Basingstoke scaffolders

Scaffolding for homes, blocks and offices

Basingstoke grew quickly from the 1960s, and much of the town was built within a few decades: office blocks in the centre, estates such as Brighton Hill, Popley, Oakridge and South Ham, and newer neighbourhoods at Beggarwood, Hatch Warren and Chineham. Buildings of that age come up for new windows, recladding and re-roofing, and projects like that need scaffolding on a large scale.

For one multi-storey block in the town, we scaffolded the full length of the street elevation up to the roofline and round the corner, with a working lift at every floor for the cladding and window fitters and debris netting over the whole scaffold. It stood behind the boundary wall, leaving the pavement outside clear. Basingstoke is a straight run south from our yard, down the A33 from Reading, and we cover the whole town and the villages around it.

Ask a question

Have you worked in Basingstoke before?

Yes. Our Basingstoke projects include a multi-storey block scaffolded along its full length for recladding and new windows, with a working lift at every floor and debris netting throughout. We cover the whole town and the villages around it.

Who issues scaffold licences in Basingstoke?

Hampshire County Council, as the highway authority, for any scaffold that stands on a pavement or road. A scaffold kept within the site boundary, as ours was on the Basingstoke block, leaves the pavement clear. We will check at the survey whether your site needs a licence.

Can you scaffold a whole block for recladding or new windows?

Yes. For recladding and window replacement, every floor of the elevation needs safe access at once, so we scaffold the full length and height with a working lift at each floor, and enclose it in debris netting to contain dust and offcuts. We can supply the design, risk assessment and method statement for your principal contractor.

Do you provide scaffolding for new builds in Basingstoke?

Yes. Our new-build scaffolds are adapted lift by lift as the building goes up, for housebuilders and main contractors, and our clients include Bovis Homes, Redrow Homes and Lang Homes.

How far are you from Basingstoke?

Our yard is in Tidmarsh, west of Reading, and Basingstoke is a straight run south down the A33, so surveys, deliveries and inspections are easy to arrange.

Do you scaffold houses too?

Yes. Alongside commercial work, we scaffold homes across Basingstoke for re-roofing, chimney repairs, extensions, loft conversions and redecoration, and can add a temporary roof when the roof has to come off.
