I've got to have my back fence replaced which is going to cost me about £300. Would I be able to put this through as expenses?

If you would not have replaced the fence unless you were childminding, then you can put it all through...

If you would have replaced it anyway, I suggest you claim for 1/2. :D

I'd say yes on the basis that I was told I can use a grant to get new fence panels so they must class it as a business expense.

I think I would go with what Sarah advises xx seems sound x

I agree with Sarah

Thanks for the replies.

I probably would of replaced the fence eventually but it's become urgent because of minding so I guess half would probably be acceptable.

Mind you, who knows with the Inland Revenue.
