Tax agent for upholsterers in Melton.
Furniture upholstery, restoration and automotive trim — distinct from general carpentry. Equipment-heavy with material stock and partial-job work-in-progress.
Melton's furniture restoration and automotive trim runs through upholsterers' workshops. Same long-cycle precision applied to your tax — fixed fee, on time.
Deductions specific to upholsterers.
Sewing machines, staple guns, frame tools
Industrial sewing machines and pneumatic staple guns above the threshold depreciate; hand-tools immediate.
Stock — fabric, foam, padding, frames
Long-cycle stock with short-roll batches; year-end stock adjustment matters.
Workshop rent or home-workshop running costs
Workshop rent fully deductible. Home workshops claim a portion of running costs — but watch CGT exposure.
Vehicle for pickup and delivery
Delivery and pickup of large furniture pieces; logbook captures it.
Restoration training and short courses
Heritage furniture restoration, automotive trim manufacturer training (Lear, Recaro), reupholstery technique courses.
What we see at audit.
Half-upholstered pieces are work-in-progress, not finished stock. Different valuation rules at year end.
Restoring your own furniture isn't deductible even if invoiced through the work account.
