How much does scaffolding cost?
It depends on the height of the building, how many sides need scaffolding, how long you need it up and how easy it is to get to. Most houses can be priced from a few photos. Call or send us the job and Dean will give you a clear price, with the hire period included.
How quickly can you put it up?
Tell us the date you need it for. Most house and roof scaffolds go up in a day, and we agree the day with you or your roofer before we come.
Do I need a licence if the scaffold is on the pavement?
If any part of the scaffold stands on the pavement or road, Plymouth City Council needs a scaffold licence before it goes up. Dean will tell you at the quote stage if your job needs one.
What if the scaffold has to go on my neighbour’s land?
Some houses can only be scaffolded from next door. We will tell you at the quote stage if that is the case, so you can speak to your neighbour before the day.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry £10 million public liability insurance. Ask and we will send you the certificate.
How long can I keep the scaffold?
The quote includes a hire period agreed with you. If the job runs on, just let us know. When you are finished, call us and we will come and take it down.
Do you work for roofers and builders?
Yes, a lot of our work is for roofers and builders. Give us the start date and we will have the scaffold ready for your team.
