Commercial scaffolding contracts in Ipswich

Ipswich is the furthest town we list, a long way from our yard in Berkshire, so the work we take on here is generally larger commercial contracts, planned well in advance, where the size of the job justifies the distance. If that sounds like your project, we would be glad to hear about it.

The Waterfront around the old wet dock has been transformed with tall blocks of flats, offices and the University of Suffolk, and the town has older blocks and commercial buildings that need refurbishment, new windows and cladding. Our projects include a full-height tower block scaffold in Slough for new windows and cladding, and netted scaffolds across several blocks of flats in Kings Cross.

FAQs

Scaffolding in Ipswich: your questions

Straight answers to the things people ask before booking scaffolding. Anything else, just call 0800 2086 905 or 07831 197615.

Ask a question

Do you take on work in Ipswich?

Yes, usually larger commercial contracts planned well in advance, because Ipswich is a long way from our yard in Berkshire. Send us the details and we will tell you straight away whether we can take it on.

Who issues scaffold licences in Ipswich?

Suffolk County Council, as the highway authority, for any scaffold on a pavement or road in the town. We check whether your site needs one at the survey.

Can you scaffold tall blocks of flats and offices?

Yes. Our projects include a tower block in Slough scaffolded from ground to roof, with a working lift at every floor, netting throughout and a construction hoist alongside. Tall scaffolds are designed before they go up, and we supply the design and method statement.

What accreditations do you hold?

The company holds CHAS, Constructionline Gold, SSIP and CITB accreditations, our scaffolders are CISRS qualified, and we are fully insured up to £10 million. We work to TG20:21 guidance and can supply compliance sheets and designs.

How far ahead should I get in touch?

As early as possible, ideally while your programme is still being set. That gives us time to plan a job this far from our yard properly.
