Welcome

Welcome to the MAS Associates website.
We are a friendly, family business, giving our clients a caring service. Having established a successful accountancy practice, based on client recommendation, we fully appreciate our clients are not accountants and take time to explain our services in simple, everyday language. 

Never too busy to talk to you, our staff are always only a telephone call away to deal with any queries our clients may have, or to arrange an appointment either at our offices or your premises. All our work is undertaken on a fixed fee basis, so you know exactlly what the cost will be.

For larger clients monthly payment terms are available in order to ease client's cash flows. We hope you enjoy browsing our site and find the information here useful. Please feel free to contact us for a free no obligation consultation to discuss any requirements you may have.
