Very helpful, efficient and friendly. The team at Thickbroom take their time to explain things to you rather than just assuming you understand. As a new business owner, it was tough to know where to start with accounting but with their help I soon understood the basics. Nothing is too much for them and prices are very reasonable. 10/10!
