UK construction company Onespace Group enters administration

On its website, Onespace says it has completed 532 projects to date and that it has a team of 30 people.

Companies House shows that the firm was only incorporated in June 2023.

It says that the business works to provide “dynamic, bespoke environments that perfectly match the needs of the companies we serve”.

The website adds: “We are committed to going above and beyond to understand each individual client perspective and get it right first time, every time.

“We reimagine and bring space to life with bespoke delivery, driven by what’s best for you. We know the key to this lies in understanding your individuality.”

Major projects completed by the firm include the full refurbishment and fit-out of the existing players’ lounge at Liverpool FC, and the fit-out and refurbishment of multiple laboratories at the Oxford Trust’s Innovation Centre.

The Gazette, which is an official record where notices placed by administrators are published, revealed the news that the company had entered administration.

Companies House has since confirmed that administrators have been appointed and that the registered office address has changed from Knutsford to Manchester.

Other major companies to enter administration in 2026

Onespace Group is the latest of many companies across the UK that have ceased trading or gone into administration this year.

Retail company Quiz confirmed earlier this month that it was closing its online store and starting a stock clearance sale across physical outlets.

Similarly, fashion retailer LK Bennett has also entered administration, with all stores to close.

Meanwhile, UK broadband company Vispa, has also ceased trading and informed customers to find a new provider.

Travel is another sector hit hard, with several travel companies having closed down this year, including:

Asiara UK Ltd, which offered tailor-made and small-group tours to places like Thailand, China, India, Japan, and Singapore, is one of the latest travel companies to cease trading.

The travel company dissolved on January 13 before it ceased trading as an ATOL holder on January 21.

It follows a tough year for travel companies in 2025, with several closing down, according to the ATOL website.

These included Ickenham Travel Group Ltd (November), Great Little Escapes LLP (June), and Jetline Travel Ltd (March).
