What Information Do Scaffolders Need to Give You a Quote?
The more information you send at the start, the easier it is to provide a clear scaffolding quote.
Some jobs can be priced quickly from photos. Others may need a site visit, especially if access is difficult or the scaffold is more complex.
The basic information we need
Photos help us understand the property, height, access and working area.
Useful photos include:
• The front of the property
• The side access
• The rear of the property
• The roofline
• The chimney if relevant
• Any obstacle such as a conservatory, extension or narrow alley
• Parking or loading areas
Why access matters
Access can make a big difference to the price. A scaffold at the front of a house with clear parking is usually simpler than rear access through a narrow passage or over a conservatory. If access is difficult, mention it early so it can be priced properly.
Why the type of work matters
Different jobs need different scaffold setups. For example:
• Roof repairs may need roof access and edge protection
• Chimney work may need a chimney scaffold
• Rendering may need working platforms across an elevation
• Window replacement may need access to specific floors
• Temporary roof works need extra structure and covering

Electrical Shock
If someone receives an electrical shock, do not touch them while they’re still in contact with the electrical source. Immediately turn off the power at the breaker if you can do so safely. Once the power is off, check the person for breathing and responsiveness. Call emergency services right away and provide first aid only if you are trained.
Burning Smell or Sparks
If you detect a burning smell or see sparks from an outlet or appliance, unplug it only if it’s safe to do so, and contact an emergency electrician right away.
Child & Pet Safety
Keep children and pets away from any area where an electrical issue is occurring. Block off the space, turn off the power if possible, and ensure they cannot touch outlets, cords, or appliances while you assess the situation. Use outlet covers, cord protectors, and teach children never to insert objects into electrical sockets.
Regular Inspections
Schedule periodic electrical inspections to identify worn wiring, overloaded circuits, or aging components before they become dangerous. Have a licensed electrician review your panel, outlets, switches, and high-use appliances. Early detection helps prevent emergencies and ensures your home stays code-compliant and safe.
