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 to 31 October 2023 we took a strategic decision to restructure the trade counter operations within our subsidiary Space Age Building Products Limited ("Space Age"). This change process was completed in the current year with the closure of our operations in Reading and the cessation of all operations in Space Age.”
- “The business in GJB New Build Limited has benefited from the restructuring carried out over the previous two years and continues to deliver growth in turnover and profitability despite a difficult market for build volumes in the new housing sector.”
- “We have responded to the growing demand for our products with significant increases in capacity. Some of this has been delivered through capital expenditure investing in new plant and equipment and other significant increases have been delivered through the efforts of our colleagues in constantly improving the way in which we work.”
- “During the financial year we made further CAPEX investments of £683,658 and this investment programme has continued into the current financial year. We are also pleased to announce that in the financial year we launched our proprietary software tool "EasyConnect" which enables our customers to have immediate access to product images and pricing from a tablet which significantly adds to their ability to provide rapid and well-presented quotes to potential customers.”
- “Since the year end we have continued to pursue the various improvement projects underway in the year to October 2024. We recognise the reality of the market challenges arising from the level of consumer confidence and continue to work closely with our customers and suppliers to maintain trading volumes.”
