My client who is an agricultural contractor who cuts hedges and puts fences up has recently erected a new fence for a client who has built a new house. The owner of the property says we must zero rate the cost of the fence as it is a new build. I am aware of the new build situation but was not aware that this covered zero rating the cost of a boundary fence. I would be inclined to charge VAT. Anyone any advice?
Many thanks Wella, I have followed the link and now see that this job follows the correct criteria and shall zero rate the invoice. We must be a sad lot working on accounts on a lovely day like today???
Know what you mean about working today but fortunately (not for the visitors though) it is a typical Cornish summers day, dull, overcast and mizzly. All that's missing is horizontal rain.
I'm actually having more of a sort out than working per se. (I'm one of those who never throws anything away, just rearranges it a bit).
Both the fan and air cooler are working overtime but it's making absolutely no impression on the heat at all... Maybe, if I can't stand this I should rethink the idea of eventually retiring to Thailand!
