The vendor has been in the industry for many years and established this professional and competitive company 8 years ago, providing comprehensive scaffolding contracting services to construction companies and well known national businesses. It has grown since to become a significant enterprise, with a reputation for the quality of its products and service, its professionalism, honesty and reliability.
The business benefits from its professional resource team of scaffolders, who in turn are backed up by the solid company reputation, with significant successful experience taken from industry and main contract backgrounds.
The company has established supply relationships with its suppliers and has excellent knowledge of the market. It has a superb team of experienced staff from the top down with strong levels of expertise to provide first class installations in terms of quality, fitting, scheduling and price.
This robust and successful business is continuing to grow in turnover and profits and is perfectly poised for investment and to exploit new growth, particularly driven by increasing demand.

Short and Long Term Scaffolding
Temporary Roofing Scaffolding
Domestic Roof Access Scaffolding
Commercial Support Scaffolding
It is well known that all scaffolding companies are obliged to provide each scaffolder with the correct safety wear and PPE, in addition the company also ensures every member of the team has regular training on all relevant safety issues. This guarantees compliance and keeps the companys scaffolding services at the peak of competitiveness at all times.
Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements

These represent significant future opportunities to a new owner and there is no doubt that turnover and profits could increase in line with a more widely active marketing strategy.
