Hi.
I forgot to say. At the level your quoting Nick you won't need to be VAT registered, the advantage being no VAT on your labour charges although you will be passing on the VAT on spares, insurance and other items with VAT.
Remember to do your books properly, do it right and there is no need for an accountant, £1200 is way OTT, my accountant was never over £300, picking one that's retired is the best way. Like I say though a little business can be run less an accountant.
Regarding safety, not every radio falls into the electrical safety trap, a lot of AC only sets will pass a PAT ok in class 2, some won't but can be made perfectly safe.
Hope you have better success than many others.
