How it works
What happens from the first call to the day we take the last tube away.
We ask about the job
Tell us the address and what the scaffold is for. We often price small jobs from photos and a street view, and book a survey for anything larger.
A fixed hire price in writing
You receive a price including VAT and the first weeks of hire, the weekly rate after that, and whether a licence or engineer's design is needed.
Built, checked and signed off
We arrive on the agreed day, build the scaffold and give you a signed handover certificate before anyone works on it.
Inspected and then taken down
We inspect every seven days and after storms, adapt the scaffold if your trades need it, and strike it when you call.
About us
“A scaffold should be the safest part of the job, so we build every one as if our own family were working on it.”
Lee started as a labourer at eighteen, worked through his CISRS Scaffolder and Advanced Scaffolder cards, and spent ten years on commercial sites in London before setting up the company with Vikram Desai in 2009.
He still surveys most jobs himself and signs off every handover certificate. The yard is on the Maylands estate in Hemel Hempstead, so our lorries are rarely more than twenty minutes from a job.

FAQs
Straight answers on price, licences, hire periods and safety. If your question is not here, call the office.
How much does scaffolding cost?
Every scaffold is priced in writing. As a guide, a chimney scaffold on a two-storey house starts from £550 and the front of a two-storey terraced house from £950, both including VAT and the first weeks of hire.
Do I need a licence for scaffolding?
If any part of the scaffold stands on the pavement or road, you need a highway licence from Hertfordshire County Council. We apply for it for you and include the fee in our quote.
How quickly can you put a scaffold up?
Domestic scaffolds are usually booked about ten working days ahead. Chimney scaffolds and storm damage can often be done sooner.
What happens if I need the scaffold for longer?
The weekly rate in your quote applies after the included hire period. Call the office when you are finished and we will take it down.
Do my neighbours need to agree?
Only if the scaffold stands on their land or is tied to their house. We talk to them before we arrive and explain what we will do.
Is the scaffold safe for my roofer or builder to use?
Yes. It is built to TG20:21 or an engineer's design, signed off with a handover certificate, and inspected every seven days.
Will you take the scaffold down in bad weather?
We do not erect or strike scaffolds in high winds. If the weather turns, we rearrange the day and tell you as early as we can.
Do your prices include VAT?
Yes. Every price on this site and in our quotes includes VAT.
