NG CONTRACTING LTD.
Company number SC224212 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
NG Contracting Ltd is a well-established, family-owned specialist construction contractor in the Scottish Borders that has grown its net assets to £1.6M through consistent investment in plant and machinery. While the company shows resilience and profitability, its significant hire purchase obligations and negative working capital leave it exposed to sector-wide margin pressures and interest rate volatility typical of the UK construction SME landscape. Its competitive position is supported by asset ownership and longevity, but liquidity remains a key watchpoint.
