Scaffolding in Singleton

Singleton is a planned estate village, largely rebuilt in the Victorian era by the Miller family, and its distinctive red brick estate cottages with their ornate detailing still set the tone today. Scaffolding here calls for a bit of care and pride in the finish. We are about 25 minutes away via the M55 and cover Singleton alongside neighbouring Weeton.

Singleton's Victorian estate cottages are what make the village, with their decorative brickwork, steep gables and ornate chimneys, and they shape the scaffolding work too. Chimney platforms, roof scaffolds for slate repairs and careful access for repointing all need setting out with respect for the detailing, and we take pride in leaving these buildings exactly as we found them, minus the defects. The surrounding farms and newer homes add barn conversions, reroofs and solar work to the mix.

We reach Singleton in about 25 minutes from Preston, up the M55 to junction 3 and on through Weeton, which is also part of the same working round along with the lanes back towards Wharles and Roseacre. Surveys are free and usually arranged within a day or so. Fylde Council is the planning authority for the village, and as ever the scaffold itself needs no planning consent because it is a temporary structure.

Scaffolding in Singleton — your questions answered

How much does scaffolding cost in Singleton?

Guide prices in Singleton start from around £450 for a single elevation, with most jobs between £600 and £900 for one side and £850 to £1,200 for a full two storey scaffold. Chimney scaffolds start from around £400, and the village's ornate estate cottage stacks are exactly the sort of work they suit. Full scaffolds on detached properties typically run £1,400 to £2,500 and full wraps from around £1,500. Every quote follows a free survey, states whether VAT is included, and covers transport, erection, the hire period and dismantling.

Do I need planning permission to put scaffolding up at my house in Singleton?

No. Scaffolding is a temporary structure and needs no planning permission of its own. Consent questions belong to the underlying works, for which Fylde Council is the planning authority, and given Singleton's estate village character it is worth checking early whether your project touches anything with special protection. We are used to working carefully around decorative brickwork and period detailing, and we plan fixings so the building is left exactly as we found it.

Are your scaffolders qualified? What is a CISRS card?

CISRS, the Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme, is the HSE recognised competence card for scaffolders, with Labourer, Trainee, Scaffolder and Advanced Scaffolder levels backed by training courses and NVQs. Our teams hold CISRS cards appropriate to the work they do, and any card can be verified through the NOCN online checker at cardchecker.nocn.org. Ask to see cards whoever you hire, a genuine firm will never mind showing them.
