Kensington scaffolders
Scaffolding for Kensington’s period buildings
From the villas of Holland Park and the stucco terraces of South Kensington to the mews houses behind them and the mansion blocks of Earls Court, Kensington’s buildings are tall, old and often protected, with much of the area in conservation areas. Scaffolding them means tall elevations, fragile stucco, ironwork and parapets, narrow pavements and neighbours on every side.
Kensington High Street adds shops, offices and hotels, where scaffolds have to keep the pavement open and the building secure. We scaffold homes for redecoration, roof repairs and refurbishment, and commercial buildings for painting, windows and cladding. Kensington is a straight run from our yard along the M4 and the A4, and our London projects include netted scaffolds across several blocks of flats in Kings Cross.

Scaffolding in Kensington: your questions
Straight answers to the things people ask before booking scaffolding. Anything else, just call 0800 2086 905 or 07831 197615.
Ask a questionDo you work in Kensington?
Yes. We take on domestic and commercial work across Kensington, Holland Park, South Kensington and Earls Court, a straight run from our yard along the M4 and the A4.
Who issues scaffold licences in Kensington?
The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, for most of Kensington. West Kensington is in Hammersmith & Fulham, and red routes such as the A4 Cromwell Road are licensed by Transport for London. We will confirm at the survey which applies to your site.
Can you scaffold a mews house?
Yes. Mews houses are often on narrow lanes with no separate pavement, so we plan the scaffold’s footprint, the delivery and access for neighbours at the survey, keeping the scaffold tight to the building.
My building is listed. What should I check?
Check with the Royal Borough’s planning and conservation team before any fixings go into the historic fabric. We can send them our proposed tie positions beforehand, and the final positions are agreed before work starts.
Can you scaffold a hotel or shop that stays open?
Yes. The scaffold can bridge entrances and the pavement on lattice beams, with netting on the lifts above and protected uprights at street level, so guests, customers and pedestrians can pass beneath, as at The George Hotel in Reading.
