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
- “Our order book for 2025 and 2026 is very positive and we are currently in negotiations with our clients to secure future works for the next 2/3 years.”
- “The residential market is challenging due to a number of factors, most notably inflation, Interest rate increases and delays due to planning regulations. The number of new builds had decreased, and we expect this trend to continue for the next 18 months, however we do anticipate a strong rebound thereafter.”
- “Throughout the year we continued to invest in all areas of the business with a major emphasis in our Safe Systems, Quality Management and a new Head Office location.”
- “Our focus in 2025 is to continue to increase efficiency and productivity across all departments within the business and to improve our level of excellence whilst introducing new technology to the business.”
- “The impending challenges in 2025 will continue to be inflationary led issues with respect to material and labour. We are forecasting price variations into our tender submissions and anticipating that this will continue for some time into the future.”
