Services
Scaffolding Solutions
We design and install comprehensive scaffolding systems for construction and industrial sites. Our services include conventional tube & fitting, system scaffolding, and specialized solutions like CUPLOK. With 3.2mm lightweight galvanised tubes and EN74-compliant fittings, we ensure safe, durable structures for complex projects. Clients benefit from our NASC membership and 100 years of engineering expertise.
Mastclimbers
Our MASTCLIMBERS provide efficient access for high-rise buildings and modular construction. These mast climbing work platforms offer stable work areas with high load capacities. Ideal for cladding, glazing, and bridge repairs, they reduce crane dependency and public disruption. We supply, operate, and maintain these systems for optimal project productivity.
Hoists
We supply and maintain Alimak Scando hoists and Morris chain hoists for personnel and materials. Our fleet includes environmentally friendly models like the Scando 650. With nationwide support, we provide safe vertical access solutions for projects of all sizes, from 8-week hires to long-term contracts.
Safety Systems
Our safety programs include fall protection, edge guarding, and compliance training. We implement BrandSafway's five safety pillars and conduct behaviour-based observations. Services cover site audits, safety equipment supply, and training programs aligned with UK health and safety regulations.
Digital Services
We offer digital tools like the Inspection Manager App for real-time asset tracking and compliance monitoring. Our BrandNet platform optimizes access planning through 3D design and virtual simulations. These technologies enhance project efficiency and documentation accuracy for clients.
