Kevin, CSR Custom Street Rides

Kevin runs Custom Street Rides, a classic car restoration business, alongside Walsh Auto Services, his mechanical workshop. With two busy businesses, there’s always cars in the workshop, jobs on the go and customers to look after. 

“The last thing I want is to be worrying about accounting on top of everything else,” says Kevin. “I’m a mechanic, not an accountant, so I knew I needed help with the numbers from the start.” 

Kevin chose SBA because they were affordable, easy to deal with and understood small business. 

“They understood how my business worked straight away,” he says. “I’ve been with SBA ever since.” 

SBA looks after everything from GST and PAYE to tax planning, helping Kevin stay organised and always know where things stand. They’ve also supported him through business changes, including moving from a partnership to a company and setting up Custom Street Rides after running Walsh Auto Services for many years. 

“Working with SBA has saved me time and stress,” says Kevin. “It’s let me focus on what I enjoy most – building cars and looking after my customers.” 

We have over 80 branches nationwide so get in touch with your local SBA branch today and choose the accounting service that’s right for your business or rental investment.
