Frequently asked questions

Scaffolds which encroach over the highway (including pavements) require a license under Section 169 of the Highways Act 1980, which are issued by the local Highway Authority. Scaffolds should never be erected or dismantled over people or busy pavements.

The 6 Best Alternatives to Scaffolding

    Rope Access (Abseiling)
    MEWPs (Mobile Elevating Work Platforms)
    Pole Systems.
    Drone Surveys.
    Tower Scaffolds and Podiums.
    Hybrid Access Solutions.

The 3-to-1 rule in scaffolding dictates that the height of a freestanding scaffold must not exceed three times its shortest base dimension. For example, if the narrowest side of the scaffold base is 4 feet wide, the maximum safe platform height is 12 feet.

The Mechanics of the Rule

    The Ratio: For every 3 feet (or 1 meter) of vertical height, the scaffold base must be at least 1 foot (or 0.3 meters) wide.
    Measuring Height: This is measured from the ground or supporting surface to the highest working platform.
    Measuring the Base: This is the shortest distance between the legs or outriggers on the narrowest side of the structure. 

Why It Matters
This guideline prevents freestanding scaffolding from becoming top-heavy and tipping over. The wider the base, the lower the center of gravity, making the structure far more stable. 
How to Exceed the Limit
If your project requires a scaffold to go higher than the 3-to-1 ratio allows, you cannot simply build it higher. To ensure structural integrity, you must stabilize the structure using one of the following methods: 

    Ties: Securing the scaffold to a permanent, stable building or wall at regular intervals.
    Outriggers / Buttress Bays: Expanding the footprint of the base to make the allowable height limit taller.
    Guy Wires: Using heavy-duty tensioned cables to anchor the scaffold to the ground. 

Always refer to specific manufacturer guidelines or local safety regulations (like your regional OSHA standards), as outdoor environments and wind loading can require even stricter height-to-base ratios.

Cost provided item Unit Average UK cost

Single scaffolding (up to 10m) Per week £625

High level chimney scaffolding Per week £660

Prices can vary, this is a fair guide at the presnt time

There are several types of commercial scaffolding systems, including traditional tube and fitting scaffolding, system scaffolding (like Cuplock or Kwikstage), mobile towers, and suspended scaffolding. The right system depends on your project requirements, building design, and access needs. A professional scaffolding provider will assess your site and recommend the most efficient and cost-effective solution.

While the law doesn't say “you must take a PASMA course,” it does require that anyone working at height be competent. In reality, the only widely recognised way to demonstrate competence in tower scaffolding is through formal training, such as a PASMA-accredited course.

Unless you are a qualified scaffolder, you should not attempt this. The Work at Height Regulations 2005 make it clear that anyone working at height must be competent and trained. Incorrectly erected scaffolding could result in injury, legal consequences, or invalidate your insurance.

Installation time varies depending on the scale and complexity of the project. Smaller commercial scaffolding setups may take 1–3 days, while larger or more complex structures (such as multi-storey buildings or restricted-access sites) can take a week or more. Professional scaffolding companies will plan the erection schedule carefully to minimise disruption and keep your project on track.

Hiring a scaffolding tower typically costs between £40 to £80 per day or £100 to £200 per week, depending on the height and platform width. Delivery and collection fees usually add an extra £20 to £80, and longer-term hires can drop the weekly average.

Yes—when installed by a qualified scaffolding company, commercial scaffolding must meet strict UK safety standards, including compliance with Work at Height Regulations. Reputable contractors carry out regular inspections, use certified materials, and ensure all structures are secure, stable, and safe for workers. Hiring a fully insured and accredited company is essential for compliance and peace of mind.

Scaffolding rental eliminates the need for upfront costs, making it a more affordable option for small construction companies. However, rental fees can add up over time, making purchasing your own scaffolding and equipment a better option for long-term projects.
