STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024


The directors present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2024.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
The directors are delighted to be able to report such a positive position for 2024. This follows a year of investment in which the senior leadership team committed resources to digitisation to support commercial, operational and financial efficiency. As a result, several key digital projects were delivered with the goal of maximising profitability whilst further improving service delivery and customer satisfaction.

Market conditions were less favourable during this reporting period than in 2023. The post-covid boon in construction that flourished in the years after the pandemic slowed, thanks mainly to geopolitical factors including the election of new governments in the UK and the USA. Subsequent policy change and the global uncertainty that followed certainly impacted the confidence of our core client base, mainly evidenced by a reluctance to commit investment beyond the very short term. Likewise, we saw materials price fluctuations in our supply chain as manufacturers were impacted by continued core cost pressure and the introduction of an ever more rigorous regulatory environment. For Barclay Roofing, this made maintaining the strong margins we have been able to achieve in recent years more challenging.

However, we were able to maintain our margin without compromising on quality or customer experience thanks to our various digital investments. These included the development of a bespoke purchasing system and an associated app. The implementation of the purchasing system, whilst being a 12-month investment of time and money, allowed complete transparency over purchasing habits, resulting in a far more acute ability to control costs. Likewise, the app that was created alongside the new purchasing system created significant operational efficiencies which resulted in further cost savings.

The company tightly manages its cash flow and working capital and uses several key performance indicators (KPI's) to further monitor its performance. The KPI's are considered to be those that communicate the financial performance of the company as a whole, these being turnover, gross profit, operating profit and net profit before tax:

2024 2023 Change
£ £
Turnover 8,982,145 10,396,996 -13.6%
Gross profit 2,853,927 3,103,040 -8.0%
Operating profit 876,710 1,360,904 -35.6%
Profit before tax 910,453 1,383,269 -34.2%

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The company closely monitors any potential risks and uncertainties within the roofing industry. The principal risks are detailed below:

Economy
The company receives a large proportion of its turnover from customers within the new build housing market and tier one contractors. Any fall in activity within the building sector may significantly impact on the turnover of the business. As such, the company is always susceptible to the economic volatility of the market, which could slow house building and new project launches, and see increases in material prices.

Competition
The company's customer base is primarily made up of national housebuilders and construction companies and it faces competition from a number of other roofing contractors within the industry. The company aims to mitigate this risk by regularly reviewing its margins and pricing within the market and maintaining close relationships with its principal customers.

Credit risk
This is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The company's policies are aimed at minimising such losses and require that deferred terms are only granted to customers who demonstrate an appropriate payment history and satisfy credit worthiness procedures.

BARCLAY ROOFING LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 02026578)

STRATEGIC REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES (continued)
Liquidity and cash flow
This is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The company aims to mitigate liquidity risk by managing cash generation from its operations, applying cash collection targets and regularly monitoring cash flow to ensure it can continue to meet its obligations as and when they fall due.

Labour availability
This is the risk that the company is unable to fulfil its service obligations or actively pursue new business due to a lack of skilled labour. The company aims to mitigate this risk by continuing to grow its apprenticeship and upskilling programmes whilst making careers in the company an attractive prospect by increasing wages in line with comparable trades.

FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
During 2025, we will build on the foundations laid during 2024. We will further consolidate and develop the purchasing system and will review our buying practise. We will also further develop our app to increase its beneficial functionality within the company.

We will also continue to build our workforce resilience by introducing a more robust training and development programme to ensure that we remain a great employer that offers the highest quality roofing services to our client base.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the Strategic Report, the Report of the Directors and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:

-select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he or she ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself or herself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024


AUDITORS
The auditors, Baines Jewitt Limited, will be proposed for re-appointment.

ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:





Mrs R E C Flounders - Director


1 September 2025

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
BARCLAY ROOFING LIMITED


Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Barclay Roofing Limited (the 'company') for the year ended 31 December 2024 which comprise the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement and Notes to the Cash Flow Statement, Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:
-give a true and fair view of the state of the company's affairs as at 31 December 2024 and of its profit for the year then ended;
-have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
- the information given in the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
- the Strategic Report and the Report of the Directors have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
BARCLAY ROOFING LIMITED


Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Strategic Report or the Report of the Directors.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
- certain disclosures of directors' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors' Responsibilities set out on page four, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Based on our understanding of the company and industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to building regulations, Health & Safety and Employment law, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006.

We evaluated management's opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls). Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

- discussions with management, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulation and fraud;
- evaluation and testing of the operating effectiveness of management's controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities;
- challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their significant accounting estimates; and
- identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations or posted by senior management.

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Auditors.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
BARCLAY ROOFING LIMITED


Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Barclay Roofing Limited is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Related party exemption
The company has taken advantage of exemption, under the terms of Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland', not to disclose related party transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries within the group.

Turnover
Turnover represents the amount derived from the provision of goods and services to customers after deduction of trade discounts and value added tax. Turnover is recognised at the point at which the risks and rewards of the goods are transferred to the customer and the services are rendered.

For long-term contracts, where the outcome can be estimated reliably, turnover is recognised by reference to the stage of completion. The stage of completion is measured by the proportion of contract costs incurred to date compared to the estimated total contract costs, reflective of both the materials content and labour costs.

Where the outcome of a long-term contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract turnover is recognised to the extent that contract costs will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. When it is possible that the total contract costs will exceed the total contract turnover, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Plant and machinery - 25% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost and 15% on cost
Motor vehicles - 25% on cost

Stocks
Work in progress is valued on the basis of direct costs and direct labour, at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Leasing commitments
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.

Grants
Capital based grants are credited to the profit and loss account in equal instalments over the estimated useful life of the related asset. Revenue based grants are credited to the profit and loss on receipt.
