Training:

Stock:
We own a significant amount of high-quality materials, including 150 miles of galvanized scaffold tube, 200,000 fittings, 30,000 scaffold boards, and 10,000 short scaffold boards. All of our boards are BS2424 certified and are banded, branded, and nail-plated. We only use drop-forged doubles and have a large stock of UBIX temporary roof equipment and Haki staircase scaffolding.
Scaffolding:
We understand that the scaffold on your project is likely to be the most prominent aspect of the work being carried out. We strive to provide not only an efficient service with quality materials but also a visually pleasing scaffold with symmetry. A well-built scaffold is not only the best advertisement for us but also for you.
Our ability to quickly adapt to changing on-site requirements has allowed us to maintain repeat business from customers who have been frustrated by other scaffold companies. Once you give us a job, we will always prioritize unexpected calls and can usually be on-site within a few hours. This eliminates the need for you to plan your access requirements days or weeks in advance. Our rates are often comparable to other scaffold companies, but we have the necessary resources available to fulfill what we have priced for, without letting the customer down. Unlike other companies, we do not rely on a larger scaffold company to hire us materials, ensuring that your scaffold on-site will not be removed without notice or recompense. We also do not use subcontract labor or agency scaffolders who lack knowledge of our company or the site they are working on. All of our staff are “cards in” pay-as-you-earn employees, and many have been working for us for several years.
Safety, Health, Environment & Quality (SHEQ):
UK Scaffolding is fully committed to ensuring the health, safety, and welfare of all employees, customers, and others who may be affected by our operations. We aim to establish and maintain the highest standards of health and safety performance in our industry and achieve our health and safety objectives.
