Scaffolding for home extension work

What do we scaffold in Henley-on-Thames?

Henley is a historic Thames town with a large conservation area, many listed Georgian and older buildings in the centre, riverside homes, and substantial detached houses on the hills around the town. These are the jobs we do most often:

  • Roof repairs and re-roofing. A platform at the eaves with guardrails and toe boards. See roof access scaffolding.
  • Chimney repairs and repointing. A scaffold to the eaves plus a platform around the stack, from £250.
  • Extensions and loft conversions. Scaffolding that rises with the brickwork, often with a temporary roof while the old roof is open.
  • Repointing, rendering and brickwork. A full-height scaffold with boards close to the wall, with soft ties on old brick and render.
  • Windows, fascias, soffits, gutters and solar panels. Usually one or two elevations for a week or two.
  • Shopfronts and offices. Commercial scaffolding planned around trading hours and pedestrians.
  • Short, low jobs. A scaffold tower from £30 is often cheaper than a fixed scaffold. We will tell you at the survey if a tower would do.

How much does scaffolding cost in Henley-on-Thames?

Most house scaffolding in Henley-on-Thames costs between £400 and £2,500, depending on the size of the house, how many sides are scaffolded and how long it stays up. These are guide prices for a standard hire period. Your quote is fixed once we have seen the property.

House or jobWhat is scaffoldedGuide price
One side of a houseFront or rear elevation£400 to £700 total
Two-storey terraced houseFront and back£700 to £900 a month
Two-storey semi-detachedThree sides£850 to £1,200 a month
Two-storey detachedAll four sides£1,000 to £1,500 a month
Chimney scaffoldEaves plus stack platformFrom £250
Loft conversionRoof access, often two or three sides£1,000 to £2,000 or more
Scaffold towerHire for low, short jobsFrom £30

Four things move the price: the height and length of the scaffold, how easy the access is, how long you need it, and whether it stands on the pavement. A pavement licence from Oxfordshire County Council costs £180 for the first week, or £220 on a bus route, and we apply for it on your behalf. Town-centre jobs on East and West St Helen Street, Stert Street and Bath Street usually need a licence; estate houses with a drive rarely do.

Scaffolding for Henley's listed centre, riverside and Regatta season

Every Henley-on-Thames job starts with a free survey, and these are the local conditions we plan for:

  • Listed town-centre buildings. Hart Street, Bell Street, Duke Street and the Market Place have many listed buildings in a conservation area. We use ground-tied or buttressed designs and soft protection so historic fabric is not drilled or marked.
  • Riverside homes. Near the Thames the ground can be soft or wet. We use sole boards and base plates sized for the ground so the scaffold stays level.
  • Large detached houses. Bigger homes around the town often need taller scaffolds, loading bays and temporary roofs for re-roofing and extensions.
  • Regatta season. Henley Royal Regatta brings heavy traffic and road restrictions in early summer, so we plan deliveries and licences around it.

How scaffold hire works in Henley-on-Thames

  1. Free site survey. We look at the property, the access and the work your trades are doing.
  2. Fixed written quote. One price covering delivery, erection, the agreed hire period and removal.
  3. Pavement licence, if needed. We apply to Oxfordshire County Council, which asks for at least five working days’ notice.
  4. Erection. Most houses in Henley-on-Thames are scaffolded in under a day.
  5. Handover and inspections. The scaffold is checked before first use and at least every 7 days after that.
  6. Removal. Tell us when your trades have finished and we take it down.

Yes, but we plan around it. Road restrictions and traffic in early summer can affect deliveries and pavement licences, so we agree erection and dismantling dates with you in advance.
