Wayflyer Financial Designated Activity Company, a Dublin-based revenue-based lender, filed a winding-up petition against CRT Flooring Specialists Limited on 23 April 2025, claiming to be a creditor of the Chorley flooring contractor.
A winding-up petition is a court filing by a creditor asking the court to make a winding-up order. Filing a petition does not place a company into liquidation; the court must first consider the matter at a hearing before any order can be made. CRT Flooring Specialists remains listed as active at Companies House.
The petition carries court reference CR-2026-LDS-000422 and is listed before the Business and Property Courts in Leeds, formally the Insolvency and Companies List (ChD), the specialist Chancery Division list that handles corporate insolvency applications. The notice was published on 27 May 2026. Wayflyer Financial is registered at One Spencer Dock, North Wall Quay, Dublin.
The company
CRT Flooring Specialists Limited is registered at 41 St. Thomas's Road, Chorley, Lancashire. Its Companies House SIC classification is floor and wall covering work, placing it in the construction finishing trades. The company was incorporated on 21 January 2009.
The directors
Two directors currently appear on the Companies House record. David Ian Dale was appointed on 6 December 2024, and David Jenkins was appointed on 11 August 2025. A third director, Eifion Serge Weinzweig, was appointed on 11 August 2025 but resigned on 2 March 2026.

Craig Ian Donnelly served as a director from 1 November 2019 until 23 July 2021. Jenna Morris held the role of secretary from 1 November 2019 until 9 January 2023.
Secured charges
Three outstanding registered charges sit against the company. Christopher Turner, the former director, holds a registered charge created on 11 August 2025, the same date his directorship ended. That charge covers freehold and leasehold property, plant and machinery, book debts, goodwill and uncalled capital, and contains fixed and floating charge elements as well as a negative pledge and disposal restriction.
A second charge was registered by Bibby Financial Services Limited, also created on 11 August 2025 and delivered to Companies House the following day. A third charge was created on 7 January 2026 in favour of Morley Capital LTD trading as Simply Funded, and delivered on 13 January 2026.

Common questions
What does a winding-up petition mean for Crt Flooring Specialists Limited?
A petition is a court filing, not a court order. Crt Flooring Specialists Limited is not yet in liquidation. The court will consider the petition at the date listed in the notice; until then, the company continues to trade, but its bank may freeze accounts and counterparties may stop extending credit. The court can dismiss the petition, adjourn it, or grant a winding-up order.
Are you owed money by Crt Flooring Specialists Limited?
You are not yet a creditor in a liquidation; the company is still trading. If you support the petition, you may file a notice of support at the court named in the notice. If the petition is granted, you become an unsecured creditor in the resulting compulsory liquidation and the Official Receiver will invite you to submit a proof of debt.
Did you work at Crt Flooring Specialists Limited?
A petition does not by itself terminate your employment. Wages and holiday pay continue to accrue until the company stops paying you or is wound up. Watch the bank position closely; if accounts are frozen, payroll will be the first thing to fail. If the petition is granted, statutory redundancy and notice claims become payable from the Redundancy Payments Service.
Are you a director of Crt Flooring Specialists Limited?
Once a petition is filed, the company's directors have a heightened duty to consider the interests of creditors. Continuing to trade where there is no reasonable prospect of avoiding insolvent liquidation can expose directors to personal liability for wrongful trading under Section 214 of the Insolvency Act 1986. Specialist insolvency advice should be taken immediately.
