Services
Domestic Scaffolding
We provide tailored scaffolding solutions for homeowners undertaking renovations, extensions, or maintenance. Our systems ensure safe, efficient access for projects ranging from roof repairs to multi-storey builds. With lightweight yet durable materials, we minimise disruption to properties while meeting strict safety standards.
Commercial Scaffolding
Our commercial scaffolding services cater to large-scale projects including hospitals, factories, and infrastructure developments. Using advanced systems like Layer and Cuplock, we create custom access solutions for complex structures. This includes support scaffolds for bridges and temporary roofs for construction sites across Kent and London.
Timber Frame Scaffold
Specialising in timber frame projects, we use Adjustable Transoms and Ready Lock systems for faster assembly. This method reduces programme delays compared to traditional tube scaffolding, particularly for housing developments and modular builds requiring adaptable access solutions.
Events & Hire
We supply and install temporary structures for events, including stages, pedestrian barriers, and zip-up alloy towers. Our hire fleet supports concerts, exhibitions, and charity functions across the South East, with delivery or collection options available.
Temporary Roofing
As pioneers of the Layer temporary roof system in Kent, we create weatherproof access solutions for construction sites. These systems enable uninterrupted work on roofs and upper structures, with spans up to 24m using Ubix technology for enhanced stability.
