Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

Significant events
- “During the year, the business faced further unprecedented external pressures. The industry continued to face rising prices of materials, supply chains unable to keep up with demand, rising cost of labour and a slowing down of the housing market which all had a continued impact on profitability. During the period we have successfully negated the full impact on the company by these external factors by renegotiating and implementing contract price increases.”
- “During 2024, there remained uncertainty for the UK economy not only for the current year but also moving into 2025, with high costs, inflation, and a slowing in the housing market. These factors forced our clients and the company to operate at reduced output levels. During 2025 we have seen stronger demand from customers.”
- “Freehold land and buildings were valued on a market value basis on 29 October 2024 by Pygott and Crone Commercial Limited RICS.”
