Scaffolders St Ives, Cambridgeshire
We're based right here in the Hemingfords, just outside St Ives. From the market square to riverside properties and everywhere in between, we know the town and the people who live in it.
Local scaffolders who know St Ives
St Ives sits in our back garden. Our base in Hemingford Grey is a five-minute drive from the market square, which means we can be at your property within minutes for a free site visit. We've worked on homes, businesses and listed buildings all across town - from the Victorian terraces along Ramsey Road, to the riverside properties on Waits Lane, the high street shopfronts and the modern developments on the edge of town.
Like most of the older parts of St Ives, properties can be tricky to access, sit on tight streets, or have features that need extra care. We're used to all of it. We know which streets need a scaffold licence from the council, where parking gets awkward, and how to work around the market day traffic.

St Ives scaffolding FAQs
Questions we get asked by locals in St Ives.
Very quickly. We're based right here in Hemingford Grey, just a few minutes from the town centre. Free site visits usually happen within 24 hours of your enquiry, and often sooner.
If your scaffold needs to sit on the public footway or road, then yes - Huntingdonshire District Council issues the licence. If it's all on your own land or driveway, no licence is needed. We'll let you know exactly what's required for your property during the site visit, and we can advise on the application.
Absolutely. For commercial work in the town centre we plan around the market schedule - usually with early morning installs and dismantles to keep disruption to shops and shoppers to a minimum.
Yes. St Ives has some lovely older properties and the conservation area covers a fair chunk of the town centre. We specialise in heritage scaffolding for these - designed around the building, with extra care to protect period features.
We're used to tight access in the older parts of town. If parking suspensions are needed, we'll arrange them with the council. We'll also let you know if there's anything you can do to make the job easier (like moving cars off the drive for a day).
