PTRC - Capital Allowance Specialists

24/08/2026

This is the kind of thing that turns up inside a commercial building.

A hotel in Wales, £610,000. A museum in London, £480,000. A shop in Birmingham, £183,000. An office in Reading, £108,000.
Those are qualifying expenditure figures our reports identified. They are not tax saved and they are not money in anyone's pocket. A qualified accountant reviews each one and decides what can be claimed.

Four property types. Four price brackets. The one thing they had in common is that nobody had ever looked.

Own the building your dental, veterinary or GP practice runs from?

Practices are dense with fixed equipment, and a lot of it qualifies. Surgery lighting. Medical gas and compressed air. Extraction and ventilation. Dedicated electrics. Hot and cold water, sinks and sluices. Fire and security systems. Under the Capital Allowances Act 2001 the cost of items like these can be set against taxable profits.

Most of it was absorbed into the purchase price or the fit-out invoice, so it never appears as a separate line in the accounts. That is why it goes unclaimed.

Across the claims we have helped with, the average client tax saving has worked out at around £36,000. Every property is different, and the figure is an estimate the accountant verifies.

You pay only when a claim succeeds.

"Why hasn't my accountant done this?"

It is the first question almost everybody asks, and it deserves a straight answer.

Your accountant prepares your accounts and files your return. Capital allowances on the fabric of a building are a different job. The costs are buried in a purchase price or a refurbishment invoice, never itemised, and pulling them out means going through the property item by item against HMRC's published guidance. That is specialist work, and it sits outside ordinary accounts preparation.

So they have not missed anything. Nobody asked them to do it.
We do that part and hand your accountant a fully-sourced report. They review it and decide whether and how to make a claim.

Offices. Shops. Warehouses. Hotels. Care homes. Holiday lets. Pubs. Salons.

If you own one, there is a good chance nobody has ever looked at the capital allowances built into it.

When the property was bought or refurbished, part of what you paid went into the fabric of the building. Wiring, heating, lighting, fire systems, fittings. Under the Capital Allowances Act 2001 the cost of those things can be set against taxable profits, often years later.

Most accountants do not claim it, because finding it is specialist work that sits outside ordinary accounts preparation.

Own an Airbnb, a holiday let or a guest house?

There is a tax relief attached to the fittings inside the property, and most owners have never checked whether they can use it. The kitchens, the bathrooms, the heating, the wiring, the fitted furniture. When you bought or refurbished the place, a good part of what you spent went into things like these.

Whether it applies to your property depends on how it is let and how it is taxed, and that is a question for a qualified accountant, not for a social post. What we can do is look at the building and tell you what is in it.

Own a care home? There is money built into the building that most owners never claim.

Nurse call systems. Lifts and hoists. Fire safety. Heating and lighting. Bathrooms and wet rooms. When the property was bought or refurbished, a large part of the spend went into fittings like these, and under the Capital Allowances Act 2001 that cost can be set against taxable profits.

Care homes are fixture-heavy, which is why the numbers tend to run higher. Across the care home claims we have helped with, the average tax saving has worked out at around £96,000. Every property is different, and the figure is an estimate the accountant verifies.

We identify what may qualify and give your accountant a fully-sourced report to review. You pay only when a claim succeeds.

£36,000. That is what the average client tax saving has worked out at across the commercial property claims we have helped with.

It comes from capital allowances, buried in the fabric of the building. The wiring, the lighting, the heating, the fittings. None of it shows up as a separate line in your accounts, which is why most accountants never claim it.

Every property is different, and the figure is an estimate the accountant verifies. But if you own a commercial property and nobody has ever looked at this, it is worth two minutes.

Here's a line we say out loud on every job.

PTRC, Capital Allowances Specialists doesn't make your claim. A qualified, insured accountant does.

We find the potential qualifying expenditure in your building and we produce the report. Then it goes to a regulated accountant, ideally one from our panel who know this work inside out, or your own if you'd prefer. They review it, use their own judgment, and make the submission.

We inform. The accountant decides. Six years of doing it exactly that way.

Have a look for yourself:

There is tax relief built into almost every commercial property. We deliver the report that identifies it, applying HMRC's own guidance, for a qualified accountant to review and claim. Six years in. You pay only when a claim succeeds.

Most firms hand you a number and ask you to trust it.

PTRC, Capital Allowances Specialists hands you the number and the reasoning behind it.

Every figure in our report carries a source, tied back to the Capital Allowances Act 2001 and HMRC's own manuals. Your accountant could rebuild the whole thing without phoning us once.

We call it defensible by design. HMRC can reopen a claim years later, so it has to stand up, and a figure nobody can explain is a liability.

An open book is easier to trust. That's the point of ours.
