Sound familiar?
Incorporated last week. Not sure what happens now.
Most people form a limited company online and then discover the questions start. When do the first accounts need filing? What does the corporation tax deadline look like? Should you register for VAT now or wait? These are not complicated questions, but getting them wrong in the first year costs more to fix than getting them right first time.
- Registered on Companies House but unclear what your obligations actually are
- No idea when first accounts, CT600, or confirmation statement are due
- Unsure whether to register for VAT or which scheme fits your business
What a proper setup looks like
Formation handled correctly, your compliance calendar mapped from the day you incorporate, and practical advice on structure before you commit to anything. Considerably less to figure out on your own.
- Company formed with a structure that works for your situation from day one
- First-year deadlines mapped, monitored, and managed well in advance
- VAT registration handled once you know which scheme actually fits
- Fixed-fee pricing with no surprise bills as your company grows

Everything your new company needs from the start
From formation through to ongoing compliance, Supreme Consulting covers the full picture so nothing gets missed and no deadline creeps up on you.
Company Formation and Setup
Your company is registered at Companies House with the right share structure, director appointments, and SIC codes from the outset. Registered office service is available if you need a Lymington address for official correspondence. Getting the setup right now means considerably less to unpick later.
Included as standardFirst-Year Compliance Handled
Your first year as a limited company carries more deadlines than most people realise — statutory accounts, CT600, confirmation statement, and potentially VAT returns. Each one is tracked, prepared, and filed on time. You will know your tax position well before any HMRC deadline lands.
Full compliance coverageOngoing Bookkeeping and Advisory
Monthly bookkeeping on Xero or QuickBooks Online keeps your records current and your tax position visible throughout the year. Questions about salary and dividend strategy, VAT thresholds, or whether to bring on a first employee get answered when they arise, not at year end.
Cloud accounting includedClients across Hampshire, different sizes
From sole traders starting out to owner-managed limited companies, Supreme Consulting has helped businesses across Hampshire and the South Coast get their finances in order from day one.

What makes this different from any other accountant in Lymington
Twenty-one years of practice, fixed-fee pricing, and an approach built on plain-English advice rather than accounting theory.
21 years of formation experience
Supreme Consulting has been helping business owners in Hampshire incorporate and set up correctly since 2005. That means the questions that catch first-time directors out are ones Stuart has already seen many times. The answers are practical, not theoretical.
Formation with compliance built in
A lot of accountants handle formation as a one-off transaction. Supreme Consulting treats it as the start of an ongoing relationship — which means your compliance calendar, cloud accounting setup, and VAT position are all mapped from day one. Nothing falls through a gap because nobody was watching.
Fixed fee, no surprises
Formation, first-year accounts, ongoing bookkeeping — all priced on a fixed or monthly retainer basis, agreed upfront. No hourly billing that balloons without warning and no vague quotes that change once the work starts. You know what you are paying before you agree to anything.
Up and running in four steps
The process is straightforward. Most clients are set up and operational within a few days of making first contact.
A brief discovery call
A no-obligation conversation to understand your business, what you are trying to build, and what the right structure looks like for your situation. You will leave the call knowing what happens next, which is more than most people know going in.
A clear, fixed-fee proposal
You receive a written proposal covering exactly what is included, the fixed fee, and the timeline. No ambiguity about scope, no hourly rates ticking in the background. If it does not suit, there is no obligation to proceed.
Formation and onboarding
Supreme Consulting handles the Companies House registration, sets up your cloud accounting platform, and maps your compliance deadlines. You provide the information once; everything else is handled.
Your company, properly supported
From here, your accounts are current, your deadlines are tracked, and questions get answered the day you ask them. The administrative side of running a limited company becomes considerably less of a thing you have to think about.
“Stuart is a thorough efficient worker who produces good quality results at a reasonable price.”
What people usually ask before getting started
Can you handle the Companies House registration, or do I need to do that part myself?
Supreme Consulting handles the full registration process on your behalf, including choosing the right SIC code, setting up the share structure, and appointing directors correctly. If you have already incorporated and want to transfer the accountancy work across, that is straightforward too. You do not need to have done anything in advance before making contact.
What does company formation and first-year accounting actually cost?
Pricing is fixed-fee and agreed in writing before any work begins. The quote covers the scope discussed — formation, registered office if required, first-year statutory accounts, CT600, and confirmation statement. Additional services such as bookkeeping, payroll, and VAT are priced separately and clearly. There are no hourly rates and no bills that arrive without warning.
I have already incorporated but my bookkeeping is a mess. Can you still help?
Catch-up and clean-up work is a fairly routine part of what Supreme Consulting does. Whether the books have been neglected for a few months or are in some state of disarray going back further, the process starts with understanding what needs sorting and quoting a fixed fee for the catch-up. The cost depends on the volume of work involved, and that is established before anything starts.
Is there a minimum contract term or lock-in period?
There is no long-term contract. Most clients stay because the service works for them, not because they are tied in. If after three months the arrangement is not right, you leave with clean, up-to-date records and nothing further owed. Notice terms are kept short and are set out clearly in the engagement letter.
Do I need to register for VAT when I form the company, or can that wait?
VAT registration is only compulsory once your taxable turnover crosses the registration threshold, which is currently £90,000 in a rolling 12-month period. Voluntary registration before that point can make sense in some circumstances — for example, if you are buying significant amounts of VAT-bearing goods or services, or if your customers are VAT-registered businesses themselves. This is one of the decisions worth discussing at the outset rather than revisiting later.
How should I pay myself from my limited company, and when should I start thinking about that?
The most tax-efficient approach for most owner-managed companies involves a combination of salary and dividends, with the salary set at a level that preserves your National Insurance record without triggering a large PAYE liability. The right numbers depend on your personal circumstances, other income sources, and whether you have other shareholders. Supreme Consulting covers this as part of the setup conversation so you are not making ad hoc decisions partway through your first year.
