Do you work with tradespeople and contractors?

Yes. A good share of Thompson Daly's regular work is with contractors, builders, and trades across Nelson and Tasman — covering tax, GST, company structure, and year-round support shaped around how the business actually operates.

Can you help with GST registration and returns?

Yes. The tax team handles GST registration, filing, and the ongoing cycle, plus the structuring questions that come up when a business hits the threshold or changes direction.

Do you support rural and horticulture businesses?

Horticulture is one of the sectors Thompson Daly works in regularly, alongside contracting, engineering, and professional services. Advice is shaped by the region rather than delivered as a template.

Can you migrate my existing accounting system to Xero?

Yes. As a Xero Gold Partner, Thompson Daly handles setup, migration, training, payroll, and ongoing support. Work can be hands-on or lightweight depending on how much your team wants to run day-to-day.
