York-based conservation specialist William Anelay fell into administration owing at least £12.6m to unsecured creditors.
More than 132 staff at William Anelay, which had traded since 1747, lost their jobs in September after efforts to rescue the business by securing a deal with creditors failed.
It has also emerged that rival restoration specialist Szerelmey had considered saving the £38m turnover business but stepped back from a deal at the 11th hour.
It the end Szerelmey bought the assets and work in progress of four associated companies from administrator Begbies Traynor for a minimum of £400,000.
The final payment will depend on collecting work in progress and retentions and determine any distribution to creditors.
The assets now form part of newly-named business Heritage Building & Conservation controlled by Szerelmey.
Of the sum, £11.8m was owed to trade creditors and almost £300,000 to HM Revenue & Customs.
