CALIBRE BUILDING SERVICES LIMITED
Company number 07612610 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Calibre Building Services is a growing, cash-positive and fully compliant M&E maintenance contractor, but it is converting revenue growth into progressively less profit: turnover rose 7.6% to £29.0m while pre-tax profit fell 56% to £433k and net assets dropped 43% to £569k after dividends of £741k were paid from reserves. The core pathology is margin compression (19.2% vs 20.3%) combined with overhead growth of 14.6%, leaving the business only about 8% above break-even revenue and with a thin equity cushion. The prognosis is stable but conditional — profitability should recover if margins are restored to 20%+ and distributions are rebased, but a further 1.5 percentage point margin slip would push the company into loss, making contract-level margin control the single most important lever for FY2027.
