Frequently Asked Questions

  • What scaffold types are available for hire?

    Most hire companies offer a variety of scaffolding types to suit different tasks. These include mobile scaffold towers, fixed-frame scaffolds, and modular scaffolding for larger or complex builds. You can hire scaffold for interior painting, exterior rendering, roofing, or commercial construction work. Always ensure scaffold setup is carried out by someone with the correct training or ticket to ensure safety on site.

  • Is construction hire equipment safety-certified?

    Yes, reputable hire companies maintain all construction equipment to meet strict safety and compliance standards. Items like scaffolding, props and ladders undergo regular inspections to ensure structural integrity. When hiring, always check the condition of the equipment and ask for guidance if you're unsure how to set up or use the gear safely.

  • Can I hire scaffold for a small job at home?

    Absolutely. Scaffold isn’t just for large commercial projects—homeowners and small trades can hire compact or mobile scaffold towers for jobs like exterior painting, guttering, or maintenance. It’s a safer alternative to balancing on ladders and offers more stability and space for tools and materials.
