A Wolverhampton motor vehicle maintenance and repair business incorporated in May 2022 has been wound up through a creditors' voluntary liquidation, with a liquidator appointed on 20 May 2026.
Adept Valeting Ltd, which traded as Adept Valeting and operated from 3 Taylor Road, Wolverhampton, WV4 6HP, was placed into a CVL after just four years of trading. A CVL is an insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the directors' request, without a court order.
The liquidator
Laura Anne Walshe of Keywood Group Limited, based at Gill House, 140 Holyhead Road, Birmingham, West Midlands, B21 0AF, was appointed liquidator. Walshe holds IP number 26250. The appointment was made by both members and creditors, as recorded in the London Gazette notice published on 27 May 2026.
A liquidator realises the company's assets and distributes the proceeds to creditors. Adept Valeting had no registered secured charges at the time of the appointment.

Common questions
Are you owed money by Adept Valeting Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Adept Valeting Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Adept Valeting Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Adept Valeting Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
