Start your limited company the right way
Advice on whether a company is right for you, then everything set up properly: Companies House, HMRC, banking and your first deadlines.
Is a limited company right for you?
A limited company can save tax and protect your personal assets, but it also brings more paperwork and responsibilities. Before you register, we compare a company with working as a sole trader using your expected profit, and explain the real difference in tax and admin.
What we do
- Check your company name is available and suitable
- Register the company at Companies House with the right share structure
- Guide you through director identity verification
- Registered office address, if you would like to use ours
- Register for Corporation Tax, PAYE and VAT where needed
- Set up bookkeeping software and connect your business bank account
- Explain your duties as a director and your first filing deadlines
Shareholders and structure
Getting the share structure right at the start is far easier than changing it later. We advise on shares for co-founders, spouses and investors, and on paying yourself through salary and dividends.
Already trading?
If you are a sole trader moving into a company, we help you transfer the business, including equipment, stock and goodwill, and make sure the change is tax-efficient.

Common questions
How long does it take to form a company?
Once identity checks are done, Companies House usually registers a company within one working day of an online application.
Do directors need to verify their identity?
Yes. Under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act, directors and people with significant control must verify their identity with Companies House. We guide you through it.
Can I use your address as my registered office?
We can provide a registered office address at our Green Lanes office, so your home address stays off the public register. Ask us for details.
