  • Explain the work and the areas that require access.
  • Allow for the property layout and any access limitations.
  • Confirm who is responsible for scaffold erection, inspection and alterations.
  • Make sure the agreed arrangement is suitable for the planned work and safety requirements.

Common questions

Scaffolding FAQs

What projects may need scaffolding?

Roof repairs, exterior decorating, rendering, roofline maintenance and other work at height may require scaffolding, depending on the building and task.

Can you advise on access for my property?

Contact us with details of the work and property so the requirements and next steps can be discussed.

How far in advance should I enquire?

Enquire as early as practical, particularly if scaffolding needs to be coordinated with other trades. Timing depends on the job and availability.

Is every property suitable for the same scaffold setup?

No. Building height, ground conditions, access, obstacles and the type of work affect what arrangement may be appropriate.

Who is responsible for scaffold safety checks?

Responsibilities should be agreed before work starts. Scaffolding must be erected, inspected and used in accordance with applicable safety requirements by competent people.
