Understanding Capital Allowances
Capital allowances provide tax relief for businesses by allowing them to deduct certain costs associated with commercial property from their taxable income. These costs often relate to embedded assets—items that are integral to the property but not immediately visible. Common examples include heating and cooling systems, electrical installations, security systems, and sanitary fittings. Identifying and claiming these allowances requires specialist knowledge and expertise, which is where we step in.
The Embedded Capital Allowances Survey
At CARS, we conduct in-depth surveys to identify qualifying embedded capital allowances that may have been previously overlooked. Our detailed assessments ensure that every eligible asset is correctly classified and claimed, providing our clients with substantial tax savings. This process involves site inspections, a thorough analysis of property expenditure, and collaboration with accountants and tax professionals to ensure compliance with HMRC regulations.

What sets CARS apart is our multi-disciplinary team of professionals who bring together expertise across all relevant fields. Our team includes Chartered Accountants, Tax Experts, Chartered Surveyors & Valuers, Property Law specialists, and even a former HMRC Inspector.
