Complete DRY Cleaners Limited winding-up petition dismissed
Active Company no. 08365192 Incorporated Jan 2013 WR postcode area
36 Harrington Road, Worcester, WR2 5HD
The most recent insolvency notice for Complete DRY Cleaners Limited is a Dismissal of winding up petition, published 16 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by POZITIVE ENERGY LTD. The case is before the Royal Courts Of Justice (case No CR-2026-006378 of 2026). The petition was listed to be heard on 07 October 2026 — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 March 2025, showed total assets of £15k and net assets of -£31k. On those figures the company was already balance-sheet insolvent — its liabilities exceeded its assets — at that date, 18 months before its first insolvency notice. 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.
