We provide a wide range of scaffolding services across London, from residential access scaffolds and temporary roofs to large commercial and construction projects.
Our access scaffolds provide a safe working platform for London’s various trades, including builders, renderers, bricklayers, decorators, solar installers, window fitters, thatchers, soffit and fascia companies and roofers.
Birdcage or crash deck platforms are a versatile option for any scaffolding London project. They can be used indoors or outdoors, typically providing fall protection or access to ceilings and other elevated areas during construction work that requires a large working platform.
A cantilever scaffold is an independent structure supported on one end. It extends horizontally outwards from a building or scaffold, providing Londoners with a platform to access hard-to-reach or obstructed areas safely.
A chimney scaffold is a structure erected by qualified scaffolding London professionals that allows safe access to all sides of chimneys or flues on a roof for repair, rebuilding, demolition, or repointing work.
Commercial scaffolding is used for large-scale construction and maintenance projects on London's commercial buildings, including offices, shops, schools, restaurants and hospitals.
A conservatory scaffold is a tube and fittings structure erected on either side of a conservatory. It is then bridged using aluminium beams to safely span over the top, allowing access to the properties' upper levels from a fully boarded and hand-railed platform.
Londoners can use our domestic scaffolds for various residential projects, including working platforms for home renovations, repairs, maintenance, painting, soffit and fascias, and chimney and roof access.
Edge protection handrails are often required for construction, industrial, or larger commercial projects. Once erected around the perimeter of a building, the guardrails provide secure fall protection for London's trades and DIYers.
A gantry scaffold is a bridge-type structure that safely spans public areas, such as footpaths, roads, or other obstacles. It allows construction work to proceed uninterrupted while providing safe passage for Londoners.
This type of scaffolding stands freely, not relying on the building structure for support. It is ideal for painting and rendering works where the scaffold tubes cannot touch the walls. Our independent structures offer multiple platforms that are supported by double bracing to ensure stability.
Lift shaft scaffolds are narrow towers that provide multiple platform levels for safe access to lift shafts, enabling repairs, maintenance, servicing, or electrical work. Professional scaffolding London contractors ensure these structures are designed and erected to the highest safety standards.
A loading bay scaffold is a platform designed to facilitate the safe loading and unloading of heavy materials onto a scaffold structure. It is typically used on London's construction sites. Our professional scaffolders can erect loading-bay platforms of any height and width.
A putlog scaffold is a structure tied directly into the brickwork of a building using putlogs or tubes with putlog adapters. Our scaffolders place these into a hole made in the wall's masonry to create the boarded platform. The scaffold boards are then raised each time we add the next platform.
Our scaffolding London operatives will ensure your new-build scaffold, with each working platform erected progressively for access on construction projects such as single-house builds, extensions, timber-frame homes, and large housing developments, is installed safely and efficiently.
Roofing scaffolds are designed to provide a safe platform for London's roofers and DIYers for various tasks, including roof replacement, tile repairs, maintenance, cleaning, and tile hanging. Our fully qualified scaffolders specialise in erecting safe roofing structures for trades and DIYers.
Our scaffolding London services include scaffold towers designed to provide safe access to specific areas of a building for cleaning, repairs, and inspections. Tower widths and platform heights vary by project, with scaffold boards installed at multiple levels as needed.
A shoring scaffold is a framework that stabilises, supports, or props up damaged or compromised structures. It is put in place to prevent collapse, allow repairs to occur, and ensure Londoners' safety.
Our scaffold stairs provide safe and efficient access for Londoners to elevated areas, such as multi-level buildings, industrial facilities, and multiple levels of a scaffolding structure. Our scaffolders can help you with landing and platform heights, as well as the required flights of stairs and treads.
A suspended scaffolding, or hanging scaffold, is a platform suspended over a building or roof from overhead support structures. It is ideal for cleaning windows in offices and tower blocks. Contact our experienced team for a free suspended scaffolding London estimate.
Our scaffolding London service also includes erecting system scaffolds. It utilises pre-engineered, interlocking components for faster, easier assembly and disassembly. Our expert scaffolders can install popular systems, including Haki, Cuplok, and Layher.
A temporary roof, or tin hat structure, provides a roof covering enclosed with monarflex sheeting to protect the building and workers inside from adverse weather so work can continue without delays. A skilled scaffolding London hire company should always erect this complex structure. You can read more about our temporary tin hat hire prices here.
BS5837 tree protection fencing provides a secure perimeter that protects trees and their root systems from construction work in areas subject to tree preservation orders. As part of our scaffolding London specialist services, our tree protection scaffolders will ensure any trees and roots are protected from damage.

The price of scaffold hire varies immensely, and several factors influence a scaffolding’s cost, including size, location, access, and complexity. Scaffolding hire for large-scale projects can be pretty expensive in a city like London. For example, scaffolding an entire 10-story building is considerably more costly than working on a 2-storey shop front.

Scaffolding generally doesn’t require planning permission. However, if the structure is built or extends over public areas in London, a highway/pavement license is necessary. This is obtained from the local council, and your scaffolding company will handle the license application for you because they hold the appropriate insurance.

There is no specific timescale for a scaffold to stay up in London or anywhere in the UK. If a scaffold is regularly inspected by a professional and adheres to all safety regulations, then it can remain in place for extended periods even years as long as it complies with safety standards. This blog post explains in detail how long scaffolds can stay up.

To erect a traditional steel scaffold structure, you need metal tubes in various lengths, a range of steel couplers (including singles, doubles, swivels, joint pins, and base plates), and timber scaffold boards of different lengths to create the working platforms. Our guide explains what scaffold boards are and why scaffolders use them.
Our scaffolders are often asked, can I erect a scaffold myself? No, only qualified scaffolding erectors can. For safety reasons, only experienced scaffolders must erect, modify, and dismantle scaffolding structures. If this is completed incorrectly, it could result in hazardous collapses and fatal injuries.
This means you’ll hire a scaffolding London company to supply, erect and dismantle a steel scaffold for a specific agreed period. A standard rental term for most structures is four weeks, although other companies may differ. Here, we have detailed how to choose the right scaffolding company for you and whether hiring or buying scaffold is best.
