A trustworthy scaffolding contractor should hold a current CISRS (Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme) card for every operative on site, which confirms they have completed the relevant NVQ Level 2 in Scaffolding and passed the CITB Health, Safety and Environment test. The company itself should ideally be a member of the NASC (National Access and Scaffolding Confederation), whose members must comply with TG20 technical guidance and carry adequate public liability insurance of at least £10 million. TrustMark registration is a further indicator of a contractor who has been independently vetted for quality and trading standards compliance.
Before the scaffolder arrives, check whether your property has any restrictive covenants or is in a conservation area, as this can affect where standards and boards can be fixed or how long a licence application will take. If the scaffold will overhang a public pavement or road, the contractor will need a licence from the local highways authority, which can take one to three weeks to obtain, so factor this into your project timeline. It is also worth letting your buildings and contents insurer know that scaffold will be in place, as some policies require notification to maintain cover against unauthorised access.
Once the scaffold is erected, ask the contractor to provide a handover certificate confirming the structure has been inspected and is safe to use, which is a requirement under the Work at Height Regulations 2005. Make sure the written contract specifies how often the scaffold will be re-inspected during the hire period — NASC guidance recommends at least every seven days and after any severe weather. When the structure is struck, carry out a walk-round with the contractor to confirm no fixing points, render, or guttering have been damaged before releasing the final payment.
