Trademark classes · By business type
Which trademark classes does a construction company need?
Most construction companies register in class 37 (Construction & repair).
Building, installation and repair work sits in the construction-services class. Architecture and engineering design are classified separately as technical services, and selling materials falls in the relevant goods class.

Before you file in class 37, make sure the name is free. If it's already taken, your application can be refused — and the £205 IPO fee isn't refunded. Checking takes seconds and costs nothing.

Frequently asked questions
- What trademark class is a construction company in?
- Most construction companies register in class 37. Class 37 covers construction & repair. You only ever register the classes that match what you actually sell.
- Do construction companies need to register in more than one class?
- Often, yes. A trademark is only protected in the classes you register, and you pay a fee for each one. Construction companies usually start with class 37, then add others as the business grows.
- How much does it cost a construction company to register a trademark?
- Filing direct with the UK IPO costs £205 for the first class and £60 for each additional class, so a construction company covering class 37 pays about £205. The fee isn't refunded if your mark is refused — which is why checking the name is free first matters. See the full cost breakdown .
