Scaffolding is a temporary structure built from steel or aluminium components to support tradespeople, tools and materials whilst work is done on a building or house. You’ll need scaffolding for work at height that can’t be reached by a ladder or that’s easier to do from a more stable platform.

When you’ll need scaffolding
In most instances, scaffolding will be managed or sub-contracted by the tradespeople carrying out the building or remedial work to your property. In a small number of cases where you need to arrange scaffolding yourself, such as where you intend to carry out work on your property, you must use a builder or scaffolding specialist to erect the scaffolding. They will have had training and been deemed competent to do so.
What you need to know as a homeowner
There are extensive working at height regulations and whilst these don’t apply to homeowners (unless you’re working on your own home and the work places others at risk), you may want to ask your tradesperson about the precautions they take to reduce the risk of falls. This doesn’t necessarily mean scaffolding has to be used; harnesses and ladders can also be used.
Very helpful gave great advice.
Fast, professional job was undertaken for a reasonable price. We are very happy with the end result, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Terry's services.
Experienced builder NEW TO RATED PEOPLE ???? Hi everyone. I’m Mitch, I’ve been in the trade since leaving school. I am a general builder that specialises in timber work. I do most jobs from small jobs like laminate flooring all the way upto 2 storey extensions. For the larger jobs I have a reliable team of builders including electricians, plumbers and bricklayers. We are happy to quote anything, bespoke is my passion. If you can’t get someone to build it, we can! Please feel free to browse photos of my work, I will try upload a little bit of everything. If you don’t see a photo of a job your asking for, feel free to contact me and I’m sure I will be able to show you examples of my work in that area. Friendly team of lads aging between 18 and 66! We look forward to working with you. P.s as mention above we are new to rated trades and as such have decades of experience, thousands of builds under our belts but alas, no rating on here. Any and all feedback will be most welcome. Stay safe everyone and see you on the job!

Friendly, professional. Turned up at relatively short notice and gave good advice and fixed the problem really quickly. Helpfully gave a quote I could share with other owners for a common roof repair and did a great job. Would definitely use again. Thanks
Joe and his son did a wonderful job, they came everyday until the job was done and cleared up each day before they left. the quality of the workmanship on our loft conversion is great and we are very satisfied with the price. We would recommend them to anyone looking to do a loft conversion on a tight budget.

Dave & his team worked like Trojan's on this job in terrible weather for almost two weeks solid. However when they had finished the job the transformation of the garden was fantastic. I would highly recommend Dave & his team, infact I have since had him back to do my driveway, another superb job by Coldharbour Fencing & Landscaping.

We have extensive experience of lime plastering, render and traditional materials such as lath and plaster and wattle and daub. We also undertake repointing and wall repairs with flint and clunch. I have an MSc in Building Conservation and can advise on many aspects of the care and renewal of traditional buildings whether listed or not. Issues such as damp and insulation in old properties are a speciality. We can also recommend and liaise with other tradespeople who are qualified to repair historic timber, brick and stone. We have a detailed knowledge of regulations as they apply to Listed Buildings and have long experience of guiding owners through the process of obtaining listed building consent. We can prepare documents such as Heritage Statements and repair specs to support applications to alter or repair period properties.
Dan did such a great job with our 17th century lime wall. Painstakingly removing the modern repair without damaging the surrounding plaster and then re-lathing and finishing with lime plaster. You can hardly see where the repair is even though we didn't skim the whole wall to preserve wall paintings. Very clean and tidy and I wouldn't hesitate to use him again, highly recommended.
general builder but specialist in carpentry and roofing also close to scaffolders plasterers electricians and plumbers so can do the whole package

A quality carpenter and joiner for Warwickshire and Northamptonshire. I have been designing and building with wood for many years. I have vast experience in the design and construction of all things in wood from furniture through to doors and windows.
Made a very good job of copying an existing radiator cabinet and in fact made two for less than what I was quoted for one, by a big specialist company.
Multi-skilled and excellent work. Would use again!

RS Property did a brilliant job on my bathroom; very professional and good communication with Roger throughout the project. I gave them a tight timeline and challenging materials and they worked well to get the job finished earlier than expected. They even took my bath and WC back to B&Q when they saw a small crack in them! Would highly recommend RS Property
