Scaffold Inspection Services

Statutory 7-day inspections under the Work at Height Regulations 2005; post-erection and pre-handover inspections; inspections after bad weather, alteration or damage; independent monitoring for ongoing projects; and specialist inspections for complex scaffolds, towers and access systems.

Qualified consultants with real scaffolding experience, including former scaffold operatives holding CISRS advanced inspection cards, NEBOSH qualifications, PASMA instructor credentials and IOSH technical membership.

Date, time and location; the inspector's name and qualifications; scaffold type and purpose; observations on stability, guardrails, access, ties, bracing and materials; defects found; recommended actions and timescales; and a clear statement on whether the scaffold is safe to use.

Yes. It follows the Work at Height Regulations 2005, which require scaffolds to be inspected before first use, every 7 days in use, and after any event likely to affect stability.

Independent inspection gives impartial assurance, more credibility with clients and regulators, reduced liability, and inspectors with advanced qualifications and no conflict of interest.

The unsafe part should be taken out of use immediately, repaired by qualified people, then re-inspected, with findings and actions recorded.

Documentation issued when a scaffold is erected and ready, confirming it has been inspected and is safe to use. It is best practice rather than always a legal requirement.
