Colchester

Supporting our clients in Colchester since 1919

Our presence in Colchester technically dates back to 1919 when, following distinguished military service in World War One, Frank Bland set up an insurance company on Crouch Street with Cyril Fielden. Other financial services offered by Bland Fielden included accountancy, auditing and tax advice.  In 1990 the business merged with the Ipswich firm Scrutton, Goodchild and Sanderson to create Scrutton Bland. Services now included financial advice for individuals, such as pension and investment planning.

In 2007, our Colchester team moved to a new purpose-built office on Colchester Business Park, from where we continue to position ourselves at the forefront of new and emerging financial technology, with services such as cloud-based accounting helping clients to advance their businesses, in sectors including but not limited to:

Scrutton Bland
Based on 11 reviews
My family have been using Scrutton Bland’s accountancy services for over 40 years and we have valued the continuity from one generation to the next that this has provided. At all levels within the firm, we have received friendly and efficient attention to detail with business as well as personal accounts.

Graham Doubtfire has been a knowledgeable sounding-board for us throughout the past 15 years. He is extremely well-versed in tax affairs and has helped us to consider both our short- and long-term planning. He is always available to discuss our thoughts and concerns, and we have appreciated his quick response to our questions, remembering and understanding the nuances of financial considerations for family members. We really appreciated his warm and kind personality as he helped us negotiate family bereavements and the required administration, and his in-depth understanding of Lloyds Underwriting has been invaluable.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Scrutton Bland to others – even though we live over 150 miles away, we can’t imagine using anyone else!
Response from the owner:Hi Jo thank you so much for leaving us a wonderful review. Our Private Client Tax team have enjoyed working with you and your family for over 40 years and look forward to continuing to help you navigate your short and long term tax planning needs going forward.
David C from Scrutton was a great help and support to get my rather complicated tax returns sorted. He was available at all time to answer my questions. Very efficient service and they offer more than just support on tax returns. I can absolutely recommend using them
I have very much appreciated and valued the care and attention devoted to my tax affairs by SB over many years. No question or point raised has gone unanswered and usually by return and with complete clarity. In a sense I ‘inherited’ my contact with the firm through my late parents. The firm maintained this personal approach and style and it was a pleasure and comfort in tax matters to be dealing always with the same well-informed tax adviser.
Great service from Mr Collins, trusted, reliable and really goes the extra mile. For anyone looking for a tax/accounting profressional – look no further. Will definitely be using Scrutton Bland next year. Thank you for your great service.
Response from the owner:Andrew, the whole tax team was thrilled to hear your feedback! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us!
I worked with Emma who is absolutely excellent. She made everything really easy, replied to emails at lightening speed, and took the time to explain and discuss everything with me until i felt comfortable – no pushiness at all. Always acted in a professional manner and really was a pleasure to work with – which is not an easy comment to come by when dealing with insurance! Really impressed with Emma’s conduct, skill and professionalism, so now regularly rely on her and Scrutton Bland for my insurance needs.
