Scaffolding in Sharoe Green
Sharoe Green is the part of Fulwood most people know for the Royal Preston Hospital, but for us it is streets of solid interwar semis and bungalows off Sharoe Green Lane that need roofs, chimneys and fascias looked after. We are about ten minutes away, so surveys are quick and scaffolds come down promptly once the trades are done.

No obligation. We usually reply the same day.
We are about ten minutes away, so surveys within 24 hours are normal. Most homes here have drives and gardens, so scaffolds usually sit on private land, and where one must stand on the footway we arrange the Lancashire County Council licence, £42 per 7 days with at least two working days notice. Scaffolds are erected to TG20:21 and inspected at least every 7 days, Preston City Council is the planning authority for any underlying works, and we cover the neighbouring areas too, including the rest of Fulwood, Cadley and Broughton.

Scaffolding in Sharoe Green — your questions answered
How much does scaffolding cost in Sharoe Green?
Prices start from around £450 for a single elevation on a typical semi, with most jobs between £600 and £900 for one side and £850 to £1,200 for a full two storey scaffold. Sharoe Green's bungalows often come in under those bands, and bungalow chimney stacks start from around £250 against £400 for a two storey stack. We price after a free survey, quotes always state whether VAT is included, and the price covers transport, erection, the hire period and dismantling.
How quickly can you get scaffolding up in Sharoe Green?
We are about ten minutes away, so we can usually survey within 24 hours. Most domestic scaffolds go up in 2 to 8 hours, with a typical semi taking around 3 to 5 hours on site, indicative timings we confirm at the survey. Because most Sharoe Green scaffolds sit on drives and gardens there is normally no licence lead time, so erection can often follow the survey within a few working days.
Do I need planning permission to put scaffolding up at my house in Sharoe Green?
No. Scaffolding is temporary and needs no planning permission. Consent questions only arise for the building work itself, an extension or a dormer for instance, and Preston City Council is the planning authority for Sharoe Green. A highway licence from Lancashire County Council is a separate matter and only applies if the scaffold will stand on the footway.
