Vat you do not need to registar for until you reach around £50 K (ok i think its 56k) turnover.
You must inform the tax man of starting a new business with in three months of the start or face a fine
A Prochem course is also very avisable and they do courses that not only tell you about carpets and cleaning them but about the business side,
Hope this helps
