What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Scaffolding hire for construction and refurbishment work runs through the customer accounts, with independent and temporary roof structures among the jobs described. Several customers highlight how quickly the company responds, from an initial enquiry through to the scaffold being delivered and erected, including emergency access arranged at short notice for repairs. Reliability and punctuality come up repeatedly, with crews arriving when promised and installations completed without disrupting neighbours on awkward or tight central London sites.

The quality of the finished structure is a recurring theme: reviewers describe solid, secure builds with wide platforms that allow tradespeople to work simultaneously and store materials, plus proper edge protection at every level. Clear communication is another point that comes up often, with customers noting that staff explain what is included, survey the property first and provide quotes promptly. Pricing is repeatedly described as fair and transparent, with no unexpected charges. Tidiness and the helpfulness of the crew are also mentioned, alongside their willingness to answer questions during setup. Gutter and fascia replacement, exterior refurbishment and temporary roof scaffolding are among the projects cited.

Rang around half a dozen places for quotes on a temporary roof scaffold and LX were the only ones who properly explained what they were including. Site visit was the same week, quote followed a couple of days after. There's a lot of scaffold companies in central London but most just send a generic price without seeing the building. Install took a day and a half because the building is awkward. They managed it without disrupting the neighbours. Hire ran ten weeks total.

Needed edge protection sorted urgently because the original scaffolder pulled out two days before work was meant to start. LX picked up the phone, had a team out the next morning, railings up before lunch. Saved the entire project from sliding back a fortnight. Fair price for the rush.

Needed scaffolding for some gutter and fascia replacement. Looked at a couple of options and LX had good reviews so went with them. Quoted us same week. Price was clear. They came out and measured everything before committing to a design. Scaffold went up a few days later and the job kicked off right after.

got independent scaffolding from LX for a full exterior refurb on a mid terrace property. the setup covered front and back with proper platform access at every level which meant the plasterer and window fitters could work at the same time without getting in each others way. the platforms were wide enough to actually move around on and store materials which sounds basic but ive had scaffolds before where you could barely stand. edge protection was fitted all the way round so the guys felt safe working at height. they also put in a loading ramp at ground level so heavy stuff could be wheeled up instead of carried. that saved a lot of time apparently. the whole structure stayed up for almost two months and never shifted or felt wobbly even in windy conditions. proper solid build and exactly what the job needed

Good prices and easy process. Used them for scaffolding rental London and the structure was solid and secure. Crew was helpful and explained everything clearly.
