What our clients say

“Tom and his team have been a pleasure to work with since joining Pierce as a client in 2014. They have provided excellent advice and are very efficient in responding to queries.
Pierce have really provided an added value service that represents good value also. We are happy to work with them.”
Delta Plus (UK) Limited
Sam Hill, Managing Director
“Having been a client of Pierce for many years, Hills Panel Products Limited values immensely the input to the growth of our business over time from our annual financial audit, accounts preparation and professional advice given year on year. This has been and is achieved under the direct management of Tom Wilkinson. Last year we had the confidence to engage Tom to produce our very thorough and successful Research and Development HMRC corporation tax relief claim. We confidently look forward to maintaining and developing our current relationship to the benefit of both our businesses.”
Hill Panel Products
Richard Mottram, Director
“Promedics would highly recommend Tom Wilkinson. He has been an integral part of our business for several years, and Tom consistently adds value and commercial acumen to our company. He is a valuable sounding board to our Directors on commercial matters, and his straight-talking, business-first approach is hard to find in a finance professional.”
Promedics Orthopaedics
David Baxendale, Director
“Pierce have worked with and supported us for many years. Their support is invaluable, through audit services and guidance/advice on a wide range of issues. Their reporting and communication are excellent and assist us greatly in decision making and planning for our business. Jimmy and all at Pierce are approachable, accommodating and professional, we enjoy working with them. They have felt part of OUR team over the many years we have worked together. I would highly recommend Pierce C A Ltd for your accountancy and business advisory services.”
North Lancs Training Group
Gareth Lindsay, Managing Director
“Pierce have been our auditor and tax advisor for around three years now. During this time I have found all members of the team to be friendly and professional. I am in regular contact with their tax department and my queries are always dealt with quickly and thoroughly. We get so much more than just an audit from them – I have no regrets about transferring our business to them.”
Barnfield Construction Ltd
“Pierce have been my accountant since 1991, they have helped me through buy-ins, buy-outs, company openings and closures, expansion and contraction, share purchases and sales, takeovers, agreements, computerisation, borrowing, tax and VAT investigations, weekly, monthly and annual accounts, tax efficiencies, directors loans, success and failures, buying and selling property, wills, inheritance planning and good old business consultancy. This is just a fraction of what they have done. The Pierce team are all top-class and treat me as if I’m important to them. I would recommend Pierce to anyone – they are excellent.”
Cummins Mellor Ltd
Richard Mellor, Chairman
“I am an accountant having trained with one of the large “Big 4” international practices and in my career have dealt with firms of all sizes and to me the reason I have used Pierce for the last nine years is fairly simple. The practice is large enough to have the expertise and knowledge that I need and require for our business, but of such a size that I can deal directly with individuals who have the knowledge and experience, understand our business and are there to build long-term relationships.”
JDS Truck & Van
“We first approached Pierce in early 2012 when we were looking for a firm of accountants to provide company taxation advice and strategic support to our rapidly growing businesses. From the outset, we were suitably impressed with how quickly the salient aspects of our business were identified by Nadeem Hussain and Simon Diggle and they made many relevant, timely and insightful suggestions. When it came time for the appointment of auditors, we did not look elsewhere. We consider Pierce to be an integral part of our external advisory team and look forward to developing the relationship in years to come.”
Totally Wicked
“We recently moved to Pierce after being impressed by Jimmy and what Pierce could offer. The switch from our previous accountant was made easy and since we have benefitted from corporate and personal planning, which we have not had previously. Jimmy is currently assisting us with how best to structure our expansion overseas from both a tax and commercial perspective. We have been very impressed with Jimmy’s approach and advice and really look forward to working with him in the future as we look to grow our business further.”
P E Pipe Technologies Limited
Julie Lawrenson, Director
“Pierce have recently helped me to prepare and submit my accounts. I have genuinely never come away from an end of year meeting feeling so knowledgeable, engaged and inspired. I love the structure and direction both Ben Smith and Jonathan Seedall have provided me with along with forecasts for the following year. I am looking forward to working with Ben and the team and learning how to maximise my business potential. ”
Fuzzy Duck Food Company Ltd
Rachel Tuson, Director
“From our initial business idea, setting up the company and the subsequent year on year growth in the fast-paced technology industry, Pierce Accountants have offered guidance and resources to help us grow. Working directly with Jonathan has enabled our team to swiftly act as opportunities arise and keep abreast of all ongoing tax/payroll/NI obligations. Proactive accounting has meant we can forward plan, clear in the knowledge we have access to the resources of Pierce at any time.”
Neil Ainsworth
Director
“I have been a client of Pierce for 38 years, Ben Smith has explained my accounts in the most simplistic of ways to sure I was making well-informed decisions. My company has gone from strength to strength, gradually growing when the time was right and with the continued support from a trusted and very knowledgeable team of accountancy experts. I have recommended them to others including my two sons for their various business ventures. Over the years there have been many friendly welcomes with cups of tea and pleasant conversations on my arrival from the reception staff. I have also worked with professionals that Pierce has a relationship with, which gave me the confidence to know I was always in safe hands. THANK YOU. ”
Alan Wilkinson
Director
