Stay STRONG and keep STANDARDS

#AlexanderScaffold were #outbid on this job.

#Relationships went #down the #pan with this client #over the #price, we held our own and stuck to our guns.

The contracted #roofer for the #client rang us up #complaining about the scaffold #assuming it was #us and #sent me a few #pictures.

We are #disappointed that this goes on and puts a #badname for scaffold#company's and scaffolders that know what they are doing.

As a scaffold company we have to be like that horrible relative or friend that tells you things you don't want to hear. We are here to look out for you, don't be blinded by the cost. It needs to be safe and at a responsible industry rate.

Every day we hear "it's just up there and it only will be needed for 2 mins whilst we just.... "

No matter where a scaffold needs to get you to or how long a scaffold will need to be up i needs to be #right, whilst #erecting it in a #safe manner.

#Wetake the #risk of #workingatheight to minimise the risk and #avoid any#injury for #you and your #contractor, whilst up high.

You must also #remember, not only can you be #fined but you can also be#imprisoned depending upon the severity of the #offence for not upholding the Working At Height Regs 2005.

It is the #responsibility of the #employer or the person/employee who #controls work at height to make sure the working at height regulations 2005 are upheld.

If you are ever unsure there are details on #HSE web site:

http://www.hse.gov.uk/work-at-height/the-law.htm

Or if you are an existing #client you can #contact us to discuss to talk about your project, no matter how small.
