What we help with

Less bookkeeping stress.
A clearer routine.

Get support shaped around your business—not a vague package. We confirm the work, price and any exclusions in writing before anything starts.

Monthly bookkeeping for consistency

For businesses that want ongoing support, a monthly arrangement helps keep records organised throughout the year rather than letting work pile up. We also quote for one-off catch-up projects, quarterly arrangements and annual contracts where suitable, with scope and deadlines agreed upfront.

Reconciliations & reviews

Reconcile records against the relevant source information and flag missing items or questions that need your attention.

Onboarding & setup

Start with a review of your needs, a written scope, and a planned handover to the team responsible for delivery.

A smarter way to get your books done

Why outsource bookkeeping — and why choose LedgerOak?

Get specialist outsourced bookkeeping without the recruitment, training and staff-management overheads of an in-house hire. LedgerOak combines an India-based delivery model, a focus on UK business accounts, processes designed around applicable HMRC record-keeping requirements, and clear pricing before work begins.

Up to 65%*

Potentially lower costs

Using an India-based delivery team can cost less than employing an equivalent in-house bookkeeping resource in the UK. That can help keep your bookkeeping costs proportionate to the work you actually need.

Skilled team with a UK-account focus

Our delivery team is built around highly skilled bookkeeping professionals who specialise in UK business accounts and work to internationally recognised bookkeeping practices. Our processes are designed to support accurate, organised records in line with current, applicable HMRC record-keeping requirements. Before work starts, we agree the software, scope, deadlines and review arrangements for your job.

Monthly support, with flexible contract options

For ongoing bookkeeping, we recommend a monthly contract to help keep records organised and give your business a consistent routine. Depending on your needs and records, we also quote for quarterly and annual contracts, plus one-off catch-up jobs when appropriate. Your scope and deadlines are agreed in writing.

No recruitment or staff management

Avoid the time and overheads involved in recruiting, training and managing an employee, plus the need to arrange cover for absence. Outsourcing lets you buy an agreed service rather than build an internal role.

*Savings of up to 65% compared with employing an equivalent in-house bookkeeping resource may be possible in some cases, but are not guaranteed. Savings may be lower and depend on your current bookkeeping costs, workload, service scope, complexity, staff costs and current setup. We provide a tailored quote so you can compare the real numbers before deciding.

Clear before you commit

Know exactly what is included.

A business with tidy records needs a different level of support from one with months of backlog. Transaction volume, software and any extra services affect the work—and the quote.

For ongoing support, we recommend a monthly contract. We can also quote for quarterly or annual contracts and one-off catch-up projects where suitable. You receive the proposed scope, any one-off onboarding fee and the price for your chosen arrangement before work begins; exclusions are stated clearly.

Important: Routine bookkeeping, historical clean-up, VAT returns, payroll and year-end accounts are different services. Your quote will state exactly what's included and what would cost extra.

Good to know

Common questions.

Not sure what your business needs? Start with a quote request and we'll clarify the scope before you decide.

What does the onboarding fee cover?

It covers only the setup and onboarding tasks listed in your written quote. Historical clean-up, VAT returns, payroll and other work are separate unless expressly included.

How is bookkeeping priced?

Pricing depends on the period you need covered, transaction volume, software, the condition of your records and any additional services required. We confirm the proposed scope, timing and fee before you commit.

Why use an India-based bookkeeping team?

An India-based delivery model can help keep costs competitive without hiring and managing an in-house employee. LedgerOak focuses on UK business accounts, agrees the work and deadlines upfront, and explains how records will be handled before you commit.

How much could I save?

Your potential saving depends on your current bookkeeping costs, the services you use and the work required. Your saving could be lower or higher than 65%; in exceptional cases, some businesses may see savings of up to 85%. We can discuss a like-for-like cost comparison when preparing your quote.

Do you handle VAT returns, payroll or year-end accounts?

Core bookkeeping typically covers recording and categorising transactions, reconciling accounts and maintaining organised financial records. Depending on your requirements and the agreed package, VAT return preparation, payroll support and year-end accounting services may also be available. We'll confirm exactly what's included, who is responsible and any additional fees before work begins.

Do I have to sign up after getting a quote?

No. The enquiry and quote are no-obligation. You decide after reviewing the proposed work, fees, timing and terms.

How do I share my financial records securely?

Don't send bank details, passwords or financial documents through this website's quote form. If you become a client, the team should agree an appropriate secure method for transferring any necessary records before work begins.
