Scaffolding in Guildford For Hire and Sale

You don’t just hire the scaffold from us, you also hire our expertise, experience and dedication. We can erect all types of access scaffolds including conservatory scaffolds and gantry’s. One of our recent jobs involved erecting a gantry scaffold on the A3 in Guildford across a busy motorway to access concrete repairs on the side elevation of a flyover. We used scaffold towers to act as support towers at either end, tied together with steel unit beams spanning 20m with a boarded and handrailed platform for works.

We also do lots of domestic jobs involving chimney scaffolds and roof scaffolds and have worked on small house extensions to large new house developments. Our popular temporary roof service is also in demand, such as at a job on Cedar Way providing scaffold temporary roofing to be built over an occupied property enabling a faulty roof cover to be removed and re-installed. The scaffold structure was erected to gutter level and then continued up for the roof to be installed.

All working platforms are boarded and have edge protection and handrails for safety. For any public job such as on highways, shop fronts & pedestrian walkways we also use scaffold debris netting to prevent debris fall. We can also provide tree protection for exposed roots or simply to protect trees from building works & construction sites as required with many planning applications.

Some of our wide stock is also for sale, from tubes to scaffold boards of any size.

Scaffold Design in Guildford

Our scaffolders in Guildford also offer a scaffold design service for specialist jobs that require highly skilled scaffolding erectors to erect structures for buildings, roofing or any remedial works that fall outside the parameters set out in TG20:08 – basically the rules and regulations that cover scaffold such as progressive scaffolding or full height platforms. Load bearing scaffolds need drawings made and scaffold temporary roofs need designing due to the structure being freestanding above building level, meaning wind loadings need to be taken into account when building this type of scaffold. Plan bracing and ledger bracing is installed to make the scaffold more rigid and wind resistant. Dead shore, raking shores and flying shores all are designed to take an imposed load and need scaffolding plans and calculations to ensure they are built correctly. Even standard loading bays for stacking materials used on sites need full designs carried out.

Access scaffolding was built to the girth of a block of residential flats to install new soffits, fascias and guttering. Four lifts of scaffold was provided with the two top lifts boarded and handrailed and including an external ladder access tower.

A highway scaffold was installed to a shop front canopy for renewing the flat roof area. Three levels were erected to the full height of the building with boarded lifts to suit the works. Debris netting was installed as part of the highway specification.

Guildford Scaffolding Information Spot

Guildford has many notable buildings including the Guildhall, Guildford Castle, the Hospital of the Holy Trinity and the Royal Grammar School to name but a few. The scaffolding used to build such impressive structures would have been basic but not much different from scaffolding we use today. There is just one notable difference in that for modern buildings such as new housing, the scaffolding used would be progressive scaffolding, which as the name suggests differs from other scaffolds as it is constructed over a number of weeks along with the building. This is less intrusive and easier to work with and believe it or not, progressive scaffolding is much more pleasing to the eye than the basic scaffolding that would have been used to construct many of Guildford’s landmarks!
