Working in Birmingham

Birmingham's housing ranges from Victorian and Edwardian terraces in areas like Erdington, Kings Heath and Moseley to inter-war semis, tower blocks and large commercial buildings. From Rugeley we reach the north of the city via the A38 and the M6 Toll.

In Birmingham many properties front directly onto the pavement, so scaffolds often need a licence from Birmingham City Council, plus lighting and pedestrian protection. In Birmingham, pavement scaffolds need a licence from Birmingham City Council, and busy roads mean deliveries are timed carefully.

In Birmingham (B postcodes), Birmingham City Council handles both planning applications and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is reached via the A38 and M6 Toll.

How we work

Before erecting anything we look at the ground, the building, any overhead cables and how the scaffold will be used, then agree the layout, number of lifts and loading requirements with you. Scaffolds are inspected and handed over in writing, and we come back to adapt them as the job progresses.

We work for both housing and commercial clients, which means we are used to tight sites, live roads, neighbouring properties and busy programmes. The same team often scaffolds for Staff4dshire Roofing Specialists and Margav Energy, so we understand what roofers and solar installers need from their access.
