We check all the boxes so you don’t have to.

A staggering 2349 construction firms have collapsed in the past year — with fears more may fall soon. Indeed, of the 8471 business collapses for 2023, almost 28 per cent were in the building and construction industry, according to data put out by the corporate regulator.

process that is accountable, transparent and delivers the best possible outcomes for all.
