Dentist surgery owners may be interested to know that they could be entitled to a great deal of cash refunds, i.e. tax relief.

This is also called embedded capital allowances and can be claimed on items that are considered part of the property. These refunds are available to commercial property owners who may have been overpaying a great deal of tax.

The concept of these tax refunds may be a slightly new one to many people because a lot of commercial property owners believe that their accountants will have already made a claim for these allowances, however this is most often not the case because even the most efficient accountants are unlikely to have a specialist team or knowledge of the HMRC guidelines that are needed to deal with these claims. This is why capital allowance specialists are needed to help identify and make a claim.

Typically, the process of making a claim is quick and stress free and usually takes no longer than 10 weeks. The process itself usually requires minimum input from the property owner, as the capital allowance specialists deal with most of the work, which involves assessing the property details, surveying the property, preparing a report to submit to HMRC and then waiting for the cash refund. During this process, the dentist simply provides the relevant property details with which the specialists will use to identify and make a claim.
