In this bonus episode, we focus on what last autumn’s UK Budget means specifically for construction businesses.

From subcontractors and sole traders to limited companies and contractors, the construction industry faces unique tax, cash-flow, and compliance challenges. We break down the Budget changes that matter most to construction businesses and explain how they affect CIS, employment costs, investment in equipment, and day-to-day profitability.

If you work in construction and want clarity on what’s changed — and what you should be doing next — this episode is for you.

Everything we chat about on The Ledger Lounge (and in these show notes!) is meant to be helpful, interesting, and easy to understand — but it’s not personal tax, accounting, financial, or legal advice. Everyone’s situation is different, so always speak to a qualified professional before making decisions based on anything you hear in the show.

We do our best to keep things accurate and up to date, but rules and regulations can change. The views shared by our hosts and guests are just their own, so please don’t take them as official advice from any organisations we’re connected to.

Basically: enjoy the conversation, learn something new, but don’t make big decisions without proper guidance!
