Since the inception of our business we have been working closely with Kirsten and the team at Black & White Accounting. Its so refreshing to be able to talk candidly about our business and what we are trying to achieve with Kirsten who shows an immense amount of knowledge, professionalism and is at all times attentive to our needs.  Kirsten is always speedy with her responses to our queries with her wonderful advice, suggestions and guidance – a rare trait in professional practices these days!  We would certainly recommend Kirsten and her team to any business out there requiring proficient, accurate, sound advice as well as providing the highest level of customer service.  Thanks guys.

Often it's better to hear direct from our clients what they think of the Black & White service. So every now and then we'll post client testimonials on this news page so you can rest assured knowing you are in good hands.

Dave Cheetham from Black & White Accounting is friendly, approachable and easy to get hold of.  He explains our accounts in simple language that we understand.  He always has time, always follow through with requests and gets back to us when he says he will.  Nothing is ever a problem.  We appreciate Dave's expertise and input into our farming business.

For the past five years we have had Dave Cheetham from Black & White Accounting as our accountant. 
We have found that for us and our business he has worked beside us in a positive, respectful and professional manner, and has always had our best interests at heart.  It was important for us and our business to have someone who would 'work for us' and give advice that would assist and further our professional development and business.

Dave's support and knowledge in the rural sector is extensive and he understands the demands on farming today.  He has visited us on our farm a number of times and has shown genuine interest in what we are doing and where we are heading.  This is above our expectations and it is reassuring to us to have him on our side.

Simon Hankins of Black & White Accounting has been my accountant for my childcare centre for 8 years now and I have found him to be excellent.  He is always on call and willing to do what is required, often at short notice.  His manner is friendly and makes working alongside your accountant a pleasant experience.
I have found that the financial side of my business has improved dramatically since Simon has been in control and he has taken a lot of the pressure off what normally would have been very stressful times.  He has a good association with my bank, IRD and business associates.  I regularly recommend Simon to colleagues and acquaintances for any accounting needs.  I have no intention of changing accountants as his services would be hard to replace.
