Since 1 February 2026, Companies House charges £100 to incorporate a company digitally, up from £50 previously. Every company also needs a registered office address, and that address appears publicly on the Companies House register for anyone to see. Using a home address is the most common mistake new founders make, and it is difficult to undo once the company is formed.
We handle the incorporation itself, provide a registered office address if you need one, and set your company up correctly from day one. Once formed, most new companies move straight into business startup support and bookkeeping, so your records are correct from the first transaction.
Anyone can search the Companies House register and see your registered office address, along with your directors’ names and filing history. Founders who use their home address often only realise this after it starts appearing in searches, marketing lists, and unsolicited mail. This is exactly why the address choice matters at formation, not afterwards. We provide a registered office address as part of this service, so your home address never needs to appear on the public register.
This service suits anyone forming a new UK limited company from Slough or further afield.
