It specialised in a number of areas including roofing and asbestos removal. However, \u201cmounting financial pressure\u201d led the business closing.<\/p>\n<h3>Pressure from creditors saw the firm fold<\/h3>\n<p>Additional funding had been sought, as had a new buyer for the firm, but increasing creditor pressure meant GM Environmental Services &#8220;ultimately ruled out the possibility of the business being saved&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Administrators Begbies Traynor were appointed on 17 February. Ian McCulloch and Dean Watson will handle the process of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/self-build-homes-administration\/30199\" target=\"_blank\">shutting down the firm<\/a>. A handful of staff members have been kept on short-term to handle the administration process.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to the Nottingham Post, McCulloch said: &#8220;It is regrettable to see the demise of such a long standing and well-regarded business. However, due to external factors the closure became inevitable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are continuing to work with key members of staff to maximise realisations for the benefit of the company&#8217;s creditors and ensure that former employees receive their entitlements as soon as possible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Watson added: &#8220;The company has experienced delays in receiving payment on two significant jobs which has had a severe impact on its cash flow which has contributed to its failure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>A city council spokeswoman said: &#8220;There is no impact on current or future GM Environmental Services projects as we are meeting our requirements with alternative providers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Nottingham-based building maintenance firm has gone into administration, with all members of staff losing their jobs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[285],"tags":[661,592],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-31460","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-hr-skills-news","7":"tag-hr","8":"tag-skills"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Building maintenance firm collapses with 46 members of staff made redundant<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"A Nottingham-based building maintenance firm has gone into administration, with all 46 members of staff losing their jobs\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/hr-skills-news\/building-maintenance-firm-collapses\/31460\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Building maintenance firm collapses with 46 members of staff made redundant\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A Nottingham-based building maintenance firm has gone into administration, with all 46 members of staff losing their jobs\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/hr-skills-news\/building-maintenance-firm-collapses\/31460\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
