Eastleigh is ten minutes up the road and the terraced streets there mean access and neighbour agreements matter more than the scaffold design. TG20 compliant scaffolds erected, inspected and struck across Eastleigh and the SO50 postcodes around it, from a single access tower to a full commercial elevation.
Eastleigh is largely terraced and interwar housing built around the railway, where rear elevations are reached through a side return or a neighbour's garden and the agreement to do that is worth getting early. In practice most of what we are called out for around Eastleigh is railway terrace re-roofs, with everything else on the list available alongside it.
Extensions, re-roofs, render, fascias, chimney repairs and everything else that needs safe access around a home.
Units, offices, schools, shopfronts and blocks, programmed around the trades that have to follow us on.
Solar work lives or dies on access.
New build access is a sequence, not a single visit.
Chimney rebuilds, repointing, flashings, ridge and verge repairs, aerial and flue work: all of them need a proper platform at the top rather than somebody on a ladder.
Once the tiles come off, the weather decides how the job goes unless you cover it.
Not everything needs a full elevation of scaffold.
Every scaffold we erect is handed over with a certificate that says what it is, what it is designed to carry and who put it up.
Across Eastleigh (SO50) it is mostly railway terrace re-roofs, rear extension scaffolds and solar panel access on 1930s semis. Eastleigh is largely terraced and interwar housing built around the railway, where rear elevations are reached through a side return or a neighbour's garden and the agreement to do that is worth getting early. Every job starts with a look at the property or a set of clear photos, because a scaffold price given blind is a guess.
No. Travel is included in the price. Eastleigh is about 8 km from our Southampton base, well inside the patch we cover day to day, so you are paying for the scaffold and the labour rather than for the van.
Yes. Eastleigh is ten minutes up the road and the terraced streets there mean access and neighbour agreements matter more than the scaffold design. We are happy to talk through the kind of jobs we have done near Swan Centre when you call, and to explain how we would approach yours.
It is the main thing we look at. Terraced property in Eastleigh usually means no vehicle access to the rear, so tube, fittings and boards are carried through a side return or an alley, and the rear scaffold takes longer to erect than the front for that reason alone. It also means the neighbours need to know what is happening and, where the scaffold oversails a boundary, to have agreed to it. None of that is a problem when it is sorted in advance, and all of it is a problem on the morning.
Every enquiry gets a response and a date in the diary within 7 days. Most domestic jobs in Eastleigh go up within a fortnight of the quote being accepted, and short work like a chimney tower or a solar access lift can often be fitted in sooner. If you have a fixed date with a roofer or a solar installer, give it to us and we will work back from it.
If any part of the scaffold stands on the pavement or the road, yes. That is a highway licence, applied for from the local authority covering Eastleigh, and it has a lead time. We deal with the application and build the cost into the quote. Scaffold sitting entirely within your own boundary does not need one.
Regularly. A solar install in Eastleigh normally needs a boarded working lift at gutter height with edge protection along the roofline, up before the panels arrive and struck once the array is signed off. If you are an installer working around Eastleigh, or a homeowner who has been asked to arrange access, we can work to the install date.
A handover certificate when it is finished, stating the configuration and what it is rated to carry, and inspection records at the intervals the regulations require while it is standing. Your roofer, your insurer and, on a commercial job, the principal contractor will all want to see it.
Call, WhatsApp or send the form and we will come back to you with a straight answer.
Send photos of the property and we can price most jobs from them.
