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

- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “In the year ended 31 December 2024, sales dropped by approximately 7% but this is attributed to the poor weather conditions experienced throughout most of the year. Heavy rain meant that there were significant delays and periods of reduced output. Whist the current year is also being adversely affected, the directors are confident that profitability will improve going forward. The recent change in government and their aim of increasing house building should also help future results. The revenue target for this financial year was maintained with the annual output in Construction in the UK seeing an increase in 2024 compared with 2023. The construction output for the UK is forecasted to rise in 2025 with the Company's 2025 pipeline strong. Supply of appropriately skilled labour continues to be an issue despite the business not being directly impacted by Brexit.”
Auditor, going-concern and subsidiary information is drawn from the narrative of the latest annual accounts. About these numbers
