White Knight Maintenance has achieved record turnover growth, increasing from £1.8 million to £3 million. The North Shields-based company attributes this success to the expansion of its fire protection division, which secured substantial contracts in Northumberland's care homes.

Additional revenue was generated through significant projects, including the refurbishment of The Salvation Army's facility in South Shields. The company's founder, Lee Bishop, noted a strong forward order book and strategic investments as key factors in maintaining momentum. He anticipates continued success into 2026, driven by rising demand for maintenance, compliance, and energy-efficient buildings amid ongoing regulatory changes.
