What this notice means
A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.

What happens next
The liquidator now realises the company's assets, invites creditors to prove their debts, and distributes what is recovered in the statutory order: the costs of the liquidation, preferential creditors (including employees' unpaid wages up to the statutory cap), secured creditors, then unsecured creditors. The liquidator must also report on the conduct of the directors. The company is normally dissolved about three months after the liquidator's final account.

How does this notice affect you?
Choose what applies and we'll point you at the right next step.
A written-off invoice rarely stops at the company that failed. The supplier left short is often the next business in difficulty — and the earlier that's dealt with, the more options stay open. If DIAMOND CONSTRUCTIONS LTD owed you money, it's worth checking where that leaves you.
Unpaid wages, holiday pay and statutory redundancy are claimed from the government's Redundancy Payments Service, not from K2. The insolvency practitioner named in this notice should send you a case reference — you'll need it to claim.
K2's founder has turned around UK businesses since 1990, and K2 has backed and restructured them since 2001, including buying trade and assets out of distress. These situations move in days rather than months, so if you're looking at DIAMOND CONSTRUCTIONS LTD or something similar, start the conversation early.
If your business is under pressure — creditors circling, a petition threatened, or cash running out — acting early changes the outcome. K2's founder has helped UK directors turn things around since 1990. Talk to us in confidence.
Is your own business showing the same warning signs?
Falling margins, stretched creditors, overdue filings and HMRC arrears usually appear months before a Gazette notice. Directors who act at that stage keep far more options open, from an informal turnaround to a CVA or restructuring plan.

The liquidator must also report on the conduct of the directors. The company is normally dissolved about three months after the liquidator's final account.
Who is dealing with the liquidation?
The office holder named in the notice: J Peacock, appointed 01 July 2026. Creditors, employees and anyone holding goods or money belonging to the company should contact them directly, quoting the company number and case number No 003745 of 2026.
Why did the company go into liquidation?
The Gazette notice records the legal step, not the cause, so it does not say why the company failed. Its last filed accounts, to 30 April 2025, showed liabilities exceeding assets by £959k. For a fuller picture, look in the company's filing history at Companies House for the statement of affairs or the office holder's reports, where these have been filed.
How much did the company owe?
The notice does not give a figure. The closest public number is total liabilities of £1.4m in its last filed accounts, to 30 April 2025. What was owed when the process began will differ, and is set out in the statement of affairs.
How many jobs are affected?
The notice does not say. The last filed accounts recorded an average of 3 employees in the period to 30 April 2025, which is the closest public figure and may be out of date.
The company owes me money — what can I do?
You are a creditor in the process. The insolvency practitioner named in the notice will write to known creditors and invite claims; if you have not heard from them, contact them with your invoices. Unsecured creditors rank after fixed-charge holders, the costs of the insolvency, preferential creditors and floating-charge holders, so recovery depends on what is left in the estate.
I worked there — how do I claim what I am owed?
Unpaid wages, holiday pay and statutory redundancy are claimed from the government's Redundancy Payments Service, not from the company or from K2. The insolvency practitioner named in this notice should give you a case reference to claim with.
