Significant events
- “The Company's turnover for the year decreased by 11% to £6.4 million (2023: £7.2million) driven by weak construction markets and price pressure on sales. Profit before taxation amounted to £0.05 million (2023: £0.3 million). The balance sheet as at 31 December 2024 demonstrates that the financial position of the Company has decreased with net assets of £5.5 million (2023: £5.6 million), which is attributable to the net loss of £0.1 million.”

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
