What do we scaffold in Charlbury?

Charlbury is a small Cotswold town in the Evenlode valley, inside the Cotswolds National Landscape. Much of the town is honey-coloured stone, with a conservation area and many listed buildings. 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 Charlbury?

Most house scaffolding in Charlbury 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 job	What is scaffolded	Guide price
One side of a house	Front or rear elevation	£400 to £700 total
Two-storey terraced house	Front and back	£700 to £900 a month
Two-storey semi-detached	Three sides	£850 to £1,200 a month
Two-storey detached	All four sides	£1,000 to £1,500 a month
Chimney scaffold	Eaves plus stack platform	From £250
Loft conversion	Roof access, often two or three sides	£1,000 to £2,000 or more
Scaffold tower	Hire for low, short jobs	From £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 Charlbury's Cotswold stone and steep streets

Every Charlbury job starts with a free survey, and these are the local conditions we plan for:

Cotswold stone cottages. Most older homes are built of soft local stone. We use soft ties and protection so stone, lime mortar and joinery are not damaged.
Listed buildings. Around Church Street, Market Street and Sheep Street many buildings are listed. We use ground-tied or buttressed designs where ties are not allowed.
Sloping streets. Charlbury is built on a hillside, so we level scaffolds with adjustable base plates and sole boards.
Narrow lanes. Tight streets and lanes in the town and villages mean we plan lorry access and parking before the job starts.
