Public contracts won
James Wilkes Limited has 6 public sector contract awards on record; the ones with their own published value total £992K, from 2015 to 2025. Source: Contracts Finder and Find a Tender award notices. For 2 of them the published figure is a shared or multi-year ceiling (a framework place, a multi-supplier award, or more than a small company could hold alone), so no value is shown. These were matched by the company's exact name because the notice gave no company number.

Filing notes for property development companies
Many property development companies are single-project vehicles. Stock of land and buildings sits on the balance sheet as work in progress until sale, and a company that has finished its project may become dormant rather than close.
