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 group's and parent 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
- “During the year, the group took the difficult decision to restructure its Special Works department following a period of under-performance.”
- “The group has had success in recruiting suitable additional members for our Project Teams, which has supported the growth of the group in the year.”
- “Ordinary dividends were paid amounting to £250,000.”
- “After the reporting date, the directors have proposed a dividend of £27,927.63 per £1.00 Ordinary A Share, totaling £4,245,000. The dividend has not been provided for in these financial statements as there was no obligation to pay it at 31 December 2025.”
