Scaffolding in Seven Stars
Seven Stars takes its name from the old pub at the Slater Lane crossroads, and the neighbourhood around it, terraced rows and semis on the west side of Leyland, is proper bread and butter scaffolding territory. We are about 20 minutes away in Preston, and we handle everything here from single chimney stacks to full roof line scaffolds, with free surveys and fixed quotes.

We reach Seven Stars in about 20 minutes from our Preston yard via the A582 and Leyland Lane, so surveys usually happen within 24 hours. South Ribble Borough Council is the planning authority for any underlying works, and all our scaffolds are erected to TG20:21 with inspections at least every 7 days. We are also regularly working minutes away in Leyland Lane, Moss Side and Earnshaw Bridge, so mid job alterations and prompt strikes are easy to fit in.

Scaffolding in Seven Stars — your questions answered
How much does scaffolding cost in Seven Stars?
Every property is different, so we don't work off a fixed price list — each scaffold in Seven Stars is priced on its own merits, by eye and by experience. Send a couple of photos or ask for a quick site visit and you'll get a free written quote, usually the same day, with no obligation. The quote covers transport, erection, the hire period and dismantling, and always states whether VAT is included. Call 07802 373935 to get started.
Do I need a licence for scaffolding on the pavement or road in Seven Stars?
Only where the scaffold stands on or oversails the public highway, including the footpath outside your house. Some terraces around the Seven Stars crossroads front the pavement directly, and there a licence from Lancashire County Council is required under Section 169 of the Highways Act 1980 before we erect. We make the application, provide the £5 million public liability evidence and give the two working days notice the council requires. Scaffolds wholly on your own land need no licence.
Do I need full scaffolding or just a scaffold tower?
It depends on the job, not on any fixed height rule. There is no legal minimum height for scaffolding, the Work at Height Regulations 2005 apply wherever a fall could cause injury, and the choice rests on risk assessment. A tower can suit a quick, light task on an accessible elevation, but chimney work and roof jobs on the terraces around Seven Stars normally call for a properly designed scaffold with a boarded working platform. Describe the job and we will advise honestly either way.
