From our Iver yard Guildford Borough Council Licensing authority 4.8 from 29 reviews Google rating Serving Guildford ## Scaffolding hire and erection in Guildford Guildford is one of the busiest Surrey towns we work in. The mix of steep town-centre streets, period cottages, large detached homes on the outskirts and a steady flow of commercial and university work means no two scaffolds look the same, and very few can be priced properly without seeing the building first. Around the High Street and the older parts of town, properties are often listed or sit in a conservation area, with tight frontages and awkward rear access. Further out, in Merrow, Burpham, Onslow Village and the villages towards the Downs, the work is more often full re-roofs, loft conversions, rear extensions and re-renders on larger family homes. Whatever the job, the process is the same. We come out and look at the property, you get a free written price, and when a date is agreed the scaffold goes up on that date — inspected, tagged and handed over properly. Local knowledge ## The property and sites we scaffold in Guildford Knowing the building stock is half the job. This is what we are usually working on in and around Guildford. ### Town centre and conservation areas Steep streets, narrow pavements and older buildings mean careful tie positions, protected finishes and planned lorry drops. We check access and pavement space at the site visit, not on the morning of the erect. ### Larger detached homes Merrow, Burpham and the surrounding villages have a lot of larger detached properties where a full wrap, a temporary roof or a phased scaffold for an extension is the norm. ### Commercial and education sites Retail units, offices, schools and campus buildings need inductions, RAMS and controlled working hours. We work to those requirements as standard. ## What we are called out for most in Guildford ### Re-roofs and temporary roofs Edge protection, boarded working lifts and, where the property cannot be left open, a designed temporary roof so the work continues in any weather. ### Extensions and loft conversions Scaffolds that follow the build and are adapted as it rises, so the bricklayers and roofers are never waiting on access. ### Chimney and leadwork repairs Chimney scaffolds and tin hat covers for rebuilding, repointing and flashing work on period stacks. Local conditions ## What catches people out in Guildford Ground, access, building age and the local licensing regime all change how a scaffold has to be built and booked. ### Scaffold licences in Guildford Scaffolding on the public footway in Guildford needs a licence from Surrey County Council as highway authority. We tell you at the site visit if one is needed and allow for it in the start date. ### Listed buildings Where a building is listed, we agree tie and fixing methods that avoid damage to historic fabric before the scaffold goes up.
