Scaffolding

Anyone on here know of a place that hires scaffolding? I'm looking at a Cuplock style system. Some may know I'm building my own Bungalow with a lot of help from mattr34, but I'm now at the stage where I can't reach the top of the walls.

There are places out there that sell the system, but none local that I know of so any info would be very helpful. I thought about the usual scaffold, but I need to raise it up later for when the roof goes on and the gables are bricked etc.

Cheers, Scott

SGB in norwich will hire it as we've used them before. You might find it'll be cheaper to get a scaffold firm in to do it rather than just hire the cuplock stuff.Seeing as it will only be a lift and a bit to plate then just the gables

D+J from yarmouth are pretty cheap.

Or you could hire some tall trestles and scaffold boards and do it that way. The hire a couple of towers for the weekend and sit them side by side to finish the gables. It's a little

Doing it that way though!

Trust me, our usual scaffold setup needs sea legs! When you get off it onto dry land you fall over :lol:

Is the chair for sitting and contemplating the work ahead
