How We Work

From first call to final dismantle

  1. Survey & Design

    We assess the site, agree access requirements and produce full scaffold design and load calculations for anything non-standard.

  2. Permits & Programme

    Where work affects a public footpath or highway, we handle the council permit application and slot erection into your build programme.

  3. Erect & Tag

    CISRS-certified scaffolders erect to TG20:21 standard, with every structure tagged on completion to confirm it's safe to use.

  4. Inspect & Dismantle

    Statutory inspections continue for the duration of the hire, with a clean, prompt dismantle once your project's finished.

Do you handle scaffold design, calculations and permits?

Yes, we provide full scaffold design and calculation for complex or non-standard structures, and where a project needs access over a public footpath or highway, we handle the permit application with the local council on your behalf.

What kind of commercial and industrial projects have you worked on?

Our project list spans leisure centres, office developments, schools, residential blocks and heritage buildings across Berkshire and the Thames Valley, from routine maintenance access to complex multi-phase builds.

Do you carry out ongoing inspections once a scaffold is erected?

Yes, every scaffold we erect is tagged and subject to statutory inspection, with our team carrying out regular site visits to check for damage, weather impact or unauthorised alterations for the duration of the hire.
