Where we help at home
Re-roofing & loft conversions
Full-length working platforms with edge protection, ladder access and sensible loading points so your contractors can work efficiently and safely.
Chimneys, flues & gable ends
Stable access for repointing and repairs, including over-conservatory bridges where ground access is blocked.
Extensions & dormers
Configurable lifts for new openings, steels and roof ties. We coordinate with builders to keep the programme moving.
Painting, soffits & guttering
Clean, continuous platforms for prep and finishing—better results than ladders or towers, with less disruption.
What you can expect
Tidy, respectful installs
Minimal footprint, neat ties and careful handling. We use spreader boards to protect lawns, paths and driveways, and we keep access clear for residents and neighbours.
Protection & public safety
Doorway/floor protection, debris netting and sensible segregation where the public passes. If a scaffold needs to stand on a footway, we’ll advise on permits and manage them where applicable.
Clear documentation
RAMS for every job, scaffold tags at handover, and inspections at agreed intervals (and after alteration or severe weather).
Typical domestic setups
- Front elevation with returns for re-roofing on terraces and semis
- Rear access solutions via side passages or bridging over single-storey extensions
- Chimney stacks with secure working position and edge protection

Domestic scaffolding — your questions answered
How long does it take to put up domestic scaffolding?
Most domestic scaffolds are erected in a few hours to a day, depending on the size and access. We’ll give you a clear timescale with your quote.
Do I need permission for scaffolding on my house?
If the scaffold sits entirely on your own property you usually don’t need a licence. If it stands on a public pavement or road, a highways licence is required — we arrange this for you.
How much does domestic scaffolding cost?
It depends on the height, the number of elevations, how long you need it and access. See our scaffolding costs guide or call for a fast, free quote.
Is your scaffolding insured?
Yes — we carry public liability insurance and our operatives are CISRS-carded and CITB-trained.
