Start Solar G.B. LTD winding-up petition dismissed
Active Company no. 14209971 Incorporated Jul 2022 Construction M postcode area
Unit 6, Southern Ind Estate Southern Street, Walkden, Worsley, M28 3QN
The most recent insolvency notice for Start Solar G.B. LTD is a Dismissal of winding up petition, published 08 September 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by ESSENTIAL ACCESS PLATFORMS LIMITED. The case is before the High Court of Justice, Business and Property Courts (case CR-2026-MAN-000904). The petition was listed to be heard on 4 August 2026 — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 December 2024, showed total assets of £598k and net assets of -£327k. 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.

A bad debt this size rarely stops with the company that failed. If you're a supplier or creditor left short, it's worth knowing where you rank — and checking what the shortfall does to your own cashflow.
