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

- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“The company's forecasts and projections, taking account of reasonably possible changes in trading performance, show that the company should have sufficient cash resources to meet its requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements. Accordingly, the adoption of the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements remains appropriate.”
Significant events
- “The company continued its principal activity of building and property preservation throughout the year.”
- “Significant uncertainty in the UK macro-economic environment due to the UK decision to exit membership of the European Union, exacerbated by COVID-19 pandemic and tragic events in Ukraine.”
- “Principal risk arising from this uncertainty relates to the company's supply chain, with products ultimately sourced from overseas. Issues with construction materials availability and price increases.”
- “UK interest rates remain elevated but are beginning to fall, which could impact on demand for the Company's services.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
