The most recent insolvency notice for Bromley Timber and Builders Merchant LTD is a Meetings of creditors (Administration), published 08 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The office holders are Andrew R Bailey; Martin C Armstrong, appointed 12 August 2026. The case is before the Business and Property Courts in England And Wales (case CR-2026-006198). Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 July 2025, showed total assets of £1.5m and net assets of £817k. Those accounts were filed 12 months before the first insolvency notice, so they describe the company well before the process began. Administration is a formal insolvency process in which licensed insolvency practitioners (the administrators) take control of a company to try to rescue it as a going concern, or — where that is not possible — to achieve a better result for creditors than an immediate winding-up and to realise the assets. A statutory moratorium halts most legal action against the company while the administrators act.
