Rely on the Experts for Quality Scaffolding in London

Finding the right scaffolding company within the construction industry to undertake contract scaffolding can be time-consuming. Here are a few pointers on what you could focus on. If you’re looking for a London based scaffolding company for your next project, you’ve come to the right place.

Different Types of Scaffolding

When comparing scaffolding companies, it’s important to look at the type of scaffolding they specialise in. Although many fundamentals may be transferable, each project requires a bespoke approach on an individual basis. For example, a scaffolding company specialising in domestic scaffolding would not be ideal for a commercial scaffolding project in London and the south-east. Here at Inner City Scaffolding, our contract scaffolding services range from commercial scaffolding, rail scaffolding and demolition scaffolding, to scaffolding design and concept services. It is hugely beneficial to look at the scaffolding companies’ previous portfolio of work.

Project Requirements and Budget

Before you begin your search for a London based scaffolding company, it is important to understand the scope and needs of your project. Using your scope as a starting point enables you to be clear with the scaffolding company on any restrictions or complications that may present themselves, creating the opportunity to value engineer solutions and manage budgets. This enables us to work within your set parameters, whilst ensuring the safe delivery of your project.

Timelines are extremely important when searching for a London based scaffolding company. This enables us to gain a realistic understanding of design lead-in, materials needed, workforce, logistics and key deadlines, ensuring the scheme deliverables are tailored to suit your project.

Accreditations and Membership

Some projects require specific accreditations from contractors for compliance reasons. These accreditations allow you, as the client, to remain assured that reputable scaffolding companies are actively working within all health and safety parameters, meeting your quality and compliance KPI’s.
