Visa Debit Chargeback

Hi
I paid a deposit of £4500 for some paving and landscaping to a company using my Visa Debit Card. I have the Visa Debit receipt. The company never started any work and didn't give me a start date. I have contacted my bank to ask them to seek a chargeback. I wondered how this might be achieved as the company has gone out of business and is is being liquidated.
Any advice would be gratefully recieved.
Thanks
Richard
