CIS gross status, waste carrier registration and payroll for construction businesses
Construction companies lose cash to two things: CIS deductions they could have avoided, and registrations they did not know applied. We fix the filing record that gross status depends on, register the waste tier that matches what you carry, and run PAYE and CIS together through We Switch Payroll.
What you get
The paperwork that stops you, in the order it has to happen
CIS gross payment status
Without it a contractor withholds 20% of every payment, 30% if you are not CIS-registered. On £200,000 of turnover that is £40,000 of cash flow. Granted on a clean filing record, which is what we build.
Waste carrier registration
Carrying your own construction waste from a job needs registration. Carrying anyone else’s needs upper tier. The wrong tier is the same as none.
VAT and the reverse charge
Registration prepared and submitted from your own Gateway with us on the call. We will tell you plainly whether you should register yet.
PAYE and CIS payroll together
Direct site staff through PAYE and subcontractors through CIS, weekly, in one place, with RTI filed on or before each payday. Through We Switch Payroll.
Company formation and register hygiene
The right SIC codes, the right officers, and a confirmation statement that matches reality. Tenders and supplier accounts check the public record.
Supreme Building Services
Sister company in the Supreme group on the materials supply side. Construction clients cross over between the two.
Straight answers
Common questions
We keep losing 20% to CIS. Can you get gross status?
If your filing and payment record is clean, yes, and the application is free. If it is not clean, the application fails on the compliance test, so we fix the record first and apply when it will pass. We are honest about which of those you are.
Do we need waste carrier registration for our own skips?
If you carry construction waste from a job in your own vehicle, yes. Lower tier may be enough if it is only your own waste in limited circumstances; if you ever move a client’s waste, it is upper tier.
Can you run payroll for subcontractors and employees together?
Yes, through We Switch Payroll. PAYE for direct staff, CIS verification, deduction statements and monthly returns for subcontractors, weekly if that is how the sites run.

Send us what you have. Even a photo.
A short call, no pressure. We check the public register before we speak to you, so we can tell you what is actually due, what it will cost if it is left, and which of it we can take off your desk this week.
