What scaffolds do we erect?

We offer all our Surrey customers a complete range of scaffold structures to suit your needs and this can range from a simple scaffolding Cobham tower for decoration works to a standard 2 story property or more complex 6 board wide scaffolds with roof edge protection handrails and loading bays for large industrial units.

Below are two other types of scaffolds that are popular within Cobham and surrounding areas of Surrey that we have a lot of experience in erecting for clients:

Cantilever scaffolds

If you have a weak or unstable surface where a conventional scaffolding Cobham structure would not be suitable, then you may require a cantilever scaffold erecting. This type of scaffolding is a great solution for surfaces like a glass roof, a sloping roof and stairs so if you find yourself with these types of obstacles in the way get in touch with us and ask our estimators if this would be suitable for your job.

Conservatory Scaffolds

Do you need to access windows, guttering, or roof areas that are above a conservatory?

Well this type of services would be suited to you. Our scaffolders will safely erect a scaffold around your sun lounge and build a working platform over the top without touching or weight bearing on any part of it.

Scaffold FAQ's:

How much notice do i need to give you to book in my scaffold?

If you have specific dates in which your scaffolds need to be erected then please do try and give us as much notice as possible, however we are always well equipped with scaffolders and equipment ready to start a job the very next day or even the same day.

You can have the scaffold for as long as you need as although we offer 4 weeks hire as standard within all our quotations this can be negotiated if required. If you do go over the agreed timescales that is not a problem as we will advise you of our extra weekly scaffolding hire charges within our quotation.

No, both are completely free and no obligation.

We do this all the time as we have steel and alloy beams that we use to bridge and scaffold over conservatories. These beams will take the full weight of the scaffold, ensuring your conservatory is safe at all times.

If you have ever had scaffold erected before or have had the pleasure of working with scaffolders then you will know that they have certain lingo when it comes to talking about scaffolding erecting. Below is a short list of words and their explanations to help you understand ‘Scaff talk’. 

  • Beam work – This is mainly used for conservatory scaffolds or any type of obstacle that requires bridging over.
  • Lift – This is a boarded or non-boarded level, for example a 2-storey house would need 2 or 3 lifts (levels) to reach gutter height to access the roof.
  • Ledger – A tube that sits horizontally and supports the transoms and standards (uprights).
  • Standards – These are the tubes that are upright and take the weight of the scaffold to the floor.
  • Transoms – Is usually a shorter tube situated diagonally that gives support to the boards that are on a lift.
 

Do you have a plastering or painting project on a large building in Cobham, that requires access to a ceiling or where you need continuous access at a high level? Then our birdcage scaffold solutions will most certainly help! Our skilled scaffolders can erect huge scaffolding bays for you to be able to get your project completed quickly and efficiently.

How much does scaffolding cost in Cobham?

Here are some examples of our Cobham scaffolding prices:

  • A scaffold over a conservatory on a standard 2-storey property starts from £300 – £850.
  • One whole side of a 2-storey that is 3 lifts high to gutter level for roof work ranges from £350 – £750.
  • A scaffold tower with 2 lifts on a 2-storey building for repairs to downpipes or windows would begin from £300 – £700 (depending on length).

 

Our prices are only a guide for standard scaffolds with a 4-week hire period, but costs can vary depending on scaffolding length, height and access. Any additional services will be extra.

Although scaffold erecting times can fluctuate, we have provided approximate durations below:

  • 2-4 hours for small 1-2 storey projects.
  • 1-3 days for medium 3-5 storey projects.
  • 1-4 weeks for large 5-storey+ buildings or high-rise projects, depending on complexity.

 

 

For any work exceeding 2 meters in height or where ladder or mobile tower access is unsafe, scaffolding is essential for health and safety. It provides a stable and secure platform for repairs, maintenance, and installations on roofs, chimneys, guttering, windows, brickwork, and more.

Dismantling another company’s scaffolding equipment poses substantial legal and safety hazards and is therefore prohibited. This is why we will never dismantle another firm’s scaffold.

If you believe the scaffolding poses an immediate danger, you should contact local authorities or safety inspectors without delay.

To ensure the scaffolding’s stability and prevent movement, such as overturning or collapsing, scaffolders may need to secure it to your building. This involves drilling into the exterior walls to install ties. This process is carefully executed to minimise any potential damage.

Scaffolding is mandatory for repointing work performed at height, especially when requiring the use of both hands. Ladder use in such situations is unsafe and can also result in substandard workmanship.

To ensure worker safety, scaffolding is mandatory for tasks performed above 4 feet from the ground or 6 feet in construction settings when other options are not suitable. Any construction work where workers face fall risks from an elevated position is considered ‘working at height’ and requires strict safety measures.

While scaffolding can be erected on grass, a stable foundation is crucial to prevent sinking. This typically involves levelling the ground and using wooden sole boards.

It is within your neighbour’s right to deny access. Nevertheless, most scaffolding companies will endeavour to find suitable solutions for constrained areas. Should these efforts prove unsuccessful, it may be necessary to place scaffolding components on the adjacent property, for which prior consent is mandatory.
