Virginia Water scaffolders

Scaffolding for large, individual homes

Virginia Water is best known for its large houses, many of them on private roads such as the Wentworth Estate, set in big gardens among mature trees beside Windsor Great Park. Scaffolding homes like these is rarely standard: tall elevations, complex roofs with dormers and chimneys, and driveways, planting and finished landscaping to work around.

We plan each scaffold around the house at the survey, with platforms at every chimney that needs work, temporary roofs where the roof has to come off, and the delivery planned around any estate access rules. Virginia Water is at the end of the A329, which runs from Reading through Wokingham, Bracknell and Ascot, so it is well within reach of our yard.

  • Large homes

    Tall elevations, dormers and chimney stacks.

  • Temporary roofs

    The house stays dry while the roof is replaced or extended.

  • Around gardens

    Scaffolds planned around planting, drives and landscaping.

  • Along the A329

    One road from Reading, via Wokingham, Bracknell and Ascot.

FAQs

Scaffolding in Virginia Water: 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 work on the Wentworth Estate?

Yes, we cover Virginia Water, including the Wentworth Estate. Private estates often have their own rules on access and delivery times, so tell us about them when you enquire and we will plan around them.

Do I need a scaffold licence on a private road?

A highway licence is only needed when the scaffold stands on a public pavement or road, which Surrey County Council licenses in Virginia Water. Private estate roads are not public highway, but the estate may have its own rules, so check with the estate office too.

Can you scaffold a house with a complicated roof?

Yes. We set the scaffold out around the roofline, with platforms at the eaves, dormers and every chimney stack, and adapt it as the roofers and builders move through. For very large or unusual houses we can supply a designed scaffold with drawings.

Can you put up a temporary roof over a large house?

Yes. A temporary roof is designed around the size and shape of the building, with sheeted roofing on beams spanning the scaffold, so the house stays dry while the roof is off. Tell us the roof size and how long the work will take and we will price it.

Will the scaffold damage my garden or drive?

We plan where the scaffold stands at the survey and spread its load with base plates and sole boards on paving, lawn or gravel. Tell us about anything delicate, such as new paving, planting or lighting, and we will work around it.
