Industrial Scaffolding

Loading, mostly. Industrial access carries heavier materials over longer spans, often with plant, forklifts and deliveries still moving beneath it. The duty class is set from the work actually being done rather than the cheapest frame that fits the elevation.

Yes. Anything that falls outside a TG20 compliant design is engineered and calculated properly, with drawings issued for your records. That covers heavy-duty loading, long spans, unusual geometry and structures carrying plant or materials.

That is designed in. Vehicle routes, racking runs and plant access are worked around, with protection where traffic passes close to standards and exclusion zones agreed before mobilisation.

Yes. Structures left up for months are re-inspected on schedule and repaired promptly rather than left to weather. Long-term hire terms are agreed in the original written price.

Yes, issued before mobilisation and written for the specific structure rather than pulled off a shelf.

If the scaffold stands on or over public land — a pavement, a verge or a road — the local authority requires a licence. We apply for it, deal with the council and build to whatever conditions they attach, such as lighting, hoarding or a protected pedestrian route. If the scaffold sits entirely on private property, no licence is normally needed. We will tell you which applies at the survey.

Most domestic scaffolds go up in a day, and many in a few hours. Larger commercial structures, temporary roofs and anything requiring a bespoke design take longer, and phased jobs are erected in sections to suit the programme. You get a date at the point of quoting, and the crew arrives on it.
