Sussex based contractor Canbury Construction has been placed into administration.

The firm provided pre-construction, construction management, main contractor and design and build services across all sectors including residential, commercial, leisure and retail.

Michael Sanders and Georgina Eason of MHA MacIntyre Hudson have been appointed Joint Administrators of the company.

A statement from Canbury said: “It is with deep regret that recent financial circumstances have meant the directors have taken steps to place Canbury Construction Limited into administration.”

Latest accounts for the company for the year to December 31 2020 show a turnover of £29.5m generating a pre-tax profit of £198,000 with the business employing 13 staff.
