Scaffolding in Treales
Treales is the kind of village where the scaffold wagon has to be driven with care, a knot of cottages and working farms on the winding lanes north east of Kirkham. We know the lanes well from our Preston base, about 20 minutes away, and we handle everything from cottage chimney stacks to barn conversion projects here.

The lanes into Treales are narrow and winding, so we plan wagon access and unloading at the survey stage, which is easy to arrange given we are only about 20 minutes away in Preston, coming through Kirkham. Wharles and Roseacre share the same lanes and the same parish, and we cover both, along with Wesham and Salwick a few minutes away in either direction. Fylde Council handles any planning consent the underlying works might need.

Scaffolding in Treales — your questions answered
How much does scaffolding cost in Treales?
As a guide, prices in Treales 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. Cottage chimney scaffolds start from around £400, gable ends from £350, and barn conversion or farmhouse projects are priced to the building, full detached scaffolds typically £1,400 to £2,500. Every job is surveyed free first, quotes state whether VAT is included, and the price covers transport, erection, the hire period and dismantling.
Do I need a licence for scaffolding on the pavement or road in Treales?
Only if the scaffold stands on or oversails the public highway. In Treales that is the exception rather than the rule, since most cottages and farms have gardens and yards the scaffold can stand in. Where a cottage does front the lane directly, Section 169 of the Highways Act 1980 applies and the licence comes from Lancashire County Council, £42 per 7 days with at least two working days notice, and we handle the application as part of the job.
How long can I keep the scaffolding, and what if the job overruns?
Our fixed price includes a standard hire period, in line with the UK norm of 6 to 8 weeks, covering transport, erection and dismantling. Renovation and barn conversion projects around Treales often run longer than a straightforward reroof, so we state the weekly extension rate on the quote from day one, typically £20 to £75 per week depending on scaffold size, and there are no surprises if your programme stretches.
