Reported terms and dispute process
- Standard payment terms
Brooks Bros (UK) Ltd doesn’t impose standard terms onto suppliers instead choosing to negotiate payment terms with each supplier separately. This results in a variety of payment terms from as little as 7 days from invoice date up to 90 days from invoice date. The two most common, representing nearly 60% of all suppliers, are Net Monthly Account i.e. payment is due on the last day of the month following the month of invoice and 30 days from date of invoice. The latter terms are the most common and are reported here as the company’s standard terms.
- Dispute resolution process
If there is a dispute about payment, the supplier should contact the Accounts Payable team based at Blackwater Place, The Causeway, Maldon, Essex CM9 4GG in the first instance. Telephone: 01621 877400, email: accounts@brookstimber.co.uk
In many cases payment disputes are caused by basic errors such as sending invoices to the site that placed the purchase order rather than to the Accounts Payable team, not quoting purchase order numbers on invoices and failing to issue monthly statements which allow missing invoices to be identified.
If there is a question around the price, quality or quantity of supplies made to Brooks Bros (UK) Ltd, it is likely that the supplier will have been contacted by the team that placed the original purchase order shortly after receipt of the goods or services. Resolution of these types of issues often depends on the speed that the supplier works at.
Once the dispute is resolved, payment will be made on the next payment run.

This is a company-submitted statutory disclosure, not a credit rating. BritDB preserves the reporting period and links the report only through the Companies House number supplied by the official service. Percentages describe payments made during that period and may change in later reports.

PSC records are company-filed public-register information. When the exact same displayed individual name occurs at multiple companies, BritDB offers a non-indexed cross-reference page. It is a name match only, not proof that the records describe the same person. Service addresses and partial dates of birth are deliberately omitted.
08 Charity register
Charity Commission links
No exact company-number link in this snapshot
The Charity Commission extract did not explicitly associate this Companies House number with a charity. BritDB does not use a name-only match to fill the gap.
This company-level check covers the Charity Commission for England and Wales. Links are accepted only when the official extract supplies this exact company registration number. Scottish charities now have separate OSCR profiles, but OSCR’s bulk fields do not provide a Companies House number, so BritDB does not infer a company link.
09 Northern Ireland charity register
CCNI exact company links
No unambiguous company-number link found
The CCNI source number did not resolve uniquely to this Companies House record. BritDB did not use a name or address match.
CCNI publishes company numbers without a jurisdiction prefix. BritDB links only when the plausible padded UK and NI candidates resolve to exactly one Companies House company.
10 Sanctions screening
UK Sanctions List
No exact business-registration-number link found
The imported UK Sanctions List did not supply this Companies House number as a UK-linked business identifier. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
No exact link is not sanctions clearance. UK restrictions can apply through ownership or control even where an entity is not separately named. Always use the current official list and obtain appropriate advice for a legally significant decision.
11 Public procurement
Find a Tender links
No exact GB-COH link in this snapshot
Find a Tender did not explicitly identify this Companies House number in a procurement party. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
These links use only the GB-COH identifier supplied in the procurement record. A company may have other public-sector work that is absent, older, below publication thresholds or published without a Companies House identifier.
12 Environmental register
Environment Agency waste registrations
No exact company-number registration linked
The licensed Environment Agency subset did not contain this exact Companies House number. BritDB did not attempt a name-only match.
This is a privacy-reduced, exact-company subset. The full official register also includes sole traders and applicants without a matching Companies House number. Check the current Environment Agency register before relying on registration status.
13 Nature of business
Standard Industrial Classification
Agents involved in the sale of timber and building materials
