Short answer

We cover Swansea from our Gloucester office, in person or by Zoom. The first conversation is free, confidential and informal.

How we help Swansea companies

Swansea directors often reach us after a run of smaller problems rather than one dramatic event: a slow quarter, a customer that folded owing money, a VAT bill that got rolled forward and then grew.

Cases like that are frequently more rescuable than the director assumes, because there is a viable business underneath. The conversation is about which liabilities are negotiable, which are not, and how much time the company really has.

Where the company cannot continue, closing it through a Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation means you choose the timing. Where the trade is sound, continuing it through a new company is often the route that protects the most jobs.

The local business mix

Across Swansea, Neath and Port Talbot we work with construction and civils firms, engineering and fabrication businesses, care and support providers, retail and hospitality in the city, and a growing number of digital and professional practices.

Public-sector and framework contracts are common here, and they bring their own issue: payment is reliable but slow, and the working capital gap is carried by the supplier. That gap is what usually needs managing.

How meetings work

Swansea is covered from our Gloucester office. In practice most first conversations here happen by Zoom, which loses nothing, and Michael will travel to meet you where an in-person meeting matters.

There is no Swansea street address on this page because we do not have premises there. You still get the same named adviser throughout.

An anonymised example: a South Wales contractor working on framework terms faced a working-capital gap after a customer failed. Dealing with the most pressing creditor first created room to plan. Details are changed and no outcome is promised.

Swansea questions

Do you have an office in Swansea?

No. South West Wales is covered from our Gloucester office, on 0345 017 9773.

A customer went into liquidation owing us money. What can we do?

You can claim in their liquidation, though recovery is often limited. The more urgent question is the hole it leaves in your own company, and that is what the first conversation addresses.

Do you cover Neath, Port Talbot and Llanelli?

Yes, and the surrounding area.

How soon can we speak?

Usually the same day. Call 0345 017 9773 and say what has happened.
