UK Company Search: Frequently Asked Questions

How do I search for a company in the UK?

Enter the company name or registration number into DataGardener’s UK company search. Our search predictor suggests matching companies as you type — even a partial name returns relevant results instantly across our database of 16 million UK companies.

A UK company search on DataGardener returns a company’s registration details, filing history, financials, director and shareholder information, credit risk score, legal issues such as CCJs, property holdings, import and export activity, and verified contact details.

How do I check if a UK company is legitimate?

Run a company check on DataGardener. Verify the company registration number against Companies House records, check director appointment history, review filed accounts and look for any CCJs or insolvency notices. A recently incorporated company with no filed accounts and no verifiable address is a red flag.

How do I find a company's financial information?

Navigate to the company page on DataGardener by entering the company name or registration number, then select the financial tab. You can view turnover, net assets, profit trends, liabilities and solvency ratios — all sourced from official Companies House filings.

Will the company know I have searched for them?

No. DataGardener does not maintain search records and the company you look up will not be notified or aware that you have run a company check on them.

Can I download a company report from DataGardener?

Yes. DataGardener produces two types of reports. A Company Report combines financial accounts, ratios, debenture information and property data. A Credit Report uses company-specific data to indicate credit strength and assess risk. Both can be downloaded directly from the platform.
