When it comes to construction, roofing, or solar panel installations, one crucial element is often overlooked until it’s too late: scaffolding safety.
At DC Scaffolding, based in Romsey and serving Southampton and the wider Hampshire area, we understand that well-planned, properly erected scaffolding is more than just a platform — it’s a vital part of keeping your project on track and your people protected.
🛡️ 1. Safety First — For Everyone on Site
Whether you’re a contractor or homeowner, scaffold safety should be non-negotiable. Falls from height are still one of the leading causes of accidents in the construction industry. Properly installed scaffolding reduces risk and ensures that tradespeople can carry out work confidently and efficiently.
We only use CISRS-qualified scaffolders and supply all scaffolding in compliance with TG20:21 and HSE regulations. That means peace of mind for you and protection for your team.
🧱 2. Protecting Your Property
Badly planned scaffolding doesn’t just put workers at risk — it can damage your roof, gutters, render, or garden areas.
Our scaffold designs take the specifics of each property into account. From solar panel scaffolding on bungalows to full wraparounds for roof replacements, we make sure your property is supported, not scuffed.
🕒 3. Avoiding Delays with Smart Planning
Time is money. Delays in scaffolding can throw off entire project timelines. At DC Scaffolding, we deliver prompt scaffold erection and dismantling, with clear communication throughout. Our team works closely with builders, roofers, and solar installers to keep everything moving on schedule.
