation Appeal Tribunal/ Committee and the Lands Tribunal, through claims for rates remission and other business rate reliefs, and checking rates bills to verify their accuracy.

A major Rate saving opportunity arose from the UK wide 2010 Revaluation which came into force on 1st April 2010.  We have been exploiting this opportunity successfully for various clients since appeals were submitted in 2010 and are still heavily involved in agreeing appeals leading up to the statutory deadline for appeal disposal of December 2013.

Additionally, we can provide advice on new capital projects, estimates of liabilities for future financial years and the effects of any new rating legislation brought into force.

We can keep you up-to-date via Barrometer, our dedicated newsletter. Just drop us an email and you can register to receive future updates by e-mail.

In the meantime, try our Rates Calculator to find out your rates liability.
