Loft conversions, side-return extensions and full re-roofs make up the majority of our Ilford work. Every scaffold is designed to suit the build, with dormer-friendly handrails and crash decks where required.
Pavement licences are handled in-house, so any scaffold sitting on the public footpath is fully permitted before erection begins.
