Accountants in Birmingham - why choose us?
“I have been a client of Barnett Ravenscroft for several years. I made the switch for both my company and personal tax/accounting affairs as a result of having “shared” mutual clients with Barnett Ravenscroft and my then accountants having been subsumed into a larger impersonal practice. I have found all the Partners & staff at Barnett Ravenscroft to be knowledgeable, professional, friendly and approachable. I am very pleased with the services provided by Richard and his colleagues.”
— John Soden, Director J55 Consult Ltd
“Simply the best accountants any business could have. I met Phil Barnett about 25 years ago when he assisted my bank and myself to get a grip on my expansion plans for my firm and have been with them ever since and could not think of a better firm to look after you and your business. I have heeded Phil’s advice and I am still going strong after nearly 40 years!
They provide an excellent efficient service and as any decent firm of accountants should do, they add value to your business with timely and sensible advice. I feel safe in their hands and the current owner Ben Eley is a credit to the firm and a great successor to Phil.”
— Brendan Fleming, Brendan Fleming Solicitors
“I have worked with accountants in Birmingham Barnett Ravenscroft for a large number of years now, and I am actually the second generation in my family to use this excellent accountancy firm. Being large enough as a company to deal with the big stuff, they have not lost the small company attitude, which means they truly support their customers with a friendly personal service. Unlike other companies, they come up with support you need, without you actually asking, which has proved to be invaluable to a busy company owner like myself. Through the pandemic, the information they have provided has been incredibly useful to my company, and I would class them as second to none.”
— Mark Bennett, Company Director of Caramba Marketing Ltd
“My Company has been a client of Barnett Ravenscroft since 2005. I’m often asked the question, how much do you pay for your Accountants? The World seems to be full of people who can ‘get it cheaper’, ‘do it better’ etc etc….But I always give the same answer: what price can you put on a total comprehensive, professional and family friendly service? – for me, in this instance, it is more than pounds, shillings and pence on a spreadsheet.
Dealing with all of the team is always fast, efficient, friendly, and no question seems too much hassle or bother.
If your objective when looking for an accountancy firm is all about the cheapest cost you can achieve, then perhaps look elsewhere – but if you are a small, medium or large business, looking for a complete package, then look no further than Barnett Ravenscroft – you will not be disappointed!”
— David Sillery, Director of ADSS Limited

“What strikes me as being one of the main reasons for recruiting the expertise of Richard and his faultless team of professionals at Barnett Ravenscroft Chartered Accountants in Birmingham (BR) has to be its people and their exceptional ability to put you at ease with their friendly approach of sincerely “wanting” to help you. Nothing is too much trouble, are always available to answer any questions and can explain even the most complex of accounting matters in an easy to understand way.
The wealth of knowledge, combined with the broad spectrum of specialised accounting services offered by BR is like a one stop shop for us which has meant that anything from submitting our personal tax returns, administering our annual audits to the filing of company accounts are all diligently handled in one place.
Finally, Richard Gold and his team have been instrumental in all of our accounting needs thanks to our close working relationship, which incidentally feels more like an extension to our existing team here at Regal. I would be the first to recommend Barnett Ravenscroft and sincerely look forward to the reliable, cost effective and invaluable source of expert independent advice and support for many years to come.”
— Mr Roger Smith, Founder & CEO of Regal Mechanical & Electrical Services

“Running a business constantly presents challenges. When these challenges fall outside of your own areas of expertise, it is important to have first rate advice and guidance on hand. BR have provided this support to us for over 20 years, without fail. It is reassuring to know that we can rely on first rate services from the whole team no matter how complex.”
— Brian Forde of Structured Cabling

“I have to say that it was with some trepidation that we had to appoint new accountants when Brian Jones retired after serving us so well for over thirty years. But we are so pleased that after much deliberation we decided to go with his glowing recommendation of you and your company. What transpired almost immediately after your appointment could only be described as a catalogue of unjustifiable disasters which you somehow managed to guide us through by always going the extra mile for us at a time of enormous stress and it became very obvious to us that you were very much there for the long term and not just in it to make a quick buck! You must have wondered what you had let yourself in for but you have helped us to steady the ship and assuming we get through this bloody pandemic we can hopefully look forward to calmer waters!
Quite simply, “Thank You” and we are confident you will continue to look after our boys well after we are forgotten.”
— Clive and Sonya Blythe of CTW (Camberley) Ltd
