Scaffold with a rubbish chute on a house under renovation

Storm damage to roofs and chimneys

High winds can lift tiles, loosen ridges and chimney pots and leave a roof open to the rain. We put up a scaffold so your roofer can reach the damage safely, with sheeting or a temporary roof where the weather needs keeping out.

  • Access to loose tiles, ridges and chimney pots
  • Sheeting or a temporary roof over an open roof
  • A safe platform for your roofer at every level
  • Left up until the repair is finished

Fire damage and failing walls

A fire can leave roofs and walls unsafe. So can render, brickwork or gutters that start to come away. Either way the building needs safe access before anyone can work on it. We plan the scaffold around the damage so the repair can start as soon as possible.

  • Access around fire damaged roofs and walls
  • Render, brickwork and gutters coming away
  • Sheeting to keep the weather out
  • Planned with your builder or insurer's contractor

Questions

Emergency scaffolding: common questions

How quickly can you put up an emergency scaffold?

When a job cannot wait we offer a same day service for urgent work. Call us, tell us what has happened and we will tell you when we can be there.

What should I do while I wait?

Keep people away from anything that could fall, such as a loose chimney pot or tiles. Move cars from underneath and do not go up on the roof yourself.

Will my insurance pay for the scaffolding?

That depends on your policy, so check with your insurer. If they are paying for the repair, we can give you a written quote to send them.

Can you put up a temporary roof in an emergency?

Yes. Where a roof is open to the weather, sheeting or a temporary roof keeps the rain out until the repair is done.
