As one of the area’s trusted scaffolding companies, safety is at the core of everything we do. Whether we’re supplying a domestic scaffold for a home renovation or a large construction scaffold for a commercial development, every system we install is subject to a thorough inspection process, because a secure scaffold is a safe site.

At PTG Scaffolding, we carry out detailed scaffold inspections to ensure every structure meets the latest health and safety standards. Our qualified scaffolding contractors work across Ascot, Bracknell, Maidenhead, Newbury, Reading, Slough, Staines, Windsor and wider Hampshire and Berkshire, delivering reliable inspection services for both short-term and long-term projects.

When to Inspect Scaffolds

According to the Work at Height Regulations 2005, all scaffolds must be inspected:

 Before first use
 Every 7 days during use
 After any adverse weather, damage or alteration

Regular inspections are not just a legal requirement; they’re essential to protecting workers, property and the general public. As experienced scaffolding contractors, we help our clients stay compliant and ensure the safe use of all domestic and commercial scaffolds.

WHERE WE WORK

Types of Scaffold Inspections We Offer

Initial Scaffold Inspection

Scaffolding companies must thoroughly check every scaffold before handing it over for use. This includes examining base stability, platform strength, guardrails, toe boards, and access routes. We only sign off a scaffold once it is fully safe and fit for purpose.

Weekly (7-Day) Scaffold Inspections

Ongoing inspections ensure that the scaffold remains safe over time, especially on longer projects. Our team carries out regular weekly checks, recording findings in a site log to demonstrate compliance with UK regulations.

Post-Alteration and Weather Damage Inspections

If your scaffold has been modified or subjected to strong winds, storms, or accidental impact, we provide inspections to ensure the structure remains safe for use.

End-of-Use Inspections

Before dismantling, we conduct a final safety inspection to ensure a controlled and hazard-free takedown process.
