Below are just some of the more popular scaffolding Woking services we provide to our clients.

Painters access

The safest way to get your painting or decorating job completed would be to have a secure working platform erected, we will put up any size structure to suit your Surrey project, so you can continue your painting works with ease. Included with our painters’ scaffolds is ladder access and every lift you require will be fully boarded with double handrail.

Roof access

Local roofers always need a safe scaffolding platform to complete various roofing tasks which can include gaining access to inspect a damaged roof or to find the source of a potential leak into your property. Our scaffolders are at hand to work alongside you to put up the right types of platforms you need and will dismantle it as soon as you are finished.

Tin hat scaffold

A tin hat scaffold structure is fast becoming one of our more popular options for trades and this is mainly due to the adverse weather conditions we face in Surrey and across the rest of the UK. We can build a full tin hat canopy which is water and wind resistant with full monarflex sheeting so your works can progress in any type of weather whilst fully protecting workers and the building.

*Please note the above are only guides, and many factors affect the price of a scaffold*

Yes, as long as the local council has granted a scaffolding pavement licence, then the base of a scaffold can occupy pavement space, which can be particularly problematic in crowded urban settings where space is already at a premium. We prioritise minimising pavement obstruction by adapting our scaffolding structures whenever feasible. This may involve utilising specialised components or adjusting the layout to ensure pedestrian flow remains as uninterrupted as possible.

While scaffolding can remain in place indefinitely on long-term construction projects, strict adherence to health and safety standards is crucial; this includes mandatory inspections of the equipment both daily, prior to use, at seven-day intervals and after adverse weather.

Placing scaffolding on your neighbour’s land is possible, but you must secure their permission before the commencement of work. Erecting a scaffold on a neighbour’s property without obtaining their agreement is trespassing.

To prevent scaffolding accidents, strict “never do” rules must be followed. Here are some key prohibitions:

Structural integrity

Never overload the scaffold: Exceeding load capacity risks collapse; ensure you always distribute weight evenly.

Never use damaged or defective components: Always inspect all parts before use.

Never alter or modify the scaffold without authorisation: Only qualified scaffolders should make changes.

Never use makeshift supports: Only approved scaffolding components should be used.

Stability and safe access

Never work on an unstable scaffold: Always ensure it is level, plumb, and braced.

Never jump or climb improperly: Ensure you use designated access points and ladders.

Never work in high winds or severe weather: Be familiar with current weather conditions before working on a scaffold.

Never remove guardrails or toe boards unless authorised: On no occasion should you work on scaffolding that does not have complete handrails and toe boards.

Preventing falling hazards

Never leave tools or materials unsecured: Ensure tools are safely placed in buckets or belts to prevent trip hazards.

Never work under a scaffold without proper overhead protection: PPE is vital when on or underneath scaffolds, so always ensure you are wearing a hard hat and harness if required.

Personnel and training

Never work on scaffolding without proper training:  Basic safety measures and common sense should be undertaken by anyone working on a scaffold.

It is illegal for scaffolds to be altered, erected or dismantled by anyone apart from qualified scaffolding erectors.

It is unacceptable for the client/user to authorise any alterations without prior consent from the scaffold contractor, as these changes may compromise the scaffold’s integrity, thus invalidating their insurance. You should always contact your scaffolding company, which will come out and adjust the scaffold for you.

Tips for finding reputable scaffolders in Woking?

Before hiring a scaffolding company, you should take these critical steps:

First: Research their online reviews to gauge their reputation and work quality.

Second: Discuss your project details and ask for examples of their relevant experience.

Third: Most importantly, request and verify their public liability insurance to ensure you’re protected against any incidents during the scaffolding process.

 

Scaffold erectors specialise in erecting and dismantling a range of scaffolds and temporary elevated work platforms. Using hand tools and equipment, the scaffolders precisely connect the tubes, boards and fittings to create safe and robust working platforms around buildings and other structures, enabling the efficient completion of DIY and construction tasks at height.

While roof work without scaffolding is not automatically illegal, it is strictly governed by the Work at Height Regulations 2005. A thorough risk assessment is mandatory, and appropriate safety measures must be implemented for all roofing work. For roofs exceeding two meters, scaffolding is generally required, particularly for commercial projects. However, for minor repairs or low-level roofing projects, alternative safety measures such as harnesses, guardrails, ladders, or mobile elevated work platforms may be considered.

For safety reasons, only qualified and experienced scaffolders are permitted to erect, modify, or dismantle scaffolding structures. Incorrect assembly poses a severe risk of structural failure and potentially fatal accidents.

Only fully qualified scaffolders possessing the appropriate knowledge, training, and experience for the scaffold’s type and complexity should perform inspections.

Scaffolding lifts/platforms are generally erected at a height of 2 metres, so three levels will typically create a scaffold structure around 6 meters high, which is just under 20 feet (19.68ft).
