Local scaffolding company serving Edgbaston

We are Birmingham-based and regularly work in Edgbaston and the surrounding areas. We understand the access challenges that come with a mix of period properties, busy routes into the city and residential streets with limited space and parking.

When you work with Glencross Scaffolding, you get:

  • • A friendly, experienced scaffolding team
  • • Clear communication from first enquiry to final dismantle
  • • Site visits where needed to assess access and constraints
  • • Scaffolds erected, adapted and removed safely and efficiently

We work closely with local builders, roofers, landlords and property owners so the scaffolding supports how you work on site, rather than getting in the way of it.

How our scaffolding service works

Working with Glencross Scaffolding on projects in Edgbaston is straightforward:

  1. Initial enquiry
    Tell us where your site is, what you are planning and when you need access.
  2. Site visit and quotation
    We will review drawings or visit the property where needed, then provide a clear written quote explaining what is included.
  3. Scaffold design and scheduling
    Once you are happy to proceed, we plan the scaffold layout, schedule our team and confirm dates for erection.
  4. Erection and handover
    Our operatives erect the scaffold safely in line with agreed methods. We explain the access arrangements and answer any questions on site.
  5. Inspections and alterations
    We can carry out regular inspections and make agreed alterations as your project moves through different stages.

    When you no longer need the scaffold, we return promptly to dismantle and remove all equipment from site.

FAQs – Scaffolding Edgbaston

  1. Do you only provide scaffolding in Edgbaston, or do you cover nearby areas too?
    We regularly provide scaffolding in Edgbaston and across nearby parts of Birmingham, including Harborne, Bearwood, Ladywood, Selly Oak, Bournbrook, Moseley and the city centre. If your project is in or around Edgbaston, get in touch and we will let you know if we can help.
  2. How much does scaffolding cost in Edgbaston?
    Scaffolding costs in Edgbaston depend on the size and height of the property, how complex the access is, how long you need the scaffold for and whether you need extras such as loading bays or stair towers. Once we know more about your project, we will provide a clear, itemised quote so you know exactly what is included.
  3. How far in advance should I book scaffolding for an Edgbaston project?
    The more notice you can give, the better – especially during busy periods. Ideally, contact us a few weeks before your planned start date so we can review the site, design the scaffold and schedule our team. If you have urgent works in Edgbaston, let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you.
  4. Can you provide scaffolding for student lets and HMOs in Edgbaston?
    Yes. We work with landlords, managing agents and contractors on student accommodation, HMOs and other rented properties in and around Edgbaston. We are used to working in occupied buildings and will plan the scaffolding to keep residents informed and disruption to a minimum.
  5. Can you help if my Edgbaston property is on a busy road or has restricted access?
    Yes. Many properties in Edgbaston sit on busy routes or have tight access and shared driveways. We will assess your site, discuss any limitations and design a scaffold that works safely within those constraints wherever possible.
  6. How long can the scaffolding stay up on my Edgbaston property?
    Your quotation will include a standard hire period for your Edgbaston project. If your works overrun, the scaffold can usually stay in place for longer as long as it remains safe and is inspected regularly. Just keep us updated on your programme and we will work with you to extend the hire if needed.
  7. Do you carry out scaffold inspections on Edgbaston projects?
    Scaffolding must be inspected by a competent person after it is erected, at least every seven days, and after severe weather or any event that could affect its stability. We can carry out inspections as part of our service on Edgbaston projects, or agree responsibilities with your principal contractor.
