What we cover

Jobs we help homeowners with

Most home projects above ground-floor level need a proper scaffold. Here are the jobs we get called out to most often.

Roof repairs and replacements

Safe access for roofers fitting new tiles, fixing leaks or replacing the whole roof. We build to suit your roofline so the team above can work safely.

Solar panel installation

Solar installers need clean, secure access to your roof. We provide the right scaffold so the panels can go in safely and on schedule.

Chimney work

Repointing, rebuilds, capping and lead flashing - all need a proper chimney scaffold. We design ours to give your bricklayer or roofer full reach.

Rendering and painting

Need your render redone or your house painted? We provide a full elevation scaffold so the team can work the whole face of the building cleanly.

Extensions and loft conversions

Adding a new bedroom or extending the back of the house? We support the build phase with safe access from first lift to final clearance.

Gutter and fascia work

Replacing guttering, fascias or soffits? A scaffold makes the job faster, safer and tidier than working off ladders all day.

Common questions

Domestic scaffolding, answered simply

If you've got a question we haven't covered here, give us a call. We're happy to talk it through.

Every house is different. The price depends on how tall and wide the scaffold needs to be, where it sits, and how long you need it for. The good news is our quotes are always free and there's no obligation.

And if you find a cheaper written quote from a competitor, just send it over and we'll do our best to match it.

For as long as you need it. Most home projects take between a few days and a few weeks, but we can leave a scaffold up for longer jobs too. We'll agree the timeline with you upfront so there are no surprises.

We take real care to protect your property. Scaffold feet sit on protective boards to spread the weight, and we work around your planting where we can. If anything's at risk, we'll talk it through with you before we start.

Only if any part of the scaffold sits on the public pavement or road. If it's all on your own land or driveway, no licence is needed. If the council does need to be involved, we'll let you know during the site visit and explain what's needed.

Most home scaffolds go up in a few hours to a day. Once we've agreed the quote we'll book you in for the soonest slot that works. For urgent jobs, call us on 01480 582 824 and we'll do our best to help.

Yes. We hold full public liability and employer's liability insurance, and our scaffolders are CISRS and CSCS certified. Your home and your tradespeople are properly covered.
