Scaffolding in Broadgate
Broadgate runs along the north bank of the River Ribble, and its handsome rows of Victorian and Edwardian terraces facing the water are a short hop from our Preston base. Riverside houses take more weather than most, so roofs, chimneys and gutter lines here tend to need attention a little sooner than streets further inland.

We can be in Broadgate within minutes of leaving the yard, which keeps surveys and strike dates quick. Several streets here open straight onto the pavement, so highway licences from Lancashire County Council are a routine part of the job, at a small weekly fee with at least two working days notice and £5 million public liability cover, all of which we arrange. We also look after the neighbouring streets in Avenham, Frenchwood and the city centre.

Scaffolding in Broadgate — your questions answered
How much does scaffolding cost in Broadgate?

How much does a chimney scaffold cost in Broadgate?
Chimney scaffolds vary more than any other job — height, roof pitch, access and whether the stack needs boarding at gutter level or a saddle over the ridge all change the design. That's why we price each chimney scaffold in Broadgate individually rather than off a rate card. Send us a photo of the stack from the street and you'll get a free written quote, usually the same day.
Do I need a licence for scaffolding on the pavement in Broadgate?
Only if the scaffold stands on or oversails the public highway, which includes the footpath. Where Broadgate frontages meet the pavement directly a licence is usually needed, obtained from Lancashire County Council under Section 169 of the Highways Act 1980 before erection. The council charges a small weekly fee and needs at least two working days notice. We make the application, supply the insurance evidence and build the lead time into the schedule. Scaffolds wholly on your own land need no licence.
