Building company goes to the wall

A LANARKSHIRE building contractor has gone bust, with the loss of 11 jobs.

Begbies Traynor said it had appointed Scott McGregor and Ken Pattullo as provisional liquidators of Hamilton-based CDW Limited.

The £7.5 million-turnover firm had been involved in major builds, including the The Point in Glasgow.

The company ceased trading on 27 January and the 11 staff at its Hamilton HQ have been made redundant, Pattullo confirmed. He added: “It appears to have been another victim of the economic downturn.”
