Your Renovation Guide to Home Scaffolding

If you’re planning a new project or need to access new heights, it pays to learn more about home scaffolding solutions.

Read on for everything you need to know about different types of home scaffolding.

When to Use Scaffolding

Scaffolding is essential for working safely at heights. Generally, scaffolding is required when working at heights of over 6 feet. Any personnel working above ten feet should also have fall protection.

When working at an elevated height for long periods, you should consider home scaffolding. It provides a stable surface and increases handling efficiency.

When building a home, scaffolding allows for the faster and safer building of the superstructure up to the wall plate. This provides access for roofers, joiners, and carpenters at later stages in the build. It also allows for efficient demolition and rebuilds.

Types of Home Scaffolding

Choosing the right scaffold system for your next building project will increase both safety and efficiency. Here, we’ll take a look at some common home scaffolding systems:

Trestle Scaffolding

Trestle scaffolding consists of supporting frames, and horizontal planks or metal surfacing.

Trestle systems are portable, quick to set up, and versatile for home renovation. They require a level ground surface to be set up safely.

Check out scaffolding from Badger Ladder to learn more.

Steel Scaffolding

Steel scaffolding is extremely strong and durable, making it perfect for heavy-duty DIY projects. It consists of steel tubes, scaffolding planks, and fixing accessories.

Steel scaffolding is ideal for larger building projects where operatives will need height access for longer periods. It can be used in almost any construction situation.

Patented Scaffolding

Also constructed from steel, patented scaffolding uses specialized fittings to allow easy height adjustments without dismantling.

It is easy to erect and disassemble, making it useful for short-term home renovation projects. Patented scaffolding is prefabricated for simplicity.

Cantilever Scaffolding

Cantilever scaffolding is constructed at an outward angle from the building. The structure is supported by ‘needles’ which pass through the walls of the building.

This allows it to bridge obstructions and gain access to harder-to-reach locations. It also reduces the risk of damage to existing works and is often used for renovation projects.

Scaffolding Made Simple

So, that’s your guide to home scaffolding made simple.

Choosing the right scaffolding for the job will make the job safer, simpler, and more efficient. By familiarizing yourself with each system, you can make the educated choice for your next building project.
