Established in 2017, this Dartford based cleaning specialist has grown from a builders’ cleaning provider into a professional team dedicated to delivering high quality services. With more than ten years of industry experience, the company offers a wide range of specialist cleaning solutions and maintains full compliance across all projects through its highly trained staff. While concentrated in London and the South East, its portfolio now spans the UK, supporting major construction firms including national housebuilders and commercial developers.
How we supported the company
This business became a client of Blue Rocket Accounting in September 2021. As the company expanded, the need for multiple accounting and financial management services became increasingly clear. Alongside growing compliance requirements, the business also faced challenges with historic debtors. Blue Rocket Accounting provided a tailored package of support to address these issues, from payroll and VAT to corporation tax and credit control.
Instant peace of mind
Operating within the construction sector brings daily challenges, and the directors of the company encountered the same pressures faced by many service providers in the industry. Cash flow instability and unpaid invoices remain significant problems for construction related businesses, with payment delays stretching up to 120 days in some cases. These issues directly affect subcontractors and suppliers, and this business experienced similar difficulties.
One major concern was a six month overdue debt of £45,000 which posed a serious risk to cash flow. Blue Rocket Accounting acted swiftly, prioritising the recovery of this outstanding amount. Director Miguel Calabrese identified that claims exceeding £10,000 require a specific process, and under his guidance the team initiated the appropriate action to recover the funds.
The directors told us:
“Miguel explained the situation clearly and talked us through the options available. He assisted with the claim and supported us with all the information needed. Thanks to him, we received the full payment plus the costs associated with making the claim.”
They went on to share:
“A very important part of our collaboration is the peace of mind Blue Rocket Accounting gives us. Even though we have only been with them a short time, they have shown us that we can trust and rely on them at any point. They are dedicated, highly professional and give us confidence as business owners.”
Ongoing support and reassurance
Strong credit control is essential for healthy cash flow. The solution provided by Blue Rocket Accounting gave the business a pathway out of ongoing financial strain and ensured support throughout the entire process. The relationship built between the directors and the Blue Rocket team has created trust and allows the business to continue growing with confidence.
The company now subscribes to a range of Blue Rocket Accounting services, including:
- Credit control
- Bookkeeping
- VAT returns
- Payroll
- CIS
- Annual accounts
- Corporation tax
When asked what sets Blue Rocket Accounting apart, the directors shared:
“Blue Rocket Accounting combine knowledge, sincerity and valuable resources. They invest in relationships, offer far more than standard bookkeeping and provide consistent support that makes a real difference.”
They added:
“We could give many examples of how they help us maintain clarity and reduce stress. One special moment was when they invited us to lunch to celebrate our company’s anniversary. They listened to our plans and made us feel genuinely valued.”
On the value delivered:
“Blue Rocket improved our cash flow significantly, and they now manage our payments through their credit control service along with the other services we use. It was absolutely the right decision for our business.”
