The most recent insolvency notice for Heat-king Building Maintenance LTD is a Petitions to wind up (Companies), published 30 October 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by HM Revenue & Customs. The case is before the High Court of Justice (case CR-2026-007314 of 2026). The petition is listed to be heard on 11 November 2026 at 10:30 hours. 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.
HMRC is the petitioning creditor, so the debt behind the petition is unpaid tax — most often VAT, PAYE or corporation tax — rather than a trade debt. HMRC petitions usually follow a long run of missed payments and ignored demands.
