What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Home renovations, chimney repairs and solar panel installations recur among the projects described in feedback for this Southampton firm, and customers consistently note that the structures delivered are secure, well planned and matched to the access each property required. Dan and Ryan are singled out by name, with crews portrayed as punctual, polite and knowledgeable, arriving when agreed and keeping clients informed from the initial enquiry through to dismantling.

Tidiness comes up often, reviewers stressing that sites were left in good order once the tubes and boards were taken down, while others point to competitive quotes and the value obtained for the money spent. Awkward jobs are handled without fuss, including a removal completed in heavy rain and difficult conditions, and an installation where the finished scaffold met the brief exactly. Safety features are described as standard, and the team is repeatedly called easy to deal with, personable and diligent throughout. Repeat custom and referrals feature prominently, with customers stating they would engage the firm again for future building work.

Loud, inconsiderate, entitled, litters cigarettes, argues with public

Fantastic service from start to finish. Our project required five levels of scaffolding on a three-storey Grade II listed house. It wasn't a straightforward job, especially with the scaffold needing to wrap around the chimney. Dan immediately inspired confidence when he came to quote. I was concerned about how the scaffolding would be fixed around the chimney and the impact it would have on the roof, but he took the time to explain exactly how it would be done and was completely upfront about what to expect. The whole team were brilliant - hardworking, polite and professional throughout. Sonia was also really helpful in the office, recommending a great roofing company when ours let us down. They also liaised directly with the roofers and returned early to remove the chimney section of the scaffold once the repointing had been completed, helping to keep the whole project on schedule. Excellent communication throughout, nothing was too much trouble, and I'd happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable scaffolding company.

This is the second time I’ve used this company on my self build house. They have provided both full and partial outside access scaffolding installations and an inside ‘birdcage’.The site is very tight and awkward and the guys have done brilliant jobs being competitive, flexible, efficient and friendly. I am a retired chartered surveyor and I know how difficult the job could have been, but their approach and implementation , together with their respect of neighbours etc., have all been excellent. I would recommend them highly

Easy to deal with, nice well thought out scaffolding that was secure with the right access I needed. Just for perspective We install solar and use lots of scaffolding and this exactly what we asked for and we dont often get that.
