Assets include 14 ongoing construction contracts in excess of 拢90m total contract value as well as land and property.

In the year to April 2020 the Hessle-based company made a loss of 拢354,000 before tax on turnover of 拢83m.

Joint administrator Phil Deyes said: 鈥樷橳he company has experienced challenging market conditions including the timely delivery of a number of recent projects, resource issues within the sector principally as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, and contractual disputes with private clients including a recent significant lost adjudication. New work opportunities have been delayed as a result of the uncertainty in the economic and political environment causing a significant fall in turnover. The company had fallen behind with payments to its creditors and sub-contractor supply chain, culminating in a winding up petition being served on the company on 4th January.鈥
