Small Claims advice needed please.

Found out who owns the company, but when I visited their address it is just basically a shed in a garden centre, so if I was to go to the small claims and instruct the bailiffs there would be nothing there of value. So....would I be better off to keep hunting and find out his home address and serve the summons there, or are the bailiffs allowed to go to any address he resides at to get the money??

If it is a company (i.e. limited liability - Ltd after the name) then you must serve at its registered office or another trading address.0 -

If I served it at the business address, would the bailiffs only be able to take stuff from that address (if it got that far) or could they go to his house address too?? (As if they could only get equipment from the address used in court, then I would have to find his house address out and serve it there).“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”
