It has been a pleasure to do business with people that are of sound integrity and so well respected in the business community. I have enjoyed our relationship with our accountants and I regularly recommend them to other businessmen that I know.

Manning Masonry, Inc. has utilized the services of Pittard Perry & Crone accounting firm for 13 years. Their services have been used on a business level as well as a personal level. We have been very pleased with the manner in which our partner and his team have handled our company yearly tax preparation and financial statements. Our partner and his team have been available to assist our company whenever necessary and they have been extremely diligent with their attention and guidance.

Roger Manning, President, Manning Masonry, Inc.

From our point of view, PP&C’s greatest strength is the professionalism of their partners and the continuity of their entire staff. We get partner-level attention from start to finish during our annual audit process. The audit team is deep, experienced and knows our company well. Like all accounting firms, PP&C brings on new accountants from time to time, but we do not experience rapid turnover at the manager and staff accountant levels as is often the case with larger firms. Thus, we avoid having to go through a re-education process every year, the auditors can focus on the constantly-changing issues impacting our company and the quality of our financial statements is higher.

During the course of our relationship we have found that our accountants have given us sound advice about planning our business growth and preparing our tax strategies. We have not had any concerns when we get contacted by the IRS pertaining to audits or tax matters. We are confident that we are being represented by some of the best professional accountants there are in the business. In twenty years we have never had a fine or a penalty due to the services provided to us by our accountants.

PP&C provides tax planning and strategic services as well as overall financial advice to us personally and for the corporation. While these services are essential to run the business, I most appreciate their ability to make complex concepts easy to understand.
