Bailey Fabrications Limited faces a winding-up petition

Office No. 47 Basepoint, Aerodrome Road, Gosport, PO13 0FQ
The most recent insolvency notice for Bailey Fabrications Limited is a Petitions to wind up (Companies), published 22 September 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by SPEEDY ASSET SERVICES LIMITED. The case is before the Liverpool District Registry Court (case CR-2026-LIV-000272). The petition was listed to be heard on 27 October 2026 at 10:30am — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 28 September 2024, showed total assets of £1.0m and net assets of £316k. Those accounts were filed 24 months before the first insolvency notice, so they describe the company well before the process began. 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.
The petitioning creditor is another company, so the debt behind the petition is a commercial one — typically an unpaid invoice, rent, or a judgment that went unsatisfied — rather than a tax liability.

Petitions to wind up (Companies) 22 Sep 2026
A petition to wind up Bailey Fabrications Limited has been filed and will be heard in Liverpool on 27 October 2026.
What happens next
At the hearing the court decides whether to make a winding-up order. Until it does, the petition can still be dismissed or withdrawn — if the debt is paid, if it is genuinely disputed on substantial grounds, if the company has a cross-claim larger than the debt, or if the court is persuaded to adjourn while a rescue or refinancing is put in place. If an order is made, the company stops trading, its bank accounts are frozen, control passes to the Official Receiver and a liquidator is appointed to sell the assets and pay creditors in the order fixed by law.
