Step 1 of 6What type of property or site is it?

This adjusts the starting allowance for access and complexity.

Step 2 of 6What is the closest scaffold layout?

Choose the best starting point. The final scope can change after photographs or survey.

Step 3 of 6Roughly how large is the scaffold?

Approximate measurements are fine. Around three metres per storey is a useful height guide.

Best estimate is fine. Photographs and a survey can correct the dimensions before the final quotation.
Step 4 of 6Which area and hire period?

Travel and hire length affect the guide. Availability outside the core area is reviewed case by case.

Step 5 of 6Any extras or access constraints?

Select everything that may apply. It is better to flag an unknown than force an unrealistically low estimate.

Step 6 of 6Where should we send and review the estimate?

The result is shown immediately after submission and stored for the team to follow up.

This is a guide estimate only. A final quotation depends on access, site survey, permits, loading, design and safety requirements.
