Our team was appointed to erect scaffolding for roof repairs on a council-owned building in Didsbury. With part of the scaffold positioned adjacent to a public highway, the project required additional planning, permits and safety measures to meet local authority requirements while providing a secure working platform for roofing contractors.

Project Overview
The project involved erecting a safe and compliant scaffold to provide full access for roof repair works on a council building. As one elevation bordered the public highway, a scaffold permit was required and the installation had to comply with strict regulations to protect pedestrians, wheelchair users and passing traffic.

Our Approach
Following a detailed site assessment, our team erected the scaffold over two days while adhering to all highway permit requirements. The completed scaffold provided safe access for roofing contractors while maintaining public access around the building.
A detailed site survey ensured the scaffold complied with highway regulations while maintaining safe distances from the carriageway and clear pedestrian access.
The scaffold was erected to current safety standards with appropriate spacing for pedestrians, wheelchair users and public access throughout the project.
The scaffold can be adapted as roof repairs progress, allowing contractors to work safely and efficiently at every stage.
Our team completed the installation efficiently, minimised disruption to the public and left the site clean, safe and ready for roofing works.
Client Feedback
Scaffold was exactly as required and great communication throughout.
