Lyon Home / House scaffolding
House scaffolding for painting, rendering and windows
From a two-up two-down terrace to a five-storey townhouse, we scaffold the front, the back or the whole house. Plymouth has a lot of tall Victorian terraces on slopes and tight streets, and that is most of what we do.
In short: House scaffolding is scaffold built up the front, back or all round a house so painters, renderers, window fitters and builders can reach every part of the walls. Lyon Scaffolding scaffolds houses across Plymouth, from small terraces to five-storey townhouses.

House scaffolding: common questions
Do you scaffold tall Victorian terraces?
Yes, they are most of what we do in Plymouth, including five-storey townhouses on steep, tight streets.
Can you scaffold just the front or the back?
Yes. We scaffold one side, two sides or the whole house, depending on the work.
What do painters and renderers need from a scaffold?
Lifts at the right heights to reach every part of the wall, kept clear of the walls enough to work, and sometimes sheeting to keep the weather off fresh render. Tell us the job and we build to suit.
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.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry £10 million public liability insurance. Ask and we will send you the certificate.
