GSL operated a fleet of 40 vehicles with a huge stock of wholly owned scaffolding equipment that concentrated it’s business in social housing, private new-builds, commercial and industrial sectors. The company had a large number of clients that included Bullock Ltd., Lovell, The Gleeson Group Ltd. and Villa Homes.

A shareholder disagreement at the company is understood to have meant the business could not pays its debts which lead to the collapse.
