Debt Recovery Services
Commercial Shopfitting Debt Recovery Specialists
Shopfitters and commercial interior contractors take on complex, tight-deadline projects with significant upfront material and labour costs. Retail clients, franchise operators and property developers often delay payment, using project defect claims or specification disputes to justify withholding large final invoices.
Hay's Collections recovers debts for shopfitting businesses across the UK — from individual fitout contractors to large commercial interior companies. We pursue unpaid fit-out invoices, FF&E supply debts and project management fees effectively.
Our No Collection, No Commission model means you risk nothing. 15% commission on successful recovery only.
In addition to our core No Collection, No Commission debt recovery service, we provide a comprehensive range of ancillary services — including debtor tracing, credit checks, legal escalation, statutory demands and enforcement support — ensuring your case receives the full specialist attention it deserves.
