Client testimonials
Janet has been a great asset during the first year of running my business. Easy to work with, helped me when I needed help and advice. It's really reassuring that I know who I'm going to be speaking to on the phone or email and not getting passed round an office.

My end of year has just been completed with no dramas or panic and I know that was because she helped me get set up the right way rather than letting me go down the wrong path at the start.

Would definitely recommend.

Patrick Wood

It was a great bonus to have Janet referred to me. Janet is a very knowledgeable accountant and explained everything that I needed to know about my accounts. Extremely diligent, dedicated and professional at all times.

Paulene Anderson

Engaging Ekstra Accounting Solutions has given me peace of mind about my business finances. Janet has been very professional and always there for help and advice when needed. I no longer stress about year end, quite the opposite, such is my faith in Janet doing an excellent job I have been motivated to have everything ready to hand over very soon after 5th April. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking efficiency and professionalism from their Accountant.

Sandra Parry

Janet was excellent. Very prompt replies to emails, explained everything to me and was able to get a fairly complicated case resolved very quickly. I would highly recommend Ekstra Accounting Solutions.

Sarah Donelly

Ekstra Accounting Solutions helped me get my business back on track financially in every sense especially with VAT. My company was deregistered for vat in error by HMRC. As a result, I lost my VAT number which meant that my company could not claim any VAT back on imports for about 18 months. This impacted my business substantially and I struggled to find someone to help me resolve this issue. Janet took my company accounts and sorted everything out which was no mean feat. Janet even assembled a team of specialists to advise on how best to address the VAT issue. The end result is my company is now back on track and fully compliant with HMRC. Thank you so much Janet you’re a star, I am truly grateful that this is no longer hanging over me and my business.

Martyn Watters

Janet has provided such invaluable advice and support, which has been greatly appreciated! As the treasurer of a newly established Northern Irish charity, the world of HMRC, corporation tax and Companies House is completely new to me. The experience and expertise of Ekstra Accounting Solutions in helping us prepare our end-of-year accounts was so reassuring to myself and the Board, and I wouldn't hesitate to use their services again or to recommend their services to any other charities or business! Thanks so much Janet for your support, your willingness and interest in helping a new charity and for calming my nerves!

Leslie Altic

Janet reached out to me online after I posted on Social media looking for an accountant. She made the whole process comprehensible and uncomplicated, which is what I was looking for. She is very responsive and easy to get a hold of when I need help. If you're looking for an accountant, one who is composed and friendly, I'd recommend contacting her. Thanks

Stephen Roddy

Janet's professionalism and dedication in converting our Church accounts from simple spreadsheet format to Charity Commission Northern Ireland format has been exceptional. It has been a pleasure to work with her.

Joan Simpson

Janet offers a friendly, professional and well informed accountancy service. Nothing is ever to much trouble and in the relatively short time I have been with her, she has saved me both time and money. I cannot recommend Ekstra Accounting Solutions highly enough!

Ian Roddy

What a treasure we found when Janet appeared on our radar! From the initial contact to the accounting business support we now have, Janet has been so supportive. As a charity our accounts can be quite tedious but Janet has been so knowledgable in setting up and managing our accounts. She enabled us to take our bookkeeping and financial recordings to a whole new level in Xero.
I highly trust and recommend her services!
