Tax agent for bricklayers in Melton.
Bricklayers carry one of the heavier physical workloads in the trades — and a deduction profile that quietly stacks up. A registered tax agent in Melton who already works with the trade keeps year-end simple.
Melton's brick stock is the work of bricklayers pacing the new estates. Hard work, thin margins, generations of trade pride. We bring the same discipline to your tax — fixed fee, on time.
Deductions specific to bricklayers.
Trowels, line blocks, brick saws, mixers
Hand tools under $300 are immediate; brick saws, mortar mixers and lift gear above the threshold depreciate.
Vehicle and trailer for material runs
Logbook usually beats cents-per-km because of the high work-kilometres carting bricks, sand and cement.
Compulsory PPE and high-replacement consumables
Steel-cap boots, knee pads, hi-vis with logo, gloves, sun protection (the BCITF approves sunscreen for outdoor trades).
Working-at-heights, EWP and white-card refreshers
Mandatory tickets for site access. Renewals are deductible.
Self-education — heritage and decorative bricklaying
Specialist short courses for heritage repointing, brick-arch construction and decorative finishes are deductible where they relate to current income streams.
What we see at audit.
Pavers, retaining-wall blocks and edging used at your own home aren't deductible.
Meals during a normal work day are private spending unless you're on an overtime meal allowance.
Some bricklayers develop cement dermatitis. Specific medical treatment for a work-caused condition is potentially claimable if your employer doesn't reimburse it, though we'd discuss this with you first because the claim has tight requirements.
