Why our quote looks different
Every scaffold quote itemises the same way.
Builders get quotes that are pages apart for the same job because cheap scaffolders don’t price the design, the certificate or the inspections. Here’s everything that’s in ours.
The scaffold scope sheet
- 1 Design + duty rating. Engineered to the load your trades carry, light, medium or heavy, not guessed.
- 2 Engineer design certificate. Required over four metres or for any non-standard load. Signed, not assumed.
- 3 SWMS, before boots. A job-specific safe-work method statement, on site before anyone climbs.
- 4 Erect + dismantle, fixed. Both priced on the page, with a firm install date and a dismantle date.
- 5 Weekly hire rate. A clear per-week rate and the included weeks, so there is no surprise hire creep.
- 6 Green Scaftag handover. A dated tag on every access point, so anyone on site knows it is certified.
- 7 Public protection. Gantry, hoarding, debris netting where the job meets the footpath or the street.
If a quote doesn’t show these lines, you can’t compare it, and you don’t know what’s been cut.

Filming soon · 8–12 min
How fast can you get scaffold up?
Most single and double-storey jobs are surveyed within two business days and erected in one. You get a firm install date on the quote, not a rolling maybe.
How much does scaffolding cost?
It depends on the height, the duration and the access. We quote a fixed erect-and-dismantle price plus a clear weekly hire rate, both on the page. As a guide, a single-storey domestic job starts around $1,800 and a multi-storey commercial scaffold runs well into five figures. See the pricing page for indicative bands.
Do you provide a design certificate and SWMS?
Yes. Any scaffold over four metres carries an engineered design certificate, and every job ships with a job-specific SWMS before we set foot on site. We are licensed with SafeWork NSW, number SB-00000.
Do you handle council approval and footpath permits?
Yes. When a scaffold sits over a footpath or the road, it needs a council hoarding or road-occupancy permit. We prepare the documentation and manage the application so the job is compliant before anyone climbs.
How much notice do you need, and what if I keep it longer?
A week of notice is ideal, though we often turn jobs around faster. If your trades run over, you stay on the agreed weekly hire rate, no penalty, just tell us before the dismantle date and we will extend it.
Can I just hire the gear, or do you erect it?
We design, erect, inspect and dismantle, because over four metres that is licensed high-risk work and the certificate and tag depend on it being built right. We do not drop unbuilt gear on a domestic site.
What insurance do you carry, and who is liable?
We hold public liability cover of $20M and carry the high-risk work licence the job requires. The scaffold is certified, tagged and inspected by us for the life of the hire, so the access is our responsibility, not your exposure.
How is the scaffold inspected once it is up?
We inspect and document every seven days, and after any alteration, impact or weather event. The register lives on site and is emailed to your site manager.
Is it safe for my trades and my family?
Every scaffold is built to AS/NZS 1576, handed over on a green Scaftag, and inspected weekly. If it gets altered, it is re-tagged before anyone climbs it.
