Services
Domestic Scaffolding
Our domestic scaffolding solutions cater to homeowners undertaking renovations, extensions, and repairs. With CISRS-certified professionals, we ensure safe access for roofing, chimney work, and exterior projects while maintaining compliance with BS EN 12811-1 standards. Our team provides tailored installations that accommodate property-specific requirements, including temporary roofs for weather protection. Clients benefit from free consultations and dismantling services that leave sites clean and ready for next steps.
Commercial Scaffolding
We deliver large-scale scaffolding solutions for commercial developments including schools, shopping centres, and industrial units. Our CHAS-accredited team designs structures that meet TG20 and SG4:05 guidance notes, ensuring safety compliance for complex projects. With 20+ years of experience, we coordinate with architects and contractors to maintain project timelines while providing access platforms and edge protection systems that enhance workplace safety during construction phases.
Access Scaffolding
Specialist access scaffolding enables safe working at height for challenging projects. Our system includes suspended scaffolds, birdcage structures, and lifting beams that comply with health and safety regulations. We install handrail systems and edge protection to safeguard workers on tall buildings, with temporary solutions that adapt to project duration. Clients receive risk assessments and method statements to ensure regulatory compliance throughout the scaffolding lifecycle.
Temporary Roofs
Temporary roof installations protect construction sites from adverse weather conditions during prolonged projects. Using lightweight materials and traditional fixing methods, we create durable coverings that maintain site dryness. Our solutions incorporate scaffold boards and corrugated iron for structural integrity, with designs that facilitate easy dismantling. These systems are particularly beneficial for multi-year developments requiring continuous weather protection without compromising access requirements.
Scaffold Design
Our scaffold design service creates custom solutions that align with project specifications and spatial constraints. Certified designers produce plans that optimise material usage while meeting BS EN 12811-1 compliance standards. We provide 3D visualisations and load calculations to ensure structural integrity, with designs that accommodate both temporary access requirements and permanent structure support needs. This service ensures cost-effectiveness through efficient material planning and installation sequencing.
